Not if we use the loan market properly

under Gary Mac/Eric Black - we had nobody on more than a 12 month contract - and lots of loans etc

if we are losing 7 we need to bring the kids through and get 4 or 5 season long loans - Remember when birmingham waltzed our league with bendtner and larsson

problem is this year, is that we did not think about loans until too late

I'm sure we thought about loans - we tried to get drinkwater and shelvey but couldn't compete financially. Birmingham would have been paying a decent loan fee and % of their wages.

I think it's more of the case that we don't have the money, not that we don't want to use the loan system.

It was Bendtner and McSheffrey (... and Larsson)
http://soccernet.espn.go.com/team/squad/_/id/392/season/2006/league/all/birmingham?cc=5739

That season McShef scored 16 and made 19 goals.

So we are saying Brum didnt waltz the league with a couple of decent loans...... they loaned Bendtner bought Larsonn and McSheff. Plus were able to sign players from prem clubs suggesting they were paying a fair old whack in wages.

thing is, "up for sale" and "SOLD" are two different things...

Keogh up for sale will mean he will go

Bell / Baker / ROD up for sale, on 4-6k a week could mean that we are stuck with them if we like it or not.

There were three Arsenal loans Larsson, Bendtner and Muamba

I think the problem is the eleven we have on the pitch rather than the seven we sold.

Yep. Most loan deals include a loan fee on top of the % wages the loan club pays. That was what the big dispute between us and Bolton was re: Danny ward.
