I've never seen it, I've no intention of ever seeing it. I've no interest in any of the reality stuff that ITV2 and E4 constantly seem to have on. Plus Bob Mortimer finding it funny doesn't help as I only ever found him and his mate funny if I was absolutely pissed. I’m a late entrant to the Bob Mortimer fan club, in the 90s it felt like I was the only person in the country that didn’t find shooting stars remotely amusing. Him and Paul Whitehouse are superb on Gone Fishing though and his first novel is well worth a read! Totally agree. Gone Fishing is a triumph of humour and genuine friendship. I absolutely rolled with laughter reading his book. |

Getting back to the basics of this thread. From what I can see KNs plan is in the short term to stabilise the club financially and longer term to grow the club through increased income not debt. Which whilst normal business practice in the real world seems to evade football. People question his long term plan. May I suggest he will develop a long term plan once his people have had the time to assess how this may be achieved. I have been involved in a number of business takeovers and whilst the new owners have had plenty of ideas of how to grow the business before they come in its only when you take control that you can test these ideas, perhaps change your plans etc, etc. The guy has only had a few months so far

The question that this does raise (and it is a good explanation) is: Why didn't KN submit a larger budget? What was the constraint? Was it choice or was it regulatory? That all said we still have budget available so until the window closes we don't know the real impact (of FFI and budget). I don't think that hoping the current squad can be competitive in the period between the window closing and opening in January. We know how tough January is so better we add now, if possible. Exactly. The question is; who submitted the tiny (by normal championship standards) budget for the club... and why? It is a pertinent question and one that could do with an answer. Let me say I can live with us not having a "big" budget but it is the way that the detail has been studiously avoided that is a little more concerning. The way the situation has been presented is almost as if we are bound by the EFL i.e. "you can't have a budget bigger than....". As you say why couldn't we have submitted a more substantial budget? There will be a reason so why not trust people with the truth? If it is the budget is all that Mr Nagle can afford/wants to put in then, without disclosing absolute numbers, tell us. I do think Mr Nagle is a decent guy and I have heard nothing to worry me about his motives but we are coming off 4 incredibly poor seasons on the pitch, with one outlying outstanding season that we couldn't build on. There is only so much fans will accept given that background. The positive balance to this is that I have seen enough from the players we have and from Neil that there is a foundation that we can use. The window is still 9 days away from closing so there is time to get fresh faces in. I do however think those fresh faces, and I only think we need 2 or 3 better than what we have (I make that sound easy - I appreciate it isn't, especially if you are financially hamstrung), but we do need those players. Get them and we will be secure in this league, maybe even threaten higher up the table. Don't get them and it is a real battle, for the 5th season in 6. I believe Neil and the players will put the effort in but should we aspire to a little better? Can we afford to aspire to be a little better? I could go into a long assessment of the mistakes of the recent past but it won't help and we can't change that now. I think Mr Nagle does have a long term vision, which I welcome. He however needs to be aware of the relative disappointment of what we have seen on the pitch in the recent past. We need to see something to believe in in the short term. As wonderful/miraculous Neil's rescue act was last year we can't keep stumbling through seasons hoping to stay in the Championship. At some point the battling won't be enough. So to return to the original point I would like to ask if the budget position can be placed into context of the rest of the Championship and what the longer term funding strategy is (with the same context). If we are looking to drive the academy and drive revenue from the stadium, and surrounding facilities, that won't be a quick "fix". Given that is the case what should we expect in the immediate seasons? We all know that results on the pitch is the primary driver of opinion. If we struggle the budget question will become the main thing that Mr Nagle will be judged by, fairly or not. For that reason as much transparency as possible would be welcome. |

My speculation is it was down to the timing. There was a date in March by which contracts had to be exchanged, to avoid administration. KN's budget and proof of funds to support that would have needed to be in place at that time. I know KN and his team provided his personal statement quickly and openly to the old HTFC ownership even prior to NDA's being formally signed...but maybe its easy to quickly prove you have access to £15m (as a random number) to cover a "low budget" plan for the next 2 to 3 years, built on a club potentially/likely being in League 1 on takeover...but somewhat trickier to quickly demonstrate you can shake out double that and also revitalise the clubs own revenue streams. Once all the forms were in with the EFL, its seemingly irrelevant that they took weeks/months to complete and approve the takeover even if KN and his team potentially could have provided further proof of funds or set out a more robust and larger budget in the interim. We're likely operating as a League 1 club at the moment in real terms, for compliance purposes. |

It's a good point and makes sense, I've never been shooting for more money to be thrown about but it would be very easy for Kevin and his team to just clarify the situation. It would help the fans have a full understanding of the task. |

I don't think anyone is "hiding" things but I do think those in charge maybe cautious of upsetting the fanbase. I suppose I can see the point but I just prefer to know where we stand. It also explains why Mr Nagle was content to take Town on had we been relegated to League One. For me, the sooner we can look to how we can improve on the pitch the better. Maybe Mr Nagle is looking to get additional investment in the overall project and we're in a holding pattern? |

Could be a case of Nagle having to operate on the budget set by the previous regime this season which highlights how important keeping Warmock was, and he's also actively seeking out new investment for next season and the years to come. As you say it would be good if we had more knowledge on the subject it could be they're keeping quiet until the transfer window is closed and they'll be more informative after. |

Struggle on the pitch and the issue of budget and FFI will become more of a problem. Get results, and add to the squad, it is less of a point of debate. Hopefully those in charge understand that and have read the room. |

Nothing winds me up more with minders football than fans clamouring for any new signings and if the club don’t make them then it’s a lack of ambition. I’d rather they be right and improve us, and for the record I believe we need to add at least one before the deadline but I’d rather we aren’t wasting money on any signing just for some relief on social media.
The high level position changes have been positive and look to be strong. That’s long term vision if you ask me. Not spunking money up the wall on new construction players hoping for a quick fix

Who is saying they just want us to sign anyone even if they’re shit ? Can you prove that? Like it or not we do need a couple of quality players, and quickly. |

We need at least a couple. It’s been a very underwhelming start to the new era in terms of the squad.
Only times we’ve been successful recently we largely had a new squad of players ready for Wagner and Carlos come pre-season. Now we are back to building on the job again, which was a disaster last season. At least the manager is experienced this time round though.

Not spunking money up the wall on new construction players hoping for a quick fix The thing is when you leave it late you're usually scraping the bottom of the barrel and being reactive as opposed to proactive. The only reason clubs usually do that is because they're either skint or their recruitment team isn't delivering... or both. I'm sure Warnock had many players in mind as soon as he took the job but we obviously aren't able to pay what's needed hence we're approaching the end of the window and still looking. In the past this had resulted in us bringing in sub standard ill suited players. |

Nagle set the budget, its got nowt to do with "the previous regime". Presumably he took some advice from DH and the rest of 'the previous regime', otherwise he would have been guessing. I would suspect KN has set the budget close to what DH was going to do, with (hopefully 🤞) some room to spend on transfer fees built in as well. |

It doesn’t float his boat. He doesn't like the cast. No flies on him |
