Already getting annoyed with Burnley's parachute payments. The relegated teams are like playing Championship Manager.

Two possible signings could drop over the next few days... @Skybluebeliever @better days - any knowledge on these?

If Hamer was sold and the money reinvested in the squad it would put us on such a solid footing for years to come. I find the whole concept of not reinvesting absolutely crazy. Makes me wonder for the first time in ages again what Sisu's exit strategy is.

Shrewsbury apparently after Tom Bayliss

There was the Callum Wilson sell on fee the summer we were promoted. No real problem with having to sell a player as this has always been the case with us, but given the likely fees we could get for Hamer or Vik it beggars belief that Robins wouldn't get some of the funds.

Agree with this really. It's felt like we were building this summer. Doesn't really sound like that in truth based on sbb comments. Generally when we have invested in players they are the profitable ones. Feels like Robins is going to have his work out.

Why would that be @Skybluebeliever? Appreciate because of the number of contracts being extended before the end of the season we are probably in a good place with the lack of churn of players so there probably isn't a huge amount of free wages still. Would a Hamer sale not change this in your view?

Thought the same. Or Ben Davies, although think @Skybluebeliever said a young centre back... Davies probably isn't young in footballing terms.

Was this the loan from a top Premier League side you mentioned?

Not a target according to Andy Turner.

Jamie Paterson extended his contract with Swansea after throwing his toys out the pram last season.

@better days think you said we may be looking at another target with Chelsea links again. Anymore info on this?

Lost Iversen though who their fans raved about.

Set to be announced...

Three years ago he went for £3.5m. At 25 he still should have his best years ahead of him. Good signing in my view.

Eccles fit enough to start pre-season?

Remember you used to be quite well placed for a bit of transfer knowledge @Mr Panda. Anything you have heard or did you lose contact with your source?

Might be wrong but can only remember one Maatsen assist all season. Said many times last season he flattered to deceive.

Ryan Haynes signed for Northampton.

I'm actually of the belief the only real way the club progresses is to sell for big fees and reinvest wisely. But there aren't many decent strikers around at this our level. If we sold it would have to be for an overinflated price. Even if Robins got every penny £8m probably wouldn't go too far...
