A loan move was unfortunately always more likely than a permanent one.
 

Just get him out the door and get Archie Collins in, it’s been such a logical move all summer.

Would Preston even be able to cover his wages 

This is my thoughts too, there is no way Preston can cover his loan fee for the season, to cover his amortisation, it would be the 2nd highest fee in their history for a one year loan, let alone cover his wage in full. My only hope is this is being leaked to hurry up other interested parties.

Wouldn't let him go if they're not paying all of his wage.

 

This would leave us with Choudhury as our only truly senior midfielder and he's not played there in about 8 years.

 

If we signed him last summer for £1m we'd all want him to stay. He's mostly being attacked because we drastically overspent on him and that's not his fault.

 

Yes he is an absolutely boring player but he works hard and plays a role that fits in this team perfectly. As much as I'm loathed to say it, he should be more than fine in this league.

I disagree. Always puts in a shift and is a very good link up man. You need to understand football.

I like smokin da reefer as much as the next man but this is making me want to quit.

 

Drugs have obviously affected this person beyond anything seen before.

you don't need to cover the amortisation with a loan fee, the book value matters when you sell not when you loan a player out

Thanks for the clarification Pete. Well done on the tier 1 status. Keep up the good work! :thumbup:

No worries Dave.

I like Skipp, in the EFL but I don't like the numbers associated with him, I.e. his price tag and his wage, so he'll have to go out on loan.

 

Positively, what it will do is give us the opportunity to balance the midfield better.

 

We currently have 3 number 6's: Skipp, Braybrooke and Hamza.

 

We have 1 number 8: Page.

 

If Skipp goes, we should replace him with a box-to-box number 8.

Depend what he on, if hes on 40k and they are will to pay 50% you could bring in replacement on good league 1 wages and still save money.

 

Or just play Braybrooke in he proper position and use Hamza as well.

I agree to a point but if we loan him out and PNE only pay £1m loan fee and even if they cover his wages which they won’t, we would show a £4m loss in season for him and wouldn’t be our player.

that's not how it works, the book value means nothing its simply a number on the balance sheet, it only matters if you SELL the player, so loaning him out gets us a loan fee, which is pure profit and saving on his wages to what ever extent PNE would be covering it.

 

He will lose book value regardless of what happens unless we find someone willing to pay the £15m or so needed to cover it, which I very much doubt will happen.

 

Also losing the value is a good thing as it lowers the fee you need to get to record an accounting profit

A couple of million loan fee, 100% of his wages covered or forget it. He'll be more than ok in L1. There's players ahead of him in the queue that needs shifting first

In what way would he be more than ok? This is a genuine question not being snarky. I think it will be more of the same, a back pass at all costs even if the defence has spent 20 passes just to get to him. 

 

A cone in the middle of the pitch would make the same amount of blocks and forward passes as Skipp. Marti’s Skippmare midfield should’ve been good enough yet they could barely tackle, pass or move forwards with the ball against championship cloggers. 

 

Another drain on the clubs resources a where an academy player would have given us the exact same result last season.

could be decent at this level.

 

Would we be better without him and saving on  a small percentage of his wages?

 

Or keep him and hope he is key to promotion?

 

I prefer get rid but no hope of anyone wanting him on a permanent:plancque:

if you can sell Hamza and keep Skipp around fine, but I don't think we'll need both

We aren’t going to find a better screening player to screen the back 2/3 when we lose possession high. It’s going to happen a lot with Martin. Need someone who runs as much as he does to replace him… not easy to find

He's just crap, amount of times you see him not picking up a man that he's actively looking at is wild

Hence why he's playing for League One Leicester City.

 

People judge him as a Premier League player because we paid a Premier League wedge for him while we were in that league.

 

We're not there now and he'll be fine at this level. There is no circumstance where we should be paying for another club to have him.
