It’s going to be an interesting rebuild, as only then club know what they can / can’t spend. 

I think a lot will depend on the penalty for the PSR breach. A light one will probably have them saying '**** it' and flashing serious cash on picking up where we left off. A heavier breach will lead to bargain hunting and trying to either scrape survival or building a team on modest wages that can bounce straight back again without having to worry about future deductions or penalties.

He isn’t a bad player in reality. 
 

For a free transfer and if we paid him £60k a week on a 3 year contract. That’s around £9.3m. 

Plus a signing on fee, what we have to ensure is that we include relegation reduction wage clauses, so at least if we do get relegated it is much easier to be compliant with any financial rules. Personally if we do sign O’Hare I don’t think we should be offering anything more than £40k per week and then make sure his contract is heavily performance incentivised. I think that has to be our strategy over the next few years

It’s bad that I read this and thought but do they though?

100%... Don't like the fella personally but can see him doing a job for us. I think there might me more sturdy premiere league ships that might be in for him in the off season however so i doubt we'll be in the running ...

What people seem to be missing about free transfers is that, most of the time, the players are running down their contract so their agent is able to negotiate a higher wage for them at their new club.

 

We've been riddled with players that are on wages higher than their relative ability, that we can't shift when they flop.

 

I hope we don't replace them like for like, after just clearing half of them off the books.

[Ric Flair]

Under the Wasserman stable. Suspect Jonny Morris is going to be busy on KDH going and O'Hare coming in.

[Bluearmyfox28]

Wouldn’t mind this as a free signing. The No.8/10 role needs 2 more additions on top of extending Wilf and potentially replacing KDH. Means 3 central attacking midfielders would be needed if KDH leaves. 
 

O’Hare as a rotational player will do a job, also feel we lack players that are more natural in the attacking midfield role.

Have we got this wrapped up yet?

It's 1st of July so he's no longer contracted to them so doesn't mean he's decided where he is going other then not resigning for Cov.

[OadbyBlue]

On a free I wouldn’t be against it. We’re in dire need of creative midfield options and Cooper likes an attacking midfielder.

[KFS]

Hate to say it but this utter shitbag plus Cooper is the sort of ugly, horrible side we have needed for a few years now

He's going Leeds 

 

Slightly concerned that they seem to be doing well in the transfer market

Why? They won't be in the same league as us for the next 2 seasons, we'll be swapping places next summer

You may have missed it, but they’re not in the same division as us. Who cares who they sign!

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

He looks like Pete Burns, no thanks!

I wouldn't worry about a team in the division below.

I thought we all hate Leeds scum and next year there's every chance we'll be in the same league

If he's breathing, he's good enough.

To be honest compared to Danny Ward I'm not sure even the breathing bit is necessary
