    Yes they may take that view but it will only be via the Play-Offs.That can be anyone's to win and IF they do go up Barlaser and Ogbene are not Premier League players.Why isn't there interest or speculation for Rathbone now....our stand out performer? Because he has got 18 months to go.Have these 'big' clubs got as much to spend as you think?

    Clubs don't pay cash up front these days.
    They pay on the knocker / hp / installments over a period of time. Have done for quite some time.
    Same with compo for sacked managers.
    Some clubs keep them on the payroll and continue to pay them until they find another club
    Not everything in football is as straightforward as it seems.

    Rathbone with only 18 months to go? What are/have the club doing about retaining his services? Or do we let him run down his contract like all the rest? This lad is an outstanding plsyer
