PieFacE Posted June 7, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) If we could move these 3 on that would be good. Kinda surprised one of Hogan or Kodja isn't on that list. One of them has to go surely, even both of them? Edited June 7, 2018 by PieFacE 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogan being rubbish this year means he'll be a bargain too. I'd bet any reasonable offer will be accepted for anyone in our squad with the possible exception of Grealish, where some effort at grandstanding will be attempted. Let's hope they don't force him to strike etc. Edited June 7, 2018 by villakram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilS Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) It would be better to sell a few players for small fees than one player for a large fee. If I am correct, the running costs are more than our income, the running costs predominantly being player salaries. So landing one big fee only papers over the cracks temporarily, whereas removing the ongoing expense will benefit us long term. Therefore, with a few players like Terry, Snodgrass, Onomah, Johnstone, Gabby, Samba and Hutton already leaving a big chunk has surely already been saved. If only we could remove Richards and McCormack from the books we would surely have saved a small fortune already in wages. I can understand the attempt to sell Elmo, Whelan and Jedi as they are on big wages and are probably not physically up to a whole season. Jedi in particular has not played as much as you would hope for his salary in his two seasons here. Pick up a few seasoned but cheaper pro’s, negotiate some cheaper loans where the parent team heavily subsidise and hope our youngsters step up to fill some of the void, I only hope they are as good as we hope. Time to sink or swim for some of the youngsters. It may be unpopular, but maybe time to consider ground/stand sponsorship deals to raise extra revenue.

Which in an ideal world would happen, but the reality is nobody will be queuing up for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 that all makes sense. Bree's time to step up at right back and both Mile and Jedinak on too high a wage and aren't long term options anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakotaDakota Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) Well given that Johnny Evans has just gone to Leicester for £3.5 million if we could get more than 2 million for the 3 of them i would be surprised but even giving them away would get 4/5 million off the wage bill Edited June 8, 2018 by LakotaDakota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHV Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Odds of Jedinak and Whelan being sold are somewhere between slim and non 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I can see Jedinak going back to Aus, our even the middle east. Whelan no idea who'd take him given his wages. Definitely the right thing to transfer list them. Elmo as well, he's the wrong side of 30 and on a big wage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
