Fire sale? Yes, it's likely (almost certain) that the likes of Maguire, Robertson, Tom, Clucas, Jak etc will move on as better offers for them come in. But that's not a fire sale. I despise what the Allams have done to our club, but I see no sign of a fire sale and don't expect to see any sign of one. Or have I missed a wind-up / woosh?
Agree with the above although i have mixed feeling, sorry to lose the likes of Clucas etc(if they go) but the way we caved in at the end of last season was frightening maybe a new broom can sweeps clean, they say that's it hard to get the losing mentality out of the system and its something we need to turn around quick .
Yep, I said weeks ago that - if given even just what we bring in from sales - this is the best opportunity to build a new squad in years. We just have to get it right.
So, you lose 50%, or possibly more, of your first choice players and that's NOT a fire sale? What is it? Or is this a double whoosh?
Must admit I thought you were joking. Didn't you say 'something else to waste a few hours talking about' or suchlike?
It's like everyone has forgotten how it was 12 months ago. Every third day was a new name which led to pages of who he would sign and how we would play. There was Martinez, Zola, Coleman, Bradley among others in the end we got Phelan. Lets wait till someone signs the dotted line. My money is on Windass
If it's done then the good thing is that it's done early, do you think he is the best man for the job?
