That isn't even walking around money for a PL club...it is more like spare change at the bottom of your pocket.
I'm so glad that those in charge don't think like this.
How much money do you think RFC will make this year out of interest?
How much do we stand to lose if we go right back down? As incredibly difficult as it is to get to the PL it is much more difficult to stay there.
winchester_royal And you think signing Zaha will guarantee our survival?
Dare to Dr£am And Pog has a release clause if we go down.

Nothing in life is "guaranteed" but any/all additions to the squad will make it that much less difficult...

Yes but it's up to the management to decide how much effect each addition will have, and then come to a price they would be willing to pay.
Personally I think £6m is an awful lot of money to spend on a guy that hasn't show the quality that would significantly improve out team.
Ideal Jordan Ayew is what, 20 years old and plays for Marseille?
Only 7 goals last season, but played most of their matches, and then he's only 20! And has played champions league football.
To me that sounds like a player who is well worth £5M, I don't see any logic in dropping off at £4M.
I don't know much about this Zaha bloke, but isn't he something like 20 years old and an England Under 21 player? Doesn't sound like £5M is expensive for what you're getting, as compared to £4M.

Jordan Ayew is 5mill in euros so is even a better bye next year here be worth 7.5mill
Dick Habbin's hairdo It's simple:
1) Two weeks ago I was quite happy with the squad. Might have a bit of a relegation scare and mid table mediocrity and then I saw the Stoke and Chelsea games and thought: "All's right with the world - we've thrown away five points but the performances were good. We won't miss those points at the end of the season."
2) Then I've seen the signings - and performances - of others around us, noticeably Swansea and Micchu and Picchu or whatever their names are. 4 Million squid for them in total plus sensible wages....
3) Then I look at how we havecomparatively weakened over the past couple of weeks ... with a dodgy keeper to boot.
This is singularly the most important season to stay in the Prem. Next season the TV money is stratospheric and you have to be in it to, ummm, coin it. Game over for any club that isn't.

Dammit! I know we won't sign anyone but someone had to say this guys name again...
windermere_royal Looks to me like BM wants to stay loyal to the players that got us here if only for one season, frankly I think thats foolish reasoning with the huge amounts of money on offer next season..but hey what do I know?

How do you know that we are refusing to pay the extra? The stumbling block (if we're even in for them in the first place), could be anything. They might want all the money up front, they might want a huge sell on clause, or a sack load of cash if they reach a certain number of games.
I'm all for pushing the boundaries of the budget for the right player, but if we get bullied into paying more than we're prepared to every time we sign a player, we'll soon end up without any cash to spend at all.

For pity's sake, admit it. Until about a week ago you'd never heard of him. Now entirely based on paper talk and sundry gossip, he's worth five million and Reading shouldn't be quibbling over a million here or there. Can't you trust the organization to make its own considered judgment about what a player might be worth to it?
