stewarty 1,877 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Davis hasn't been near his usual high standards, Perry could replace Goian, Alexander is a worthy goalkeeper. I'll be gutted to see them leave, but it makes sense. Assuming Davis and Shagger are on 25k p/w. And Goian is on 15k p/w that's 65k p/w saved on basic wages. Add to bonuses, insurance costs, NI contributions and general player expenses and that is a significant chunk of the £1m savings required. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ergatrude 0 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 As I said elsewhere, can we stop saying stuff like this! We need every player we have. We can't say 'meh, such and such isn't great or hasn't been in good form'. Losing even one player is a huge blow, even a less good player. No we can't, its happening whether we like it or not. Suck it up man & get yourself together. We need to stay positive & be objective. We are the people & this is our time to show it. No surrender. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,182 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I'd be surprised to see Davis or McGregor leave because they have a sell-on value which will be more than their contract cost. Short-term or otherwise. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you kept McGregor and Davis till the end of the season the transfer fees would far outweigh the prospective savings, it's voodoo economics to release them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on. Not that I don't care about the players themselves being out of a job but if this is the way we begin to climb up the hill then so be it. We have to be pragmatic here. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem being that we MIGHT not be able to sustain their wages until we sell them.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to save 1m per month NOW, not at the end of the season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
