  • Selling players

    If we are skint is there no way we could sell a few players peripheral to our plans? I realise people like Agyman and Vine are a negative asset - that is their contract would cost considerably more to buy out than they are actually worth - but might not Cook, Rowlands, Ephraim, German, Hulse, Orr etc command at least small fees? Even if it would only fund the purchase of one half-decent first teamer surely it would be worth it. I haven't heard them be put on the transfer list but you would hope we would be circulating such names around some Championship clubs.

    I agree, but not with Bradley Orr.
    I wouldn't put him in that bracket at all. I thought he did really well.

    Ephraim's a bit harsh too.


    Different opinions though, I guess.

      my brother and I argue about Braders - I also quite like him, my brother reckons he has the technical ability of a bag of cement. I simply included him because Warno clearly seems intent on signing a new right back and now we are committed to Peter Damage for another season I can't see Orr getting much of a look in.

      Similar really with Ephraim, though I freely admit I'm not a fan - if we have Routledge, Mackie, Smith, Buzacky and Van Moen who can all play in that position I'd rather use any money we can raise for him on buying a striker and a left back.

              Played all but a handful of his games for us at right back. We already have three other centre backs even if Shittu is released plus Hill can play at centre back too. Plus we are also rumoured to be in the market for at least one other centre back. All of which suggests that Damage is unlikely to be so extended covering the centre backs for injury that he is not able to fill in at right back for a couple of games a season should Naughton/ AN Other get injured. Personally would prefer to keep Orr rather than Ramage but given we have kept Ramage and can only have a squad of 25 I'd have thought Orr's future is in question.
