Jack Colback is being left out of the 25 man squad on 09:01 - Aug 10 with 6223 views | Currie10 | Apparently on £50k plus there. For that, absolutely no way. Another example of the game gone mad. Clubs need to grow a pair, sure agents and players are going to demand X amount based on the Tv deals but clubs can also turn around and get some power back. Jesus christ it's a sorry state footy. | | | |
Jack Colback is being left out of the 25 man squad on 09:02 - Aug 10 with 6221 views | Heathlander | That seems a strange decision. He is a good player. Didn't he get an England call up? Would certainly add to our squad but out of our price range I reckon. Middlesbrough beckons. | | | |

Well said. However as TV companies are prepared to pay such ludicrous sums for the right to broadcast, the clubs will afford to pay . The gap between the "haves" and the "have nots" grows ever wider. And don't start me on parachute payments! | | | |

But the clubs are getting that much from TV deals. I'd far rather that money goes into the pockets of the players people actually pay to watch, than the owners of clubs | |

Would be an upgrade on what we have, but he would surely inhibit the development of the youngsters coming through, which wouldnt be the best thing in the long term. | |

But far too much of it goes to the agents. | | | |

But that comes out of what the players are paid; it's their choice. There is an argument that an agent will only really get you enough extra to pay their share but it's still easier than negotiating yourself. | |

Jack Colback is being left out of the 25 man squad on 09:19 - Aug 10 with 6058 views | chicoazul | Why would anyone want to loan in a centre midfielder when we have our own young players Downes, Nydam, and Bishop to come back? To say nothing of the senior pros signed at great cost in the summer. | |

That is not quite how it works. Agents continually tout their clients to clubs, and , also clubs will engage agents to look for players. Obviously the agents' cut is factored in, but basically it is in addition to what the players get. I can understand why players use agents to negotiate, as they do not feel confident to negotiate directly. However the role of agents needs to be looked at very closely , and boundaries set. Of course there have been famous examples of player's family members getting involved with somewhat disastrous results. Messi being the prime example. | | | |

Then he will have the complete set of the top NE clubs; Sunderland, Newcastle and Middlesbrough... his path is heading toward Hartlepoole or Darlington if he's not careful | |

At least it someone we know and have seen play, rather than these random players that people want us to sign because they have been spotted on a computer game. | | | |
Jack Colback is being left out of the 25 man squad on 09:35 - Aug 10 with 5948 views | tcblue | Adding on top of what everyone else has said, he's not an upgrade to Skuse IMO. I know it's the current trend to hate on him but he is amongst the best DMs in the league. If we're not doing well in terms of attacking flair, blaming him for it is as logical as blaming Bart for a poor corner | | | |

Lots of us would beg to differ with you on that, but I guess that the merits or otherwise of Skuse have been done to death on here. | | | |

Agree to disagree, much like Leadbitter a couple of seasons back. | | | |
