I think the club are exploiting a loophole. So the players are still getting 100% just that the government are paying 80%

And promotion, could you imagine the figures if we were playing in league one last season

Whilst we’ve furloughed the players, aren’t we topping them up so they receive all the wages? maybe Sheff Weds don’t top them up?

Think so, I’m sure we’re bonus heavy to encourage performance. They restructured the bonus scheme a few years back

That didn’t do us to badly in League Two, didn’t we end up bringing a load of Pompey players in

Joe Cole was a pundit in the champions league final...

Agreed. Don’t think he’s been nearly as bad as made out. Don’t get me wrong he’s had his moments but generally I’ve found him adapting to the league.

I suppose it would benefit to have a left footer there. He’s probably also a better defender than Hyam (I’m a Hyam fan so I’d be happy with this)

It’s not necessary a replacement for McFadz. McFadzean showed last season he’s still got the legs for this league. The could opt for Baker, McFadz, Hyam

Doubt it will be Diedhou, but would be delighted with Walsh. Can’t say I know a lot about Baker

You know this or guessing?

I don’t necessarily think we look at what positions they play. If they have the necessary attributes in the data driven recruitment era, then we’ll approach them

That being said - they also signed Dale Jennings and he’s now at Prestatyn Town

Just to point out, his value wouldn’t double next year. If anything it’s likely to halve. He’ll only have 1 year left on his contract. we need to get him and Hamer on extensions before their values increase. Otherwise peak selling time would be now

We haven’t missed out on anyone. The embargo doesn’t forbid us signing anyone, we can make agreements then ratify them with the EFL once were out of it.

This. He’s definitely in consideration for me. Not many players could be our best striker and best centre back. if I recall, in 97 didn’t he score against Spurs then dropped back to centre half to make sure we hung on to stay up?

I think he means you can’t just release them. There needs to be takers and we need replacements ready to come in on their sale

See I was born in 88, I consider legends as those who are recognisable by all generations top 5 would be for me: Jimmy Hill- Transformed the club into the sky blues and took them from the bottom to the top. John Sillett - Was the manager of the only major cup we have won. Has to be in there...

Love Dion but would probably have Ogrizovic in there because he’s our leading all time appearances, maintay gk in the top flight and the FA Cup winning team

Not fussed about Collins turning us down, more heartened by the fact we matched Cardiff on wages
