Hard to know exactly where we stand financially wander, but it's not good, ALK have taken out some huge loans against the parachute payments, and the auditors expressed some concerns about our ability to continue functioning as a going concern in the latest Annual Statement. That some players will have to be sold is inevitable, Mr Pace has said as much, but where this will leave us, who knows ?Quote:

Add Brownhill to that list.Last of the SD players will go this summer-maybe JBG will stay another year but I doubt it.Quote:

Wouldn't no where to start with the out on loan Brits and the foreign flops.
I expect plenty of wheeling and dealing and some wanting out
Should get a decent fee for Berge. Odobert possibly and maybe one of Trafford and Muric. Can't see anyone wanting to pay a fee for the rest, until a loan season has been completed
Hopefully some of these young lads show some potential next season and with a few quality loan signings, we can hit the ground running
There are some many elements to the situation.
As the stated modus operandi is to develop players and sell at a profit, I can see a scenario where every player is for sale. Although VK has picked a more settled side towards the end of the season, no - one appears to be indispensable if the price is right.
There are the loanees returning. Will they be part of the future? Will they be wanted or sold on?
The wages bill - Cork, JRod, Taylor and JBG. Are they really needed?
The players themselves - who wants out, who doesn’t want to be at the club?
Money - does the club have the finances to bring in new players?
Does anyone really want another summer of “all change” with a dozen new faces to integrate etc?
Your guess is as good as mine?
VK never came to terms with EPL teams high press which I still fail to understand given he was an exponent of the highest class in defending against it when he was playing. I hope his managerial nous is all the better after this seasons debacle.
JBG and Corky gone,Taylor and JayRod in talks.Brownhill to stay by the look of things.Quote:
