With the average wage north of 25k a week for an average championship player, I’m not sure we can replace the likes of Kelly, Allen, Shipley and Jones for the same money. We will need major investment to improve the squad. We’re an established Championship team and players coming will be expected to be paid as such. Even signing top league 1 players will expect 8-10k a week and will be unproven at this level. So it will be taking a punt on kids with promise and hope 1 or 2 of 5 or 6 we sign excel. If and when we sell one of the Crown Jewels we need 50% as a minimum of the transfer fee to be reinvested back into the team and not the old chestnut of “It’s covering losses”

I have my doubts many if any championship clubs will be dishing out new contracts north of £25k a week perhaps apart from the relegated ones armed with their parachute money. A lot of clubs are saddled with high earners they would love off their books. Will be interesting to know what those on new contracts get, I reckon £10k a week at most.

‘Player from mainland Europe already been shown around the Stadium’

Is that the Dutch defender someone mentioned before?

Korey Smith available in the summer, leaving Swansea, a versatile footballer can play numerous positions in midfield as well as wing back, reckon he's a realistic acquisition

Thought he was a good player for Norwich in their promotion season can’t really understand how he has seemingly failed at Bournemouth.
What’s his contract situation at Norwich ?

I’d snap him up in a heartbeat. I don’t care he’s going through a Deli Ali bad patch but fuck me that kid can play. Watched him against us a few years back and he ripped us limb from limb, nobody could get close to him

Norwich took the option of extending his contract a couple of weeks ago, I guess they would want a big fee for him.

I think he would certainly suit our style of play.

It’s not happened for him at Bournemouth and I believe Norwich want shot of him. Maybe a swap deal and cash if they wanted one of ours?

So a deal has been done then… not that we’d get any money for him unless we offer him new terms and then sell him which to be honest I wouldn’t want to accidentally be stuck with him like we were with Baka when we did that

He's out of contract so pretty sure he'll be going.

I think he could start tomorrow but with Sheaf injured and Hamer close to ban and not risk getting injured so can’t see him playing , not much choice after that

Depends if we’re selling Hamer. Let him get booked if we’re selling.

that being said - do the multiple yellow bans carry over?

Hamer should do a Kastaneer v Portsmouth. Go out with a bang.

Bournemouth have the option to buy him for £10m at the end of his loan. He's definitely not in reach.

With regards to Kelly I would move on now if I was the club.

I love the guy and he's a been a fantastic servant during our renaissance and it's great when the affection is mutual. I just think that isn't enough.

I think there is more bang for our buck out there and it is a position that we seemingly could lose a player without too much fuss - particularly one so injury prone.

We should also allow him to end his career playing football and then just look forward to seeing him at legends day. I think he's be perfect for Pompey who have a lot of talented players but nobody bringing them together.

Hamer as good as gone then if we’re resting him to avoid injury ahead of the summer.
