Alternatives?

Pot of gold, loadsamoney, transfer stash, jackpot, escape cash.

It's pretty accurate because it is something that is held back for something that might happen later.

This meant that the board were concerned about backing him too heavily, particularly knowing that it was likely he’d be gone pretty soon, meaning budget is available now.
Extraordinary (if true) that seemingly none of this was discussed at the interview stage.

Danny Murphy on the debate last night went over this and said he was smart in the window. At fulham he brought in the likes of zamora, Gera, Duff. Now all be it they aint going to set the world alight but they were all experienced and he got the best out of them!

Could be it WAS discussed and therefore this is why FDB has gone so quickly.

Depends on what market you're looking at.

Skorupski - £6M
Traore up to £15M
Tosun £10M
That would leave £10Mish for a number 10 although not a priority with Loftus Cheek.

No idea really. Just using the term 'war' in relation to football seems way over the top.

War is a state of armed conflict between societies. It is generally characterized by extreme aggression, destruction, and mortality, using regular or irregular military forces. An absence of war is usually called "peace".

Rather spend a bit more and get Mattia Perin or Alex Meret as a proper long term top tier goalkeeper.

Skorupski is decent but I think we should aim higher.

I believe it when we see it. Lots of names mentioned but bids put in at 10.30 on deadline day. It would be nice if deals were done before the window.

When he was at Fulham one of the first signings he made in the January transfer window was Brede Hangeland, who he had worked with before, to shore up the defence

After staying up in the summer window he bought dependable experienced Premier League players such as Mark Schwarzer, Zoltan Gera, Damien Duff, Jimmy Bullard, Andrew Johnson and 'discovered' teenager Chris Smalling

Nothing exciting just solid signings that you know what you are going to get. The type of signings I would expect Pulis or Allardyce to make at a club the size of Fulham, Palace or West Brom

It's not Football Manager though is it?

Players cost more in January and plus clubs will know we are "desperate".

I think it would be easier to shift them come January. Thier contracts will have run down and sadly for us, we will probably get less but it is surely better to cut our losses with the likes of Mutch and Lee?
We are losing so much on managers that another couple of million won't matter in the long run.

Based on what we were rumoured to have paid for both they are probably valued in the accounts at c£2.5m.

Possibly. Maybe de Boer went along with the names suggested at the interview and then turned around and said I want these targets instead, which were not considered upgrades or suitable for the Prem by SP. There was a claim on here SP knew he made a mistake within 2 weeks of the appointment. Maybe transfers were the first indicator, and why business was conducted (or should I say attempted) so late in the window.

This :

Chungy can just eff off, personally don't care if we get a £10 for him.
Kelly can go too, though in fairness he always tried his best, even if that usually fell short.
Ward and Delaney too can go.

Getting rid of those lot immediately reduces our mistake(s) risk level.

Wonder if its a story put out to make the existing players fear for their places.
Most haven't been too bothered so far this season, it seems!
