    Jones is going. Probs Slater too. Puerta'a instructing his agent. So...

    That's the championship scenario.

    What about league 1 ?

    For what it's worth the account that seemingly started the Canadian consortium rumour has now backtracked on it a bit.

    Are Jones and Slater going? Is that a fact? Source?

    People wetting themselves over our wage % even though it's probably still reasonably conservative in the Championship. It's unsustainable but guess what, so are 95% of clubs in the Championship!

    Usually it's being sustained by the owner investing his own money.

    The fear/suspicion is that this is commercial debt.

    That means it's out of the owners hands as soon as he can't service that debt.

    That almost certainly happens in L1.

    Agents haven't been shy of activity, and we aren't renewing if we can get 7 figures now.

    And it's a c*nts trick asking for a source.
    Either believe it or don't.

    Oh is it a ****s trick asking someone speaking as if something is fact to ask why they think it's fact?

    Maybe say "It LOOKS LIKE Slater and Jones will be off" if as you say it's only IF we can get 7 figures for them (hint: we won't).

    I don't think we're in a position to hold out for it. So you're probably right.

    Look I've been off here for a while for a reason. Basically to wait for other people to start talking before I chip in.
    I'm not in Sydney. I have an association with a couple of pro academies where I come across people with decent connections.

    Dissect everything you want. But since the international break it's been heartbreak.

    We're literally playing for the future of the club on sat as far as I can see.

    Not worth fretting over anything atm hope for the best Saturday and see where it goes from there, maybe talk up the players instead see if that gives them impetus.

    Not easy when you've been talking them up all season.

    And then someone internally mishandles it thinking we're already safe and pisses a lot of the squad off with 7 games to go and destabilises the rest.

    And no, I'm not on about any of the coaches.

    Oh I don’t usually see them being talked up, now and then after a good game but the rest of the time :emoticon-0149-no:.

    Yeh, well some of our 'supportive, non reactionary' fanbase - most of whom have said they've binned their passes now we're **** again after hounding out the best young coach we've been lucky to have need to take a look at themselves too.

    I was and it’s nowhere going to be anywhere near that bad.

    The world is different now there are plenty of wolves waiting to pounce when something is injured.

    Yeah, each wanting their pound of flesh.

    We're gong to be shredded by the wolves well before being saved by one.

    You're saying we'll be fine based on 1 game of football, and we aren't very good at them.

    Unfortunately.

    Why have Norwich decided on these players futures well before the end of the season?? No wonder they didn't make the play offs.

    No one has suggested Selles may have been asked which players he wants to keep and let go next season that may have happened.

    Cos they did it before the last day of the season not 7 games to go for starters.

    And they're not in a relegation battle.
