It's OK to disagree. It's what makes the forum.

My bad! Agree.

When you list what we have as our best it looks even more depressing We have lost Timmy Soyunco Mendy Ndidi Tielemans Maddison Barnes Ect ect and you think our squad is stronger now? Really? How?

It's probably overlooked for one reason only. The standard of J1 league football is rubbish. The chances of finding a gem in that league are remote to say the least. The 2 players you talk about are presumably Myoshi and Sakamento both of which were playing in Belgium. 95% of anyone half decent will already be playing in the European leagues somewhere so finding a needle in a haystack in Japan is next to impossible.

On contracts RIC, many of the old guards wages will have gone back up to pre relegation rates because of promotion as per their contracts. Relegation ment they took a drop but promotion puts them back on their old wage. Promotion will also have cost millions on bonuses built into contracts and add ons in transfers . So Wages could still be an issue For a while yet .

By the time we kick off our squad will be significantly weaker thsn the squad that took us down. Brentford Forest and Fulham Brighton ect that you talk about were better then ,so I struggle to see how we are better than those teans now who's squads are of similar abilities than the season in which we went down now and we was not good enough then ? How many actual premier league standard players do we currently still have who would be in the 25? Mads JJ Ricardo KDH Winks Mavididi You could make a case for one or two others but. The rest would struggle to get into any other Premier league teams starting 11. I highly doubt we will be bringing many of the same standard,in fact we could even lose one or two of those. The points deduction will play a massive part. If we get to a poor start we could be 10 ganes plus into the season before we even wipe out the negative deficit. It's vital we come out the traps and pick up points from the off. I think we neede to be realistic and get ready to potentially YoYo for a few years. Relegation was a disaster for the club is still being felt now and will be for a few years yet I feel. We really need to take of the blue-tinted glasses abd be prepared to be disappointed. It could get messy for a while yet.

We got ourselves in the shit. Can't really blame the media or the footballingworld. The media have been very pro Leicester since we won the league, as has the football world so not really sure where you think the big vendetta is?

Whoever we get gas to ha e good dress sence A Vee Stonecrop Would have an interesting look...

Basically the old boys are stuck in their ways and happy to plod on making little differenceto anything . Young blood wants to come in and change things. Old guys don't like that so offer a token gesture without giving up any control. Young blood reject it wanting a bigger say and presence. Is this it in a nut shell?

Is anyone else totally confused?

Interesting one appointed who publicly went for them here on foxestalk, Questioning transparency quite openly... let's see how that one goes.

Jason Banton who we signed from Liverpool 13 years ago is still without a club after leaving Glebe in April. Banton is now looking for his 28th club of his career. Must be some sort of record?

Probably?!

Sidney Tavares is out of contract at the end of next month. I wonder if this kid has any regrets after making his debut for us in the Premier League he's gone onto playing 30 odd games in the Portuguese B league and 5 in the MLS. Was tipped for big things but now scratching around for a club.

Jamie Vardy is dead? Oh shit. We really are screwed.

Does one sub appearance in the Masters 6 a side count ? If so put me down.

It depends very much on the agent, the money involved and the player’s standing in the game. With a loan with obligation to buy, it's likely that a wage has already been agreed, perhaps as a base , or in principle, at the time of the player signing the original loan deal. Morata as Juventus…real Madrid had their option to buy and did so, certainly against Juve's wishes and possibly even against Alvaro's wishes. The only way to get out of the agreed contract would be to find a financial agreement to compensate the other club essentially creating a new contract agreed by all parties. Yet if a club already had a player by contractual obligation the price to buy out that contract would be very large indeed and entirely up to that club. The player agrees to the original loan with option. And cannot just change his mind when that option is taken up. The obligation or option to buy offers the developing club the assurance that they will be compensated for training, playing and developing the club.

Yes sir. It would be the ultimate betrayal for Celtic fans if he did. Very interesting to see it though!

Read the story. One person said it and it was just an opinion he could do the job.

Tom Hopper Adam Smith and James Pearson.

I value your opinion

We wants to play not be a number 2.

Oh dear...

That was 2 years ago. He was regressing the season before . What's he gonna do in tbe dressing room? Hang the shirts?Paint the walls? It's a completely different squad he would have zero influence on them now. Plus he's still playing and wants to play games which he wouldn't do here. Makes no sense whatsoever. Kasper is the past. A club legend where he needs to stay. When he finally hangs up his gloves and if he chooses to go into coaching then maybe ,but who knows what he will do after or if he will even cut it as a coach.

Exactly. Past it. Same as Kasper. Your a little slow also it seems....
