Wasn’t it something like 40m quid needed before we start spending, and to avoid another potential points deduction? Monga a great start but we probably need those Fatawu, Souttar and Nelson fees cumulative before we see someone signed for a price. 

PSR doesn't apply in league 1, we can spend 65% of our turnover on wages.

We still have to comply the periods we were, and might by in other leagues.

RM said he was expecting new arrivals this week...

 

We can't be sure what 'project' he was sold but just like those that came and went before him, I suspect he is starting to realise he shouldn't believe a word they say.

Just par for the course, the latest manager to be lied to. 

 

Insane that managers speaking to us about a job here don't spoke to the reams of managers that we've had recently about what it's like here. I'm sure the LMA facilitate that elsewhere.

Just incorrect.

RM's actual words (when asked about TRANSFERS, not "arrivals" so both signings and sales) :  “Yes, I think so," "Who and when I haven’t got a clue, I’m sure we’ll update you as and when. The situation we’re in, with the size of the squad, the amount of interest we have in some of our players, it’s only natural that things will happen and start turning as they have done this week. I expect more to happen this week and whatever we’ll do, we’ll be happy with."

A couple days later Fatawu was sold confirming what he said. He never promised signings this week, there's no indication he was "lied to", you guys just fell for a click bait tweet or read something from someone else without confirming what he actually said for yourself. 

That's not what I was referring to, but they're some pretty quotes that you copied in.

We were bringing in transfers before when we went Spain 

according to Martin …..

now we’re bringing in targets within the week

I think that too a little.

 

I think we'll have another couple of frees and Loans thats about it.

 

But it could be, that we'd lined up a CB, but none of the CB's have gone for example. Same with Archie Collins or Smallbone, we were expecting Skipp to move on.

 

Though that doesn't excuse the still lack of a senior striker.

Given the lack of urgency and the fact our squad needs serious surgery in order to compete at the top end of the division, I think it's fair to say KP don't give a jot about promotion and have effectively thrown the towel in, hoping a buyer bails them out so they can walk away blameless.

 

Happy to be proved wrong and I hope we get some quality through the door, but the signs are there....

OK, but we can't do anything about it now. The 30th June deadline has passed.

They are still 3 year rolling periods.

Speaking after City's 1-0 win over Cadiz in Spain on Wednesday, Martin outlined the club's transfer plans and stressed the importance of not rushing into bringing players in. "I think there will be a lot happening between now and the end of the transfer window," he said.

 

"People will leave, people come. I’ve been in a situation at Southampton before after relegation, you can’t get too stressed or anxious or being in a rush to do things, it has to be the right time for us.

 

"I expect us to have one or two faces before the first game for sure, at least, and the squad will look different.”

 

He added: “We’re really calm and really clear because we have real clarity on who we want, what we want and why we want it. The most important category is that people want to come here and play and are desperate to be part of something and help us be successful.

 

"I think it’s really difficult to say it’s going to be a player this day, but in the next couple of weeks, I expect to have players in to help us and I’ll probably expect one or two to go out as well.

 

"But things in football can change very quickly. We’re excited about the business that we’ve done already, how much they’re going to us and we’re excited about what we can do and what we’re hoping to do.”

 

Welcoming new signings during the tour of Spain hasn't been ruled out, but Martin has admitted that it seems unlikely right now. He said: “If it’s the right time, we’ll get them over. I don’t know if we’ll see any this week being really honest, but it’ll be nice if we can.”

This is a crazily unfair system, we're still at risk of point deductions under PSR but teams that have been in league 1 or lower for 3 consecutive seasons aren't at any risk of PSR point deductions. 

 

If we breach again then I see another legal challange on the horizon.
