Nobody in the championship is spending except Fulham who have a money owner, we have brought in the players that Ismael wanted and he likes a small squad. I also think we will bring in one more and could possibly sell one.
For this division we have a strong squad and anybody who throws we have no back up in case of injuries, well what about the other 23 teams we have a stronger back up than most of these and a better wage structure.
I am like the rest of you and dislike the owner but saying that every penny that comes into the club goes into his pocket is wrong.

Boss Valerien Ismael admits Albion’s hopes of further signings before Tuesday’s transfer deadline rests on moving players out.
Asked about the chance of signing more players before the window closes, Ismael replied: “I think at the minute we are satisfied with the last signing.
“I think only if something happens in the outgoings, then we can do something in the incomings.”
(Express & Dingle Website)

Our out goings were 16 in number:
Pereira, Harper, Hegazy, Gibbs, Grosicki, Edwards, Austin, Peltier, Field, Lonergan, Sawyers, Robson-Kanu, Clarke, Ivanovic, Diagne and Yokuslu.

Our incomings are 4 or 5:  Reach, Mowatt, Clarke, Hugill and is there one other?  I can't remember

Castro: looked like he has potential given the arsenal showing unlike Reach imo

So why do we need to move people out before bringing anyone else in?

We live by our means.Sheffield Utd haven’t bought anyone Fulham sent back a load of loans. We have one of the strongest squads in the Championship  wil be there or there about s come May. If we bought 3 players at 5 mill each add wages let’s say 20 thousand a week for each so that’s a total outlay of just over 18 mill which we would then go into the red for . For me that’s pointless we need stability to survive, not recklessness to go under,
We will always disagree on this Blue but I like our squad and our manager and I think we will have a successful season.

I'm with you on that. We could of course being led a merry dance and have a pot of money available but pretending we are bankrupt. Time will tell.
As a club we have never made public what we have or don't have.
