36 days to the first day of the season

[SOUTHEND50]

So allowing for the embargo to be lifted say 8th july , 28 days to bring in 10 players, assembled from trialists youth players etc.

bearing in mind that the trialists will also be looking for other clubs, that means we have to have final idea of the starting 11, probably 1 week before ie 31st July. SO do the sums at that means 23 days to assemble a team. Its just not possible

RM you claim that the money saved from macca/ab will release funds to bring in players, I would have thought that any money released from the salary savings will just pay off more of the debts that you owe. Unless you can talk sainsbury in releasing more of the cash that you have squandered away to pay your debts , we are royally f...ked. I mean come on the team v stockport could be hammered 5 or 6 nil, and so on and so on.

If you cared about this town and its footballing heritage you go now, there cannot be any fairytale at the end of this , unless you swallow your arrogance.greed and pride and let the consortium come in now, this week

i would think the money now saved on macca and ab would possibly be be able to bring in something like 5 or 6 players in because their wages were so high. i just desperately hope it happens.

 

[pickledseal]

It's key to remember their wages were high, but we weren't always paying them... so do we make savings on paying nothing and now having to pay nothing?

 

[Smiffy]

One problem, who the **** would want to come here?

Apparently the PFA are circulating all out of contract players to exercise caution and contact them should any of their members be considering joining SUFC.

The police have been issuing the same warnings to sisters and daughters in Colchester for years. Its nothing new.

The transfer window shuts at the end of august but not sure when the loan deadline is.
we have not got to get it sorted by the beginning of the season why are people panicking just chill out and wait ffs

 

[Shrimper]

To be honest, I can't see us getting anyone until mid-August in an emergency plea to the PFA.

yeah thats alright then, so never mind not having enough players for us to play friendlys and the first few games of the season.!!! Please wake up and smell the roses, the club is shafted it doesnt matter if the transfer deadline shuts at the end of august, what do you expect us to do until then, just cobble together a team, no points and administration by end of august, would be a hard position to come back from

Whilsy you are correct a lot of the btter players are getting snapped up and were not even able to offer them anything. Plus were hardly a good option for anyone so even the players in our price range wont want to come here.
