The previous signing was over £3m too, so they're definitely well on their way to that £20m. whilst a top 10 budget sounds good. In league 1 the top 5 budget is millions ahead of where we are at right now. All this is fine if they get success from doing the business they have done. Its not nailed on they will though when they are going to be a team others want to beat due to their transfer activity and dropping from the championship. At least they,ll be the team everyone wants to beat unlike wrexham were.

Tbh i dont understand why Because they are just another football team when playing away, its not like the owners are at every away game like atleast 1 seems to be at home games

Northampton have had to cancel their game in alicante as they were due to fly out this morning but the flight got cancelled and won't travel for another week or 2 now.
Hopefully its a behind close door game they had planned

Stevenage FC staying at same hotel as me in Jersey, had a chat with one of their coaching team, of which there seemed to be loads, similar to County, he said they have no injured players at present. One other observation, footballers all have great hair these days, no Charlton, Ralph Coates, Terry Hennessy types any more, huge shame.

Good point, they could have worn a syrup but probably too risky during games.

Wrexham reported to be interested in John McAtee from Luton, I think he'd be ideal for us but probably too expensive.

How much do we think our courtyard brings in?
1,500 capacity and let’s assume a fairly low average spend of £10-15. Between £345-517k? In reality probably more than that as it’s always full of families.
Pays for itself eventually without needing to charge extra on matchday tickets!? Crazy they’re doing that, but another example of them only doing things that can generate extra income rather than genuinely improving the matchday experience.

Read that as 1,500 in the courtyard to begin with! Would be like sardines!
