    I am not sure if the club will sell players in the January window but frightening to think Shads, that the club has got very little assets to sell now. Williams £300k plus savings on his wages. Kane £300k plus savings on his wages. Cole £500k plus savings on his wages. Styles £400k plus savings on his wages. Connell in my opinion will be here to the close season at least.

    I agree with you & thats why I do not envisage a mass culling , cannot see any savings on wages unless we sell more than we bring in as all the new players will soak up the wages saved, but it is not so much our club that determines our january , you can only sell if there are buyers & january does not attract the amount of sales as the other windows do & I am not sure that clubs who might be interested in our players will be awash with cash , I also cling to the hope that our new director of football might influence the suits with a view to making a push for promotion which would be far more financially beneficial than the few bob they might get by selling on the cheap , we will see .
