spyinthesky Posted 28 October, 2018 Share Posted 28 October, 2018 Harrison Reed - doing well at Blackburn apparently. Scored yesterday Josh Sims - Non playing sub for Reading yesterday Sam McQueen - " " " " Middlesboro " Jake Hesketh - Played 60 odd minutes for Burton Albion following his solo goal at Fratton Pk midweek Jake Flannigan - Doesnt seem to be playing for Burton. Presume more injuries, poor lad. Jordy Claisie - Seems to be doing OK with Feyenoord and scored a cracker recently. Guido Carillo - Not setting the world alight at Leganes ??? Boufal - Scored a decent goal for Ceta Vigo recently, otherwise not sure how he is doing in general terms. Of the above I can only see Harry Reed returning to us (if we go down). otherwise I reckon we have probably seen the last of the above mentioned players plus dear old Fraser Forster who has probably got a part time job painting ceilings to supplement his relatively low basic wage.

Thank you. Part of me would like to see us reassemble our loanees and have a go in the Championship. It would provide more of an incentive to support a team made up of a lot of our youth system.

We had no money then but maybe if we could have a financially controlled landing it might work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 28 October, 2018 Share Posted 28 October, 2018 We had no money then but maybe if we could have a financially controlled landing it might work. We will be in a much worse financial position financially if we go down with the players we have on the wage bill. A team full of youth team players was crap in ‘08 and it’d be crap if it happened again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A team full of youth team players was crap in ‘08 and it’d be crap if it happened again. On paper we should be in a comparatively better financial shape should we go down than when relegated under dear Rupert but this will depend on the whims of our Chinese owner. I would expect the big earners/better value players to leave and those remaining have to take a 50% or so wage cut. The problem is, based on current displays, I am not sure we would set the Championship alight with our current squad. Also I suggest that our current squad of 'youngsters' are far less able than those who turned out in 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not arguing that we would win the Championship just that there would be more if a reason to support the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
