There's no money.

Yes, we know but if we get somebody in late, then great. Not ideal.When did they put the opening fixtures back? We need players to be bedded in before the first game, not arriving six games in.
Plenty of reporters are now reporting there is no money. We can't even afford €8mill for Almeida.Of course there’s money……crickey, I wish we could get past this no money idea.
Hmmmm, no.Of course there’s money……crickey, I wish we could get past this no money idea.
I don't understand not selling at this point. If given the geopolitics or economic conditions that make it so that it is difficult to manage this club from China why not just sell up now and make all this money back on their initial investment? I don't want to spend the next 5 years doing this with Fosun if they are well and truly tapped out. They've done so much for us and we will be thankful but if this is the limit, then its time to start having these discussions much like when Morgan was done with the club and seemed to stop caring after relegation.I think Jeff's here to just keep things ticking over as no investment from Chinese owners in any clubs really in UK . So the handbrakes on and we are not going to move forward.
Reporters?…..gimme a break.Plenty of reporters are now reporting there is no money. We can't even afford €8mill for Almeida.
Lack of transfers is one thing, it's the silence from the club that's annoying me the most.
Zero communication with the fanbase other than a few kick around videos on Twitter.
What's happening with MoutinhoOut of interest, what do you want them to tell you?
I dont think there is money. All the signs are of reducing spending. On wages, the ground and transfers. Fosun have capitalised their loan and thats it for new funds. So, we can only spend what we earn. With high wages relative to turnover there isnt much leftOf course there’s money……crickey, I wish we could get past this no money idea.
There’s either no money or only money available for our top targets who either dont want to join us or we bid way below their market valueOf course there’s money……crickey, I wish we could get past this no money idea.
Shi had a chance to talk about on field ambition. His video did not mention any team plans or ambitions. Nit league consolidation or europe or trying to win a cup. Nothing. That tells you all you need to know. But the esports team is ok.What's happening with Moutinho
If we're backing the manager
If we're pursuing players
Plans for next 2-5 years
Stadium updates
If were not willing to spend (at least we can accept it then, regardless of it we agree with it)
I’ve now moved from panicked to scared.
What the hell are we doing?
Who has said we cannot afford €8m for Almeida .. nobody has .. I expected him to sign as advised but has not happened because of money but believe he may have been replacement for MoutsPlenty of reporters are now reporting there is no money. We can't even afford €8mill for Almeida.
Ok but look at the transfer windows……nearly every window we brought players in…..that’s a patternI dont think there is money. All the signs are of reducing spending. On wages, the ground and transfers. Fosun have capitalised their loan and thats it for new funds. So, we can only spend what we earn. With high wages relative to turnover there isnt much left
Well we don’t know that they don’t want to join us……nobody ever said.There’s either no money or only money available for our top targets who either dont want to join us or we bid way below their market value
Either way regardless of how many months are left we ain’t signing anyone worth getting excited over.
Out of interest, what do you want them to tell you?

I suspect that with no outgoings currently, there will be no or rather minimal incoming.7.30 am, just up, sipping first coffee and read through 4 pages posted since midnight.
One thing comes to mind……
Does anybody on here actually think Wolves are doing nothing to get players in ( not the under 19s)?
Anybody?
Looking at the players we have today. I do not see us being in a relegation battle unless we get a lot of injuries. Compared to much of the second half of last season we should have the following fully fit after pre-season; Neto, Kilman, Podence, Jonny, Adama, MGW plus Semedo before too long. Mosquera should also be available and no-one knows yet whether Mouts has re-signed. This represents a big improvement over the starting eleven for much of the second half of last season when our form was so dire.Im still optimistic we will do business,but if nothing happens next week ill be moving into the "concerned" camp for sure
We need 2/3 quality players as we stand,whether we will spend £50 million on one is questionable at best
We dont look like moving Neves this window,Traore still a possible,we dont know about MGW if he stays or goes,Mouts is up in the air,we have already weakened the squad and possibly will be weaker still
Like most of us i guess, im concerned we will be battling for survival next season unless we get new players in soon
Lets hope things dont get worse before they get better and we start recruiting pdq
You didn't see the Coady 300 display then?Same here...One pack my ****.
I mean a couple of seasons ago,pumpking was rallying round for helpers to put the displays up in the stands.That day last long.Absolutely **** all from them since,
Silence is golden.
But my eyes still see.

Talking is cheap
People follow like sheep.
Even though there is nowhere to go.
How many times did we fall for his line.
Should I tell him or should I keep cool.
Sorry mate, but are you saying we passed on Almeida because Moutinho is staying?Who has said we cannot afford €8m for Almeida .. nobody has .. I expected him to sign as advised but has not happened because of money but believe he may have been replacement for Mouts
There is money available for right players . It is finding them that improve the team and they want to come
If that's the case then I feel sorry for our Joao's knees next season.Sorry mate, but are you saying we passed on Almeida because Moutinho is staying?
Depends if Bruno instils and attacking mindset. And, if he does, whether we can score goals.Looking at the players we have today. I do not see us being in a relegation battle unless we get a lot of injuries.

Yes I call that a display...so would the other volunteers that helped.Well if ya can call that a DISPLAY then yes I did.

Love this, however, I don’t get any sense of doom and gloom from it.Looking at the players we have today. I do not see us being in a relegation battle unless we get a lot of injuries.

I have been generally supportive of Fosun but do feel the time has come for a new owner who regards Wolves more as a vanity project a la Abramovich, Newcastle or Citeh's sheiks etc. Fosun is an investment company so under its stewardship the funds required for us to become Champions League regulars are unlikely to be forthcoming due to the risk/reward assessment. Given the Chinese government's revised stance on international football investment and Fosun's prospects of making a good return if they sold us, I am hopeful that Fosun is looking for a new buyer and that a decent one will appear before too long.I‘m still interested in what gives you the impression that any new owner will be anything markedly better than what we have now...
Not sure whats happening 6 weeks ago was told in talks for Almeida .. 3 weeks ago was advised he was furthest forward in any deals .. since then gone quite .. the agent who told me has said gone very quiet cannot find anything out .. one of his players is friends with Almeida and has not said anymoreSorry mate, but are you saying we passed on Almeida because Moutinho is staying?
Jam tomorrow, jam yesterday, but never jam today.There is money available for right players.
Didn’t he struggle to get a game for Grasshoppers?jordao is clearly going to be used also. I can't envisage major signings but there will be a couple for the right player yo come in. Buy likely we aren't losing anyone right now
Of course there’s money……crickey, I wish we could get past this no money idea.
Scott and Jeff have literally said it's sell to buy. So we have no money until we sell. What's difficult to understand about that?Reporters?…..gimme a break.
I‘d rather believe Bruno and Jeff, ( who actually know what the situation is at Wolves), who have said money is available.
no he was injured he was flying at familicaoDidn’t he struggle to get a game for Grasshoppers?
Would it not be that the Almeida deal is paused until we figure out if Nunes is going to sign? Maybe one out of the 2 but not both?Not sure whats happening 6 weeks ago was told in talks for Almeida .. 3 weeks ago was advised he was furthest forward in any deals .. since then gone quite .. the agent who told me has said gone very quiet cannot find anything out .. one of his players is friends with Almeida and has not said anymore
I am just guessing he was the replacement if Mouts left ..
Thanks. I hope then that we might see Mouts signed up next week. But I am still concerned about our lack of activity.Not sure whats happening 6 weeks ago was told in talks for Almeida .. 3 weeks ago was advised he was furthest forward in any deals .. since then gone quite .. the agent who told me has said gone very quiet cannot find anything out .. one of his players is friends with Almeida and has not said anymore
