No because I don't think we'll want to sell off our entire squad. Don't you think any of those players will be wanted by any top flight clubs?
I hope we do a Newcastle, tell them all to stay and get us promoted again. Seemed to work for them and they pissed the Championship.
Do you think we'd piss it with this squad? Maybe we'd go up on the last day of the season. If promotion was certain then keeping all the players would certainly be the best strategy.
That would be nice if we did that, but Newcastle are a rare case. In my opinion they where always going to come straight back. More teams don't come back. Can't see Jelevic, Diame and Huddlestone for example staying and getting us back.
Assuming we get that Robin Olsen bloke we've been talking to, then the following team would walk it: -----------------------------Olsen----------- Rosenior------Chester -----Dawson------ Robertson Elmo----------Livermore-----Huddlestone-----Brady -------------------Hernandez----N'Doye---- Fending off interest in our best talents would be the hardest bit, but if we somehow managed to keep them all, I don't think there'd be many better Championship sides than that. I left out Jelavic and Diame as I think they'd get snapped up pretty sharpish. If they didn't, then I'd worry for the defences in that league if they had to come up against them.
That's the players sorted out. What about the 50% relegation clause pay cut for the manager and his support staff? Is there one? I can't imagine him working in an inferior league on reduced terms.
Elmos' dad was with him at the Hallmark Hotel in Ferriby earlier this week trying to persuade him to move to London. They were having an open discussion in the lounge. He was saying he was very happy here.
We all have to agree the club has done well in negotiating these deals. It wont of being easy getting the players to sign them
You should have told him that a new hotel is being built at Humberside so direct flights from Cairo must be in the pipeline.
I see that "Most of the players" will have a 40-50% pay cut according to:http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/32446860 So who is not?
