    Hope springs eternal.

    Although we don't have big money to spend on players I do like the kind of players who we've signed so far - players who will start when the season begins. The players leaving also make sense.
    Adding 25% of new players to our first 11 with what we have I'm quite encouraged for a good season.

    I'm really pleased he's finally gone and that he's off our payroll. For all that I wish him well, it wasn't his fault we offered an expensive contract.
    After all he's a pro looking after himself and family.

    Weird,weird football world, one of our highest paid aqusitions, started off as a loanee and was quite successful, signed up,played for 3 of our managers and never made it, had a period with Swansea same result, nice lad, never critical and as said looked after his family and very professional, I wish him all of the luck for the future but am relieved he has gone.

    Nice lad, but I never understood why we bought him, he has ability, but isn’t anywhere near consistent enough. I’m pleased he’s gone and wish him well for the future, hopefully now we can use his wages more wisely.

    £1.8m + % hopefully not responsible for Coventry taking 6 points off us!

    Wrong time in my opinion. Take a hit on his wages or go short if he’s sold. No one knows exactly when Semenyo is back. This could leave us short of experience if Wells goes.

    sometimes a striker has a swan song season and scores a lot of valuable goals ..not necessarily 20+ but crucial or critical.
    In championship and not knowing where going next and for how much ...! maybe get a good 7 or 8 games in and renegotiate on much less terms ... be fair, sign for PNE how much a week £5k? NW 32 now so say 3 years max realistically divide £1m per annum by 3 divide by 52 = about 5 - £6k pw

    Depends if we’ve got a replacement lined up, he’s never really fitted into our style, I can’t see that changing

    I think our financial situation will dictate whether he stays or goes. It's not a coincidence that 2 of our highest earners (allegedly, before I get hammered on this) are rumoured to be going (with one gone now). I do wonder if it will be the same story with Kalas.

    We would need a replacement for sure. Bell is not ready to step up and be the 4th striker at this level imo.
