“We had a situation this week where I was going for a player and the player was offered an astronomical amount of money," McDermott said. “One of the owners spoke to me about it and asked for my opinion. I said ‘let him sign for the other club.’ It was just ridiculous.
“We’re not going to be held to ransom by anybody. The deals have got to be right for us and this one wasn’t. It was astronomical. Good luck to him but it wasn’t going to happen here."

Just seen the full article Side,
Pretty good read, and just more positivity even in article about us missing out on a player.
Understand your logic with the suggested names and I tend to agree it must be someone who has just signed elsewhere?
No idea which one though

Could it just be propaganda?
Everyone knows we have access to very little money, but we were able to sign Luke Murphy for a million. There again we don't want other clubs - or players - to know how big our transfer pot is, or they'll inflate their demands. hence stories like this.
Are GBH that subtle? Maybe. Jury's out, but I like the idea.

Would love it to be propaganda, what Bmac is doing is he isnt making waves, he is doing things on the quiet, only speaking tactically.
