Not seen such Bravery!
Are these alleged 'must be highest earner' contracts holding us back in what we can offer a striker ?
If so, we either need to renegotiate them or sadly move the players who have these contracts on.

Who does this unilateralism play for? Will he sign for 30 a week? I hope hes quicker than Hemed.

He could be as fast as Baldock for all we know but there is still some debate about whether it is possible to sign him (or her) or not.
Depends if all parties can gather around the same table, and agree with Wags, Grand Mas, Chairmen, players, kids etc!!

I agree with all that except Southampton apparently have not got £75M burning a hole in their pocket. I believe that Liverpool were paying equal amounts over each of the next three seasons. Also Celtic had a big sell on clause on van Dijk so I think the final figure that Saints actually have from that transfer at the moment is "only" £17M.

Perhaps that's because we can't do deals unilaterally (same as everybody else)!
Would you like a bigger spade?
I'm sure I read that the highest earner contracts were stopped many years ago. Think it may have been a Secret Footballer (Dave Kitson) article in the Guardian.
I was agreeing with you at that point.
You first used the term 'Unilateral' in post 150, to make some petty point.
I will not discuss this any further as I am pissed off with it, as I am sure most reading the tripe are.

Gawd help us! I don't think we cannot agree contracts unilaterally, I know it as an absolute and irrefutable fact. Any contract we enter into to buy players has to be agreed by the other party or parties too - at which point it is not unilateral.
There was a good reason why I asked you if you knew the meaning of unilateral. You clearly didn't understand it!
I got it wrong - so what, your hounding is an absolute disgrace!
The whole postings were not about unilateralism, more the Board's transfer dealings or lack there of!

strong and stable with me, or...
I would too, and would have done for the last few years!
I never said we had the quality or numbers, I said that we are not alone in finding it difficult to find strikers, and our record is probably comparable to most, and we know this because we had 2 seasons at the top of the Championship. We NEED a striker, I'm in no way arguing for any fanciful case that we don't, I am just saying it always has been, and always will be the hardest position to fill, and we are really not alone in that regard. We seem to have a mental issue that its us, and we've been failing for 10 years, or we're alone in having issues in this department. We're really not.
I'll ask again.Do you realise there are 2 weeks left of the window?do you know for sure we won't buy someone we've been speaking to for a while?
Yes I realise that as does every football fan!
No, I don't know for sure, but I will be amazed if we pull an unknown top secret rabbit out of the hat on Deadline Day, leaving all the other PL strugglers looking up at us like Gods.
Ok.So you realise there are two weeks left and you are panicking because?
