Ed do you know if the rumours regarding Jordan Rhodes have any truth to them?
{Ed025's Note - not as far as i am aware joe..
I hope not. I know we got jags, Cahill etc wtc from the Championship but I think we need someone better than Jordan Rhodes to push us into the top 4 it's no coincidence that nobody has come in for him after 2 years playing in the championship. No whete near good enough for us. Imo
I disagree Paddo, I think he's definitely worth a crack. Probably not as a main striker but would be a great option to have can't argue with his goal scoring record.

I think his price tag for an unknown prem player probably puts most people off Syd, they paid 8 million for him so would probably want at least 10
I think he could do a job for us.you don't score the amount of goals like he has without knowing were the net is.he seems like a poacher to me.he is well worth signing.
Jermaime Bekford scored for fun at a lesser level. I'm not saying he couldn't do a job Sydney, just not the type of player for a side trying to break the top 4. Maybe for one of the newely promoted teams he would do ok but not a top 4 teams striker, imo anyway and especially as someone said at around the 10 million mark
I see your point fellas but in today's market 10 mil is the price you are forced to pay for a proven goal scorer at any level and as far as Beckford goes he didn't have as good a record as Rhodes but even in the season we had him he did perform when he was called upon. I also remember him scoring a pretty special goal against Chelsea. I'm not saying Rhodes will be fantastic but he is a gamble worth taking IMO.
Think we'll have to agree to disagree on this one matey :)
Each to their own mate :)

Ed, I know it doesn't make sense for any club to publish how much they have to spend but any idea on budget for this summer as reports range from just 10mill to 30ish. With what RM did last season and with Europe looming, I'd be hoping at least 30 was available, esp with the type of players we need (2 cf's at least), not usually coming cheap.
{Ed025's Note - im expecting 30m plus CP..
