completely different scenario to Vik. I.e Gus loves this club and the celeb status around cov and Warwickshire but same time looks at his age and knows he’ll easily get 20k + elsewhere. do I think the club will budge, probably depends on robins.

Does it really depend on Robins? I might be misinterpreting, but surely by bringing Robins into the fold with regards to negotiations that suggests DK/the club is trying to convince Hamer to compromise on his salary demands?

When was Gimoc last actually right about something? I remember him getting team selection right when it was a really weird team tbf so he must know something but seems to be contradicting himself a lot at the moment

Has anyone actually shown real interest in signing him?

Its definitely not sounding great, we need MR to step in and sort this out. King is starting to make waves and in could really backfire on him, most agree changes were needed. However if he is not listening to MR who knows the club inside out that is not a good foundation to build on the progress made. I will give King the benefit of doubt but the more i hear the more i see trouble a head

I'm very tempted not to give a penny more to Doug until he starts stumping up his money.

What’s happening at the top end of the club? That’s causing such distress at the moment?

There's hardly been any rumours about him really. I can see him running down his contract here and moving on next summer for free

Pretty confident there is interest from Leicester and Leeds, although I agree FLW is rubbish rexo

We need a few signings to calm things down, we were in a terrible position this time last season and it got worse. And from that look where we ended up, until i hear MR panic ill assume what i hear is half truth. Ill just be happy to see the players back at Ryton getting to work on the new season.

If DK is not prepared to budge on trying to keep one of the best midfielders in the league then how is MR supposed to be in the playoffs 3 out of 5 season I'm starting to think that King thinks it's easy as he took over at a good time.He has made more money last season and season ticket money than Sisu have for years but doesn't want to change anything within Sisu wage structure.

All fits with what Robins was saying about being on a limited budget, of the same order of magnitude as last season's. It can't come as a surprise to anyone

we’re getting 17 million for vik and had a play off run

King is certainly a SISU puppet, and has no money, new face to do things that SISU wouldnt be able to get away with on their behalf. I half expect him to pull of a mask and it be Tim Fisher underneath.

Gus loves this club and week in week out gives his all , if DK is playing hard ball and Gus walks I think DK will see a massive backlash from the SBA . Get your eggs and rotten veg out in the sun boys and girls they should be nice and ready for throwing at DK by the start of the season .

As I’ve said, sounds like wages couldn’t be agreed. I would imagine it’s in the same bracket as what gus wants which sounds plausible

I agree something is not adding up and King cant be this stupid to think the best way to progress is to now pull the rug from under MR. Change was needed but improving the squad is essential to keeping us competitive in a unforgiving league.

If he can turn down an extra £10jpw, he can stretch himself to save the club he loves a little bit more...

He can easily get 20k elsewhere. No question about that so the fact he’ll be happy with that shows how much he loves the club. unlike Vik who wants out so much his agent is playing every game possible.

It really doesn't. If he loved the club so much in sure he could make do with £18k.
