Get your tin hat on pronto as the holier than thou brigade will be chucking very large rocks at you shortly

I think the owners are a waste of space.
Genuinely worry about who they will sell too. They won't care as long as they regroup as much cash as possible for the 28
But they can't pocket the transfer money.
Parachute payments are also scrutinised, they cant pocket them either.
It's illegal.
They can only pocket dividends on profits. [Post edited 24 Jan 2019 20:20]

Can parachute payments be used for consultancy fees? |  | | |

Don’t need my tinhat, i’m sure many will agree.
No need to sell, we’re trying to build a youthful team for the coming seasons - Selling makes absolutely no sense - I could take the culls of last Summer - Most were sensible, this one however is not. | | | |

I have not posted for a while but this situation has drawn me to reply here...despite all of the negative PR from owners/board about bad medicine and the result of poor transfer windows we have done quite well considering but we know as fans we could have done a little but better without the drastic overhaul.
Now the real fact remains that after selling over £40 m in the summer and with the biggest level parachute payment we will never be in a better position to bounce back financially yet we are acting like paupers and yes most fans accept moving on high earners that don't contribute that much.
Every season we will get that bit poorer and by selling the young prospects with lesser players coming through we will level out with the rest of the lower half teams and be fighting to stay in this league....If we cant keep Dan in this position we never will under the current regime who wont spend to replace..we aren't even spending on the development teams anymore so where will the replacements come from?????? | | | |

If we sell Dan James for anything less than an absolute minimum of £10m, then we know how desperate the Yanks are.
I totally understand that they raised probably only about 40% of what they expected in incoming transfer revenue in the summer. I also think that they would have spent more if they had received more in transfer fees.
BUT (of course there was one), they had a choice of funding the backing of a pretty good manager or bleed the club dry by selling every decent player just to avoid having to cover any losses. They have, so far, gone for the latter and I think an offer of anything over £3m will see Dan gone.
Selling or loaning out the high-earners makes absolute perfect sense and we're all on board with that, but the U23s are our future and, in many ways, our safety net.
Sadly, I'm sure the "it was hard to keep a player who was in the last x months of his contract and was offered a very good deal elsewhere, closer to his home, that we couldn't match" statement has already been written. | |

Very true again Nick ....the asset stripping of OUR Club is breaking my heart but totally predictable yet totally avoidable if the Sellouts hadn’t cashed in to the highest bidder to the Hedge Fund Yanks...

The OP was talking about Dan James, not McBurnie. Like now in January, not last summer.
And, the narrative from scfc since the summer has mostly been about having hit the reset button and begun again with youth in mind.
I see the OP's point. If Dan is sold it sort of negates the reset soundbyte shite and could indicate that the club isn't being totally honest with its fanbase.
Not that I would believe that for one moment of course.... |  | | |

Some great points on the thread.
But if you feel that strongly about the club you claim to love, would you seriously walk away from it in protest of the sale a promising (no more than that) youngster??
Surely better to fight and protest from the inside than meekly walking away??
These owners are not here long haul. | | | |

One other factor though is what the player himself wants. If his head has been turned then most often it is a lose/lose situation if the player is not allowed to leave. If he were to leave to the likes of Leeds though, that would be worrying as DJ would obviously see them as a better prospect than us.
If however he went to a PL club then, well, although I think the move would be premature for him, you couldn't really blame him and that in itself would not fully reflect the share holder's desires and intentions, in my view. Hopefully he'll WANT to stay (and I think he should purely for his development alone). |  | | |
