The club is supporting DF in every way it can and it’s up to DF to declare when he is back at work. To say that there is friction is just rubbish . Like any other manager DF Is stating his case and with tongue in cheek when he talked about 2 players for every position. No one understands more about budgets as he’s been part of the thinking to build from within via home grown tallent . Events that have happened are just that , events. The club have got targets and behind the scenes life goes on and things happen that we are not privy too . It’s only been a few days since that dreadful news of his father, so he will be talking to the club and keeping up to date with important issues. Contracts for players run until the end of June so not allot will be heard until nearer that time , so more patience required .

In my opinion it's not rubbish at all..You could clearly tell from his interviews that he was far from happy with how the budget was being dealt with..Thats friction as far as I'm concerned but that aside the point still remains..Has the budget officially been put in place so he knows what he has to work with or hasn't it...it's a simple question really.

We are well run club. Now stop moaning. :-)
Cantley agree with your sentiments but nothing will be achieved on here let’s wait and see what transpires before and maybe after preseason.Then will all know about the level of ambition.We can then ask the CEO if we believe it’s not what required as this supporters trust tells you to go and support another team if you are not happy

I think this thread has gone a bit away from the point.The actual financial aspects of the budget wasn't the point I was making,that is based on what the club can afford and that will never be enough for any manager and is what it is I was under the impression from his interviews that DF was more frustrated because he didn't know what it actually was at the time his dad fell ill and what he had to work with..Yes you have Wilcox who will know who we are after etc etc but has it actually been finalised and everyone aware of what it is so they can get on with the job of recruitment...
Every thread turns into the budget nowadays.

Genuine question; I've noticed that most players who are considered available are on contract until June 30th, and yet I'm sure we've signed players before that date in previous seasons. Is there some kind of pre-contract agreement that can be made before the player actually signs?
