I’m paid up.

Do us the honours please Jayt.

Ben Watson out of contract so if a club wants him like West Ham as a replacement for Scott Parker we’re struggling. I don’t think Pederson would come & out of interest where would he play ?[/quote]

Are you sure Ben Watson is out of contract dont seem like he’s been here 18 months[/quote]

It looks like this list is compiled of players who are currently on a loan contract as well, hence why Ben Watson is on the list. He obviously returned to Wigan before the end of the season but my guess is the forget to take him off the list. I reckon he has at least another year left yet.

Sephton, I would play Pedersen out left with Rodallega in his rightful position through the middle. Or even in support role like he played against us at Ewood Park where he won MOM and scored a screamer. But like i have accepted, these signings are probably too ambitious.

Would definately have a stab at Petrov and Pedersen.
We have the added bonus of the above players not having to relocate as well.

Call me crazy but why doesnt the Premier League enforce a maximum salary cap of £25,000 (for instance) per week, per player.
Then if clubs, who are self sustainable (on an honest income), and not dependable on wealthy owners, then the figure should be revised.
Obviously that would isolate the so called lesser teams from the ‘big four’ or maybe even a few more as it has now become but you wouldn’t have clubs going to the wall like most seem to be doing.
It would also make the transfer market a bit more competitive, as clubs now regularly beat other clubs to players merely on the fact that they pay ridiculous wages, when they cant afford to do so, in an attempt to get success early.
Yes, i know we suffer but tell me how this would actually change for us. I cant see us paying too many of our current crop above that £25,000 (i may be wrong, i dont know) and we dont blow millions on transfer fee’s. We merely cut to our cloth because we are on a low income budget. Whatever your opinions are of Whelan, he has had this spot on all along. Yes, we may have got lucky on a couple of occasions by staying in the league but its due to his business sense mixed with good fortune (and some bloody good bargains).
But surely, if the league does adopt a similar appraoch i can only see the division becoming more competitive, which is what all the proper fans really want.
Its not a massive overhaul but more transparency from clubs regarding their financial situations. We would never beat a club like, Man City, Man Utd, Chelsea to a player but on the flip side of it, we would stand a bloody good chance competing with others in the division that are enforced with the salary cap, much like ourselves.

HAHA

You forgot to add on the end of your post

….”by the way i’m only posting this so i can get everyone to respond with either ‘well said’ or ‘here here’ or ‘spot on mi owd mucker’.”

By using the phrase “bunch of tools” then i can only presume that you include me in that particular “bunch”.

At what point in my post did ask for Martinez to go?

And in answer to your question, yes i bl00dy well am disappointed about the result tonight. Did i expect us to win the FA Cup? No. Did i even expect us to get past Fulham in the next round? No.

But to lose a cup game at home to a team three divisions below, when putting out more-or-less your full strength side is awful.

Translate that one. Thats where i’m reading its a disagreement between the two clubs.
