The problem still is we are paying the loan players wages as the club who they have been loaned to will only pick up 25/30% of the players wage.mapperleywhite wrote:From Adam Pope on twitter - quite a list!

Re: 2018/19 Transfer Rumours and Squad Discussions
Depends on your perspective SL. We have a tighter squad of players who are all competing for a first team place, with no passengers, and from the sounds of it an all-round much more intelligent, technically flexible group of players, so I'd see these 22 departures (excluding Vieira obviously) as a fantastic bit of progress for the club.SCOTTISH LEEDS wrote:The problem still is we are paying the loan players wages as the club who they have been loaned to will only pick up 25/30% of the players wage.mapperleywhite wrote:From Adam Pope on twitter - quite a list!

Even from the financial perspective you seem worried about, clearing this lot (even the loanees) will have freed up a lot of capital. Of course some of the savings will be going on Bamford, Douglas etc's wages, which are probably higher than we've been used to, but I don't think the loanees we've brought in will be a major drain in comparison to having Murphy, Wiedwald, Sacko, De Bock, Anita and O'Kane on the books. I'd also think it's likely that it'll only be the youths for whom we're covering a lot of their wages - can't imagine we're paying 80% of Anita's salaries, for example.

Interesting to see Antonsson taking the piss for Molde and scoring for fun both in the league and in Europa

Steven Caulker available on a free. Could be worth a punt?

There was something about him that suggested that he could score goals. I had thought he deserved a crack but I'm afraid the physicality in the English leagues found him wanting. Nice guy I think but needed a bit of nastiness to succeed.new signing wrote:Interesting to see Antonsson taking the piss for Molde and scoring for fun both in the league and in Europa

Yes I saw this. He obviously has something lined up from what the Dundee manager was saying. Although I could see Celtic going for him and he's played under Rodgers.
