Will the money be there to spend or will the net income be pumped into running costs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 14047 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Beye will get snapped up by a Prem team aiming for Europe IMO. He's one of the players that are nailed on to be leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano 0 Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Beye will get snapped up by a Prem team aiming for Europe IMO. He's one of the players that are nailed on to be leaving. I dunno like...he seems to be a loyal character and i think he'd wanna help get us back up should we go down. Bassong would be chased by a few top clubs and it would be hard to keep him but i think we could hold on to him and should we not bounce back let him go. Cant see enrique staying tbh. I would play Guthrie ahead of Nolan every time but i think Big Al would opt for experience and battlers in CM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 14047 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) I dunno like...he seems to be a loyal character and i think he'd wanna help get us back up should we go down. I agree that he obviously likes the club and the area but it's more a case of Ashley selling him at the first sign of a decent offer and on a footballing level, would you really want to play in the Championship? I'd love to keep him, obviously but I can't see it happening. We have an outside chance of keeping Bassong since his disciplinary record might keep some teams at bay but I think he'll move on as well. It'll be a shame for both of them since they could have easily become real fan favourites had the club kept its head screwed on.

Makes little sense on the part of him or the club for him to hang around imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeit a valid point stiva i cant help but think the likes of Beye and Bassong are the types of players we will need to bounce back if it happens. And if Big Al stays on which i fully expect him too id think he would give a list of players to MA that in no certain terms should be sold. A decent amount of money to spend (Championship amount) and the assurance that certain players will not be sold are just two things i think will be massive in the decision for Big Al to stay on.

ewerk 31195 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Bassong, Beye, Enrique and all our foreign imports will be straight out the door. They've no reason to stay, I don't think anyone could blame them for jumping ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1892 0 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) Most of the squad will be off and replaced. I can only see Taylor, maybe Lovenkrands, Shola, Edgar, Carroll, Krul, Butt, Harper staying. A couple may not want to go, but we probablies won't be able to afford them, ie. Nolan. Just hope some of the reserves can make a step-up or we can wheel and deal.

JawD 99 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Any player who manages to shine in a relegated side is sure to be snapped up. I think Bassong and Beye come into that catagory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stevie Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Xisco will be gone no doubt about it. I really really want us to sign Marlon King if we go down, he'll get 35 goals in a decent championship side. Marlon King and Ross McCormack would be more potent than any current combination we have.
