Gerry Daly Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 I’d be amazed if he isn’t announced soon. Sure there will be other clubs that fancy him but unless it’s one of the big clubs in the championship chasing promotion I think he will come here. I’m not sure why one of those would think he would improve them. I would think there is already an agreement in place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwram1973 Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 He's better than league one standard imo. He'll get a better contract in the championship. Be amazing if he did sign though 🤞🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 He would be on less money if he signed here apparently than he was on at Brighton but realistically he hasn’t got a job come July Basically would a championship club be interested ? Would Warne want to sign him ? he would be a decent investment in my opinion jono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Exactly the sort of transfer business we need to be doing. Not quite cut it for a prem team but young enough to have potential to get back there eventually. angieram and SKRam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be amazing if he did sign though 🤞🤞 Other than championship clubs with parachute payments there are NO championship clubs with our level of revenue. He won’t get a better contract. As I said, the clubs with parachute payments either already have much better players than Hayden or can can aim higher than a free transfer. Don’t worry about Championship clubs. As I explained before, the issue of the gulf between Premiership and the championship in terms of revenue is not replicated between Championship and league 1. Even the parachute payment clubs are more often than not having to use those payments to support a wage bill that they had in the prem. they don’t have loads of money to throw around either.

Our L1 revenue will be about on par with Sunderland, and a few million behind Boro, Sheff Weds (if promoted) and Stoke (artificially high sponsorship) whiteroseram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League One clubs are all subject to a wage cap. Championship clubs are not. It's not as easy as you say, even without any further restrictions EFL may include this year, applying the Derby County rule. I would have Roberts back if we can, he got better after a shaky start.

Clubs are not subject to a wage cap in its pure sense that was withdrawn after the pfa challenged it. Clubs though are subject to salary cost management protocol which is... In League 1 clubs can spend a maximum of 60% of their turnover on wages...... Where we stand to that with EFL restrictions is not clear as yet.

Gerry Daly Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 We are not lumbered with debt like most, if not all championship clubs either. Anyway I'm confident we will get Roberts. I think its a done deal Ram-Alf and SKRam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Bielik and a few other high earners we will not be able to spend that much more next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reasonable chance we sign Roberts, and other players, we will be able to compete within our means and the agreed business plan, you’re making it sound as though we don’t have any money to use when all the noise from the club and the local press suggest we’ll be able to compete within reason.

Where we stand to that with EFL restrictions is not clear as yet. 60% of some revenue, 100% of other revenue, with owners being allowed to inject as much equity in as they want (included in the 100% bit). Promoted clubs still have to comply with Championship P&S rules, so even though we're in L1, we'll essentially be following Championship regulations.

We will need to replace all of them, and wont be able to do that any more cheaply than we were paying them. And pay Didzy more or even replace him. And what about Bird, Knight and co maybe we might need to replace them too. And get someone who can stick the ball in the net. Yes we can compete more hopefully next year but there is a long way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we can compete more hopefully next year but there is a long way to go. I must be feeling more optimistic about our recruitment prospects than others I suppose. My reasons for feeling optimistic are partly due to Warne speaking positively about the proposed changes he wants to make to the squad, at no point did he sound dismissive or pessimistic about the financial ability to add to the squad. Also the local press has reported along the lines that a revised business plan has been agreed with the EFL which includes the possibility of spending sensible fees. It also came out at supporters group meetings earlier in the season that we were under the agreed levels of last season’s business plan and that the club was performing better than forecast financially. Using all of that information, paired with the facilities we offer, the likely prospect of a promotion push (success of which is to be determined), playing in front of a big crowd at a good stadium, and our apparent ability to offer competitive wages at this level I’ll remain optimistic about our recruitment prospects. My prediction is we’ll miss out on some targets, will succeed with others and come the start of the season will have a more balanced squad in terms of depth and age ready for a push towards promotion.
