According to Rob Tanner

No transfer in or out are imminent

Nigel usually moves fast in the market as by this point last year we had Matty James, Ritchie De Laet and Jamie Vardy all signed

Maybe Moyes doesn't know how tight Ferguson and Pearson are <ok>

It could be that we are looking for more experienced players this time round, so it may take longer than getting those in with little championship experience, or it could be that we really do need to shift players first, so expect all our business to happen on deadline day after Beckford has been shifted <laugh>

Need to sell before you buy? :D

Put it this way Danns, Wellens, Beckford, St. Ledger and Gallagher are on around 20-30K a week each

None of them played any sort of role for us last season. St. Ledger had a little run in the side but nothing more

You cant afford to keep that sort of deadwood

I wouldn't say we 'need' to sell before we buy, but shifting the deadwood should be our priority.

This is where FFP could work against you and other clubs with big squads. Teams who would like to take your "deadwood" players might not be able to do so this season because of what it would cost them. Players at a lot of clubs who aren't in the first team picture could find themselves picking up their wages for doing absolutely nothing while their contracts run down and at the end of that might not even get a new club.
 
Our squad's pretty small, the problem is that we just have a fair few high earners who don't play. Second fewest players used last season, Barnsley had a much bigger squad than us!
