    Reading a lot of Minteh refusing to join Lyon resulting in a probable points deduction next season. Is this bollocks youse reckon?

    why is it only Minteh we’re trying to get rid of? Why not Wilson, Miggy etc? Baffling

    Yes same. He wants to play in the PL.

    Wilson and Miggy are apparently being tapped up by Saudi. But the PL will probably be all over those deals. Probably delay them deliberately till after 30th June.

    Not true because there's a threshold...essentially if the club has entered into negotiations before the cut-off date that will be enough... there's around two weeks more time.

    Does it not. Ok well that’s that avenue ruined.

    So where are we getting this 25m from then?

    Would love it if we didn’t in fact have a FFP problem.

    The tabloids genuinely believe it. I think the fact we are trying to flog Minteh is a sign.

    I love the fact he rejected Lyon:

    I want to see him play for us.

    Possibly, it's hard to say. I don't doubt we're close to the wire and the tabloids certainly think we do.

    As for the problem, I think if we're close to the amount and are actively trying to fix the situation then what are we likely to get? 3 points, 6 points? It's bad but if you told me that keeping Minteh to play as our RW and using him instead of our current options would cost us 3 points then I'd prefer to keep him.

    Not saying we should be taking that risk but it's not like we're talking about immediate relegation or anything here.
