Originally posted by Midlands Eagle My guess is that if he has chosen newly promoted Wolves over us then perhaps we weren't actually interested and it was just the media rehashing something from January Quite. Media & agent talk. As happens every window but people don't seem to learn that it's all click bait and the agents earning themselves extra coin.

I would like to know when FFP comes into force. West Ham and Fulham have spent heavily as well. Anyone know?

The newly promoted teams will be fine, they'll have loads to spend just to get to Prem average with all the new money they'll get. West Ham is a different story. The interesting thing about this window is that it will be a firm deadline for Prem teams to get players in (tomorrow). But then they'll have 3 weeks to loan out or sell surplus players. So they don't actually have to balance the books at the deadline, they can buy now, and then have 3 weeks to work about the best sales. It also means that tomorrow Palace can go for a last minute bid for someone from Europe, and the Euro team should be more inclined to say yes, since they'll still have 3 weeks to buy a replacement from elsewhere. (Unlike last year, when it seems like several last-minute bids were declined because they had no time to secure a replacement player). If this does indeed happen, expect the other top leagues to follow suite with the earlier deadline.

Originally posted by ThatPetrolRelation I wonder if Wolves will be playing a single player who helped them get promoted come Saturday. He'll be their 13th player in. Like Holloway and Parish, but with a lot more money If Ollie is to be believed Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).
