To dispell the rumours, club sources at #drfc tell me that "categorically the budget has not been cut, it's gone up a bit." However, it seems that Darren Ferguson felt it hadn't gone up enough to create a team capable of a top 6 push.
And if we already had one of the highest budgets....

Where’s your proof that it was a mid table budget There's no proof in it being a mid table budget, However there is plenty of evidence suggesting it is not a good budgetCertainly not good enough for promotion
Out of interest, why would people think we deserve one of the highest budgets in League One? Shouldn't we be content with a "mid-table" budget, seeing as we finished as a mid-table team last season? Discuss...

Spunking it on shite like Kongolo and extending Evina's deal in past seasons will not have gone down well.
“A bit” maybe 2% same as inflation prediction. Anything between 60 to 80 thousand.

I think it's clear enough our budget is enough to compete and after that it's not about the money, it's about the management and performances. Look at Shrewsbury and Accrington this season. Likewise look at Bury. Yes a playing budget makes a difference but this is a game played out on grass not on balance sheets. It only takes anyone so far.
Fergie thinks he's guardiola and can have what ever he wants.
