Who do you want (realistic names only) us to sign for next season then? 13:46 - Apr 22 with 10342 viewsThe_Romford_Blue

I hope and think (and actually I expect it happens) we get Flynn Downes back.

I’d also quite like us to go after Ward Prowse. Think both are realistic and we have definitely been interested in them both in recent windows.

Keeping Omari would feel like a big signing in itself.

Who do we want in the door?

Poll: Would you take a draw tonight if offered right now?

Would genuinely rather we gave Luongo another year.

Are you expecting Burger and Downes, Burger and Sheaf or Burger and Sidibé?


Burger, Sidibe and one other. Sidibe is being considered due to physical profile and the fact he can play CB too.

Sellons will likely reduce that a fair bit when you take Delap and Davis into account.


There was no mention of a sell-on clause when Davis joined. I doubt there is one, and he extended his contract to 2028 recently (I also doubt he'll move on).

With £24M banked from Delap, we're unlikely to need to generate much more, if any, to be within PSR. PSR also sees a cost of living increase next season (only worth about £1M, but everything helps) plus headroom from the last submission.

Agree with the general point I think we will be fine this summer without more than Delap 'needing' to go. But In accounting terms it won't be £24m banked from Delap, it'll be £15m:

Fee received - £30m
Fee paid less 1 year's amortisation - (£12m)
20% of profit - (£3m)

And Davis signing a new contract will have no bearing on the sell on (which there undoubtedly will be) agreed with Leeds.

I’d rather we sold Leif than Omari tbh.

For outgoings….

Delap - 30m
Leif - 15m
Muric - 3m (Robbery)
Harness - 500k

That would get us close to 50m incoming


Muric, £3m… what?!

We’ll be good again... one day

Including Delap, we need 3 sales this summer to stay in line with PSR.

Delap & Hutchinson will surely be two of those. I do hope we can keep Omari and use Taylor, Harness, Axel to keep us in line instead, but I'm not sure how big the sales/outgoings need to be


How do you know we need to make 3, I assume you've had that confirmed by the club then?

I'd always assume that any sales are dictated by the shortfall the club needs to make up so maybe 1 sale could do it. Given you said it's 3 I reckon 3 replica shirt sales ought to be good then.

How can you say definitively 'we need 3 sales this summer to stay in line with PSR' and then say 'I'm not sure how big the sales/outgoings need to be'?!?!?!

Publicly we have no idea how much of the £150M was accounted for this season, no idea how much is due this coming summer, no idea what our players are being paid and no idea how much our parachute payment would be if we stayed down.

We know Delap is gone but beyond that I'm not sure any fan can say with any certainty what 'we need' or what will happen.

Do we? Said with such certainty, you are obviously in the know. Could you explain the calculations please?

You're only talking about profit though. We get the £24M to reinvest.

Think of it this way - you buy £100 in shares, so you're out of pocket £100. The shares appreciate, and are worth £150 a year later. If you sell them, you get £150 back - £50 profit yes, but you still have the £150 back in your bank account to invest elsewhere. The accounting / amortisation is just that - accounting for PSR. You still have the full amount back for spending on other player acquisitions.

Where on Earth do you pluck that number from?

Without going into too much detail (it's been posted a few times already), we have circa £60M coming from parachute payments, and £24M back from Delap. Wages (before more acquisitions) will drop - relegation clauses, loanees on big salaries going back, some fringe players naturally moving.

We may sell another big ticket more recent recruit but we won't have to - it will be down to the size of the offer, and whether or not we want to sell and the player wants to move on.

I have quite close connections to someone who knows a board member - obviously won't say who - and it was a discussion that was had over the last couple of weeks.

As I say, I'm not sure exactly what the sale size would need to be, but I do know we'll need to raise some money over the summer

I probably misinterpreted your intent a bit (the mention of Omari was why).

We need to buy during the window, and will need to generate some income to achieve that and keep within PSR. Beyond Delap however, I see that coming from fringe players. I hope Axel stays, but if he goes we get nothing - he’s out of contract.

So where do we ‘top up’ the coffers? Walton, Harness, Ali, Mass, Broadhead all have potential to bring in the extra millions we need. Maybe Taylor and Harry too.

So, in those terms it will be more than three, just not necessarily the players with potential we’ve invested in over the past 12 months.

I'd also like to see the backroom staff added to. Or even some of them move on. Just freshen it up with new voices, new ideas. Someone overseas coming in could be useful.


So change for changes sake then? Sounds great.
