Ash Phillips

I am not overly fussed on Phillips going, but 3 million seems too low.
Of course if it was written in the contract then our hands are tied.
Tightening up is one thing but we desperately need firepower.
2 out of 3 players signed were forward thinking players and both are injured.
Sam Gallagher won't play half the games with his patchy injury record.
That in itself tells you that we desperately need forwards.
Will this 3 million go towards one or be stuffed in the coffers?
I am starting to lean towards the latter.

Just heard from a pretty reputable source that JDT will be leaving us very soon sadly.
I don't blame him, and now I am starting to get the feeling this is pretty bad.
Once he goes things will likely start to fall apart pretty rapidly.
Lets face it, there was only so far this club was ever going to get with the debt, the owners, the fan base and this era of money ruling everything.
Blackburn is a smaller poorer town that Bury, and look where they are right now.
I have been saying this for years, the fact they are an above average Champ club in this day & age is actually a miracle in itself.
