I see we came second from bottom in the Championship. Even Beaton by Burton Albion! |  | | |  |

Good. Why spunk money away on essentially nothing? |  |

Indeed. I think there is merit in being as low down that table as possible. However it’s probably more a reflection of the level and scope of our transfer policy. | | | |

Had we just spent another £70K, we could have equaled Millwall's spending on Agents & be in their position in The Championship.
That's how it works right? [Post edited 4 Apr 2018 15:25]

I don't agree with agents but they are sadly needed in the game.
People may not like them, however clubs soon take the Michael minus them. |  | | |

If an agent is touting a player to clubs and he gets a successful trial or contact then the agent should def get a fee, the same thing that temp agency and supply teacher workers have when an applicant is successful. | |

Exactly.
I changed opinion on agents when I read Zlatan's book.
Ajax absolutely shafted him minus representation - he was one of the poorest paid players at the club.
Didn't make that mistake again. | | | |

I like the way many slam agents for earning a lot of money.
I've been a contingent recruiter in the city and most recently with veterans. It's the same job.
You have a great candidate and you want to place him.
People do fail to realise a lot of the spade work that agents/recruiters do behind the scenes. Family, schools, wives, houses, foreign banking ect ect ect.
I'm ambivalent about agent fees. Yes, some charge a lot for nowt, but that's the same in any industry and it's up to the club to figure that out.
Milne and Evans are savvy businessmen. I spoke to Milne about using veterans in the wider ME group. He said 'yes please, but we won't pay you a fee!'. I said thanks but no thanks. |  |

As in being lower in the table as presented on the BBC website. Should have been clear and put it in quotation marks. | | | |

And yet pretty much everybody agrees our recruitment has been very good. Interesting. | | | |

Our dear friends up the road spent £2.3 million. Didn't do them much good because they are not going up!! | | | |
