This is exactly what I didn’t want: a long drawn out saga that means we can’t build a squad until the last minute.

Yeah they’d hold the EFL to ransom like always. Probably ask for automatic first dibs on registration of all U17s or something ridiculous while they’re at it.

I wasn’t. I think the rumoured Vik deal is excellent. But he has performed over two seasons and at international level.

A man can dream. A sustainable football pyramid is there and it wouldn’t even cost the PL teams much, maybe just a bit more caution crafting relegation clauses.

Do you think we will?

£233m between all the parachute clubs in 20/21. That’s almost £10m each for every club is distributed fairly. Which would make the bottom 6/7 clubs (including us) financially viable and halve the losses of all bar the top 7/8 according to 21/22 records. Yes clubs like Bristol that didn’t go up...

He’s hardly proven either. Definite potential but £7m for me is crazy money for essentially a Prem U23

First team only @slowpoke !!

Parachute Payment idea: £250k/wk first team budget for each Championship side (academy products exempt) and parachute payments are made directly to players for any amount over £20k/wk. The first £20k comes out the wage budget. Only contracts signed before relegation counted.

In that case I wonder if there’s another RWB to come.

Wonder if Robins sees him as a RWB or a CB

Hope so. Just still got PTSD from last season. “Players aren’t back” “Other teams haven’t bought anyone” “Still abroad” “Season hasn’t started” “Window hasn’t closed” “There’s still January” First week of July is when things usually get kicking if they’re going to, so let’s see what this week...

Current defence V attack in training: Wilson Burroughs Fadz Bidwell Dasilva Kelly Eccles Godden Palmer Allen Howley Sheaf Hamer Moore Have I missed anyone?

I don’t get it. There’s no reason we need to wait to sign a player for a million or so, I can’t see us signing two or three £4/5m players. We must know where we’re likely to have targets and could get bids in. And Doug has said money is available for the right player before we sold Vik. Hope...

I think we should settle all SBT arguments gladiator style at half time.

And you’re already late. All the paid shill accounts are out on this claiming freedom of speech or something. Clearly getting out ahead of a story.

That pull quote is the most generic footballer interview shit ever 😂

If I was a manager all my signings would be vibe based. Bidwell is classic LB he can stay, Fadz at CB obvs. Need a floppy haired ball playing CB with him.

I want some random attacking midfielder/winger with some kind of crazy hair and a Latin/African background.

It’s got a value in and of itself. You could imagine a scenario where Sporting buy it out or drop it as part of a future deal between the clubs. Yes it’s a gamble, like buying stock in a player and the value isn’t realised until it’s sold. That doesn’t mean stocks don’t have value.
