Contracts and loan deals

[Tangled up in Blue]

Given the imminence of the transfer window opening in January could some kind soul give us a breakdown of which players we have signed up on contracts(and when they expire)and which players we have on loan deals(and when they expire)?
If we really need cash for a firesale in January then Barney,Macca and Francis would be the obvious transfer targets.
If we just need to reduce the wagebill can we ship Freedman out in January?

We tried this around the same time we loaned out Walker and Revell, but no (other mugs) wanted him

Depends on what the firesale is trying to achieve. They are probably 3 of the top-earners, so if we were trying to reduce salary they'd be near the top of the list but if we are looking to raise funds our most valuable assets are likely to be Grant and Moussa.

My contracts thread is here.

Not sure about the loanees.

Not sure if you're referring to players we have on loan or our players out on loan.
Wycombe fans say Betsy's loan runs out after this weekend's game but one of them says he's heard we've got a deal in place to swap him for Duberry!:O

According to the OS we have Morrison until January 9th -

Not sure about Malone. His loan was extended last week (presumably for 4 weeks) which would take it up to about January 20th.

We're in talks with Millwall regarding Barnard. Or so I hear...

Er...both.Thanks for the information.:)

ESB-where did you hear that then?:unsure:

A two man team.That would be novel(if illegal under the rules).:)

 

[jamesmut2000]

TBH I heard that rumour weeks ago - only that Macca was going with him. I have no idea how reliable that info is - just another one of those things you hear so often - there may be some truth in it or it could be completely made up!!

Mate of mine works for Southwarks News. Said they've been in talks this week about a move.

And Moussa sureley....

Both Morrison and Malone are out of contract in the summer.

If Barney goes to a fellow league one side, I wont be happy. Ecspecially as he is a local lad. Millwall are no better than us if and when we get rid of a few wasters that are currently contracted until 2010

Millwall lost in last years play-off final and are just outside the play-offs this year. If no championship clubs come in for him I suspect Barney would think a club like Millwall offers him a better chance of playing in a higher division next year than staying with us does. They can probably pay him more also.

The whole administration thing with players not being paid and bonus being owed will not help things in extending contracts or even getting new players in. Why would Barnard want to re-sign for us with all what has just gone on. A sideways move to Millwall maybe better for him in he may feel confident in being paid on time. The key thing is he is a local lad so may not want to move away but Millwall is fairly easy to commute to from Billericay. I just pray he at least decides to see the season out and see his options and sees how southend have down and sees how the stadium is progressing. Anyone who believes we should cash in on him now, be aware we will be lucky to get 50k, as he is out of contract in a few months time and no club at this level will splash alot of cash when they can pickup free transfers when its Barnard or another at the end of the season.

I think the "more" is superfluous.

However, Millwall are massively in debt and are spending in an attempt to get out of this division so that their debt can be reduced, another failed season and they may well have to tighten their belts

Glad to be able to help! :)
Tried looking on our OS to see when Rev's loan runs out but it doesn't give a date in January. However have just done a bit of searching on Swindon's OS and they say his loan runs out on Sunday.

I've heard a rumour about players going to Orient - I hope there is no truth in that one but I fear it could be so !!

So presumbably SUFC have given him permission to play in Swindon's Cup game at Fulham on Saturday.
On the basis perhaps that we're no longer in the cup and no club in a higher division(ie The Championship) would want him.:'(
