One last thing any money gained by achieving promotion or bonus money from cup runs etc does not count towards the cap.
So theoretically this gives us an advantage if we choose to spend.

If I read that right, does that mean any cup run income would HAVE to be spent on facilities, youth development etc rather than on player wages because it sits outside the cap? Or does it mean that if we have a good cup run out 'pot' goes beyond the 2.5 million?

Anyone heard any info/rumours of trialists training with us? Would covid rules prevent this?

The last big name wage player we brought in was who? Kevin Van Veen maybe? The half season he came in for he had the worst season output for goals or assists of any striker we have had in the last 5 years. Marvin Sordell, a recognisable name from his time in the championship is second worst.
Morton, Marquis and Collins are in the top 5 and yet were all loan signings, were they Aldi signings?
Can we please stop with all the unnecessary negativity, we just got promoted and the transfer window still has 2 months to go!
Spot on your lordship. My thoughts entirely. STOP WHINGING! You'll probably find 99% of Cobbs fans are (reasonable) optimistic about next season. We seem to have quite a few of the 1% posting on here! FFS Its bad enough when they start in the season, anyone would think we where heading for the National Lge. FFS WE GOT PROMOTED!

Richard Keogh signs for MK To be fair that is a very impressive signing for them
Impressive signing, but still out injured until at least October, possibly Christmas...bit of a punt which could work.

Sad ending though, Frank Brierley. He fell off the back of a lorry.

Bit weird about where the salary cap is - unless the cap only counts for Covid. £2.5 million won't be far what we're normally spend anyway, and it does seem to disproportionately affect the bigger clubs who could have fairly afforded higher wages with bigger gate receipts. Probably should have made it scaleable based on attendances or something to make it a little fairer - though I imagine it'll be more than enough for this particular season.

Few bids in for players, one potential Championship loanee amongst them
Didn’t hear anything about a signing being announced today but who knows
Maybe something tomorrow but it’s a bit up in the air, unrelated to the supposed signing mentioned on here previously
Hearing that the champ loanee is done to be announced early next week, don’t know position, parent club etc

Hopefully it’s Morton back on a season long loan.... Pretty sure WBA are a prem team now...

That seems to be too obscure to be a complete guess - have you heard something?

It wouldn't surprise me, as I think Curle has made it clear in his last interview that he wants to find players who have not been able to reach what he considers their potential so he can develop them. This would be much like Oliver.
