Yes we can when he has two and a half years left on his contract and when we're not in debt. His value will only continue to rise and now somebody else will profit.
By accepting that offer we have guaranteed 6-7000 crowds. Do you honestly think people are going to come back now? That is being real.
Yes we can. If the club have told us the truth they are balancing the books on income against outgoings, without selling players to keep us out of debt.
Give over mate. You think by us selling a player 3k fans are going to stop coming? If they do, they're supporting the wrong club.
OK, let's be real. Having to sell promising young players when they've just broken into the first team, coupled with the inflated "prize" money in the Premier League that means the bottom club next season will get £60m shows an absolute gulf opening up. So we can't compete, we won't even be able to compete in this division. Based on that, do I really want to shell out £400 a year?
We can if we're self-sufficient, and also if there's no pressure on the club to sell due to either the player wanting away or his contractual situation forcing our hand.
Its the message it sends out Dyson.. Defeatist and not interested in trying to build a core of a team that can actually compete at the right end of the table.. If we cannot show some resolve and keep one of our younger, lower earners on a lengthy contract who has expressed his desire to play for the club and wears the shirt with pride then what is the point
Wigan are paying more for Stones than Man Utd did for Rafael. It's the second biggest transfer fee in our history. It proves we can develop players and turn them into quality laikers. It gives us options to strengthen. We probably could show some resolve. Is it fair to deny him the opportunity to speak to Wigan? He can always turn them down if he wants to play for us so much. Glass half full.

It makes me want to do it more. It's the World we live in that's ****, not our club. The harder it is to compete, the better it is when you do.
We won't be using the money to strengthen. Bet thi. Get houses on it Pat. Time to realise the investment.
That is 2k less. And yes, now we have invited relegation do you see us averaging more that that in League 1? I thought I was being generous with that estimate! I think Don just wants to leave a healthy balance sheet when he retires in the summer.
There is a lot more to come from John Stones, he will continue to develop and will end up at a top 4 club in my opinion and I honestly think his price will have doubled come the summer. Typical of the current board, for once we seem to be holding all the cards but we still end up showing our hand and not getting true value
