Have we even spent £35m in total transfers across our existence?

Struggling to like football when things like this happen.

I guess they are pretty much promoted anyway, but even newly promoted clubs paying c.£40m for a player is nauseating.

Why ‘normal’ clubs will never have a hope of competing.

I wonder who the agent of the player is.... 🙄

Ridiculous but guess it doesn't matter.

They are promoted and they already look like they can compete in the Prem.

It's gotten so ridiculous that if a Prem club buy a player for £10M, I just assume they're not going to be particularly good.

Can't wait to see how many nails the upcoming TV deal puts in football's coffin, it's getting beyond absurd now.

Do we really strive to be part of this circus?

Football isn't what it was. It's essentially no longer the sport we all love and adore, but it's become almost a parody of itself.

Regardless of your view on Evans, we are about 5-10 years away at best from either joining in with this nonsense and paying £10m for players ourselves and running up ridiculous debt or settling for a place in League One or League Two.

Only a matter of time before these foreign investors stop trying to take a Championship club up, but instead buy Conference and League Two clubs for nothing and then start buying Championship and Premier League players so as to turn a £1m investment into a £100m one instead of a £25m one into a £100m one.

Eventually the clubs that play along with this farce will take up the top few divisions and all the others that refuse to will be left behind. The FA won't stand up to the Premier League for the good of the game and integrity and tradition. The Premier League is simply about making money and the more TV money they throw at the clubs, the 'better' players they can attract from around the world, the more they can conquer China, India, Russia or whatever other markets remain untapped.

The snake is eating its own tail and before long we will probably be forever destined to be behind these clubs. Terrible sad that it's been allowed to go this way.

This, on a day when we read that Ted Phillips weighed up whether he could join Town and leave off being a gardener at a princely £8 per week.

You boys need to get with the times.

I’ve just had a bid of £4000 refused for a Transit on eBay.
I’m preparing a fresh bid and believe I will see that Transit in my yard by the end of January.

I guess you just have to be prepared to pay the money.

Guys in Birmingham and Reading are also "running the rule" over that Transit. You may find yourself priced out at the death.

I wouldn’t disagree but I sometimes wonder if it might work the other way with giants dying under the weight of their greed and smaller clubs being the ones left standing? I like to imagine that!

Sounds like they've had a second bid of 37 M rejected so they are really going for it. QPR have got away with it for years, Wolves have now decided "let's follow their lead"
