    I think that’s right. Our new model is to pay a bit more for players, develop them and then sell some on at a decent profit. Celtic do the same but at a higher level, in terms of their budget. It’s about striking the correct balance between how many we sell and how many we retain. It’s the only way we can survive. So, I imagine that to coin a phrase, every player is for sale, but hopefully not all at once! It’s a better business model than we’ve had for decades and that’s down to DC I think.

    Aye- we make profit and invest in higher level of player makes us better
    Getting the balance right on when is the time to sell will be the difficult bit
