Gaffney left on a free and Muzzy signed on a free? Lambert has to be the last, possibly it was Roberts and Hales before him? Club reported that Gaffney was sold for an unreported fee - we bought Muzzy from Lincoln. I stand corrected, although impossible to know if either went for more than they were bought so unless somebody has inside info we'll never know the answer.

From the website: Clubs in the League 1 and League 2 operate within a Spending Constraint framework termed Salary Cost Management Protocol (SMCP). SCMP limits spending on player wages to a percentage of club Turnover. In League 1 clubs can spend a maximum of 60% of their turnover on wages - in League 2, the limit is 55%. There are no restrictions (in themselves) on the amount a club can lose or spend on transfer fees. www.financialfairplay.co.uk/scmp.phpThat is all about wages. I believe there is no restriction on spending money to buy a player - transfer fee. Just a restriction on the wages to make sure we don't go over the 60% of the clubs turnover.
Im using stupid figures now as it's just easier to do the calculations... If the clubs turnover was £10 million then they can spend up to £6 million on wages (60%). There is no restriction to buy the player from another club. Transfer fee's doesn't impact the wage budget - the SCMP.
The last line of the paragraph I quoted does confirm your understanding.

There's no such thing as a free signing. Players want sign on fees, moving fees, and then their agent wants a fee. Then we pay the doctor for the medical, and the player and his agents travel and maybe hotel and on and on. U 23's and reserves in the Prem earn a lot more than our first team players

Matty Longstaff for example was on £850 a week until recently, even when he was scoring against Man Utd in the Prem.

I guess it's all relative as if he was at Rovers he'd probably be earning half that wage at his age? I just hope BG appreciates we need a mix of youth and experience, Craig playing alongside Kilgore and Mayonnaise last season being a perfect example of how to make it was work. If we tried a defence of Hare, Kilgore, Mayo and Kelly we'd probably now be looking at watching L2 football next season even though individually they could all play L1 football.

LOTS of potential. Just need to keep him fit and clear of injuries. Been so unlucky. Got sooo much ability.

Definitely worth a trial. Unbelievable amount of talent and so highly rated a few years ago. He was actually progressing quite nicely at Cov before injuries struck again...was one of the top scorers last season in the development league they play in. A few examples of his ability on the following link: gaschat.co.uk/post/342812This lad can have my ACL if signs for the Gas
