    Everybody else (apart from youth players like Harris, Magri, ect) to go <ok> Should bring in a relatively decent transfer fee and a huge amount of wages off the books.

    OUT:

    Henderson
    Halford
    Mokoena - Still on PL wages
    Ward
    Pearce
    Rocha
    Ben Haim - £36k p/w
    Lawrence - £20k p/w
    Mullins - £15k p/w
    Varney
    Huseklepp
    Kanu - £10k p/w
    Kitson - £20k p/w
    Benjani - £20k p/w

    I am excited to see how Appleton replaces the current squad with HIS own squad of not so highly paid fighters.

    Good post Jake. I am eager to see who Appy brings in. I would absolutely love Huseklepp to stay though !! My favourite Pompey player last season ..

    Is there a source/link for this information ??

    Unfortunately not :( Just random speculation <laugh> Appy has said he reckons out of the current squad, 3 or 4 will stay, and these are the guys who have made the most noise about wanting to still be here next season <ok>

    5 will be loanees. It's just so obvious, the rest will be players that will hopefully want to play football <ok>

    And not care about their wages!

    Is Benjani really on 20k a week?

    I find that very hard to believe - he was on a pay as you play at Blackburn. I know Lampitt was rather profligate with CSIs money, but truthfully Cotterill wasn't, he had a small budget and did a lot with it from all accounts.

    The words Kitson and Lawrence automatically spring to mind (and that was even without CSI's money)... Sorry buddy, but I think your point is void ;)

    Don't think so Jake - that was an Admin Andy/David Lampitt deal to get money for Marc Wilson.

    To be fair, even if Benjani wasn't on 20k, there's plenty of other things that image could be used for. For example:

    "After having just avoided relegation and in the midst of financial difficulties you signed a player on £36k a week on a four year contract without an automatic salary reduction in the event of relegation?"

    Ashdown, Norris, Etuhu and Futacs will still all be on too much for them to stay.
