    I'd go and look at the Quote from him. Judge us by our actions. Also, it should include the truth of the WORD.

    But it's a contract that we cannot afford to honour.

    Maybe not and maybe we could doubt he was a top earner plus many players had wage reductions written in contracts on relegation. you have to get the best deals possible when selling players.

    How does asset stripping a team build a foundation? I’m sorry but that puts us as strugglers in L1, then what? Asset strip again when we hit L2…. Where does it end?

    This is the reality of relegation to league 1 ,I don't know how fans think shock and horror selling our best players.
    8 million got a come from somewhere.
    Mid table, ballance the books and start again it's not the current boards fault .
    The annoyance should be to Conman he's as bad as Ridsdale.

    No, they have said nothing about it being a record transfer for them and their current record is only £1.2m btw - the 1.5m quoted in some places was in EUROS

    Asset stripping is where you come into a club and sell all the players and take all the money out of the club.
    We’re selling players to try and stay solvent and afloat after the previous board spunked our cash reserves up the wall and made two terrible coaching appointments.

    There are some really over the top but predictable reactions on here.

    it seemed clear that there would be sales and almost an understanding and acknowledgement that it would be necessary amongst most. Now it has happened people are throwing their toys out of the pram.

    it sounds like he wanted to leave which is fine and weakens our negotiations. We might want to keep the fee undisclosed to help us with our own negotiations for future incomings. Maybe Luton had it as part of the deal?

    Like someone else has said, maybe this wouldn’t have been necessary if other offers had been better.

    for those giving the board stick. Remember they have already put money in this summer.

    The best deal is the amount anyone that the player is willing to play for is willing to pay.

    Leon Wobschall tweeted that we had turned down an offer elsewhere.

    Fact is, we have no idea how much we've got for him. But it surprises me how on this board in general, there's a quick dismissal of how much we receive for players, while believing that we paid 1m for Schmidt.

    You can argue that, however the controlling majority of the previous board are not. You can argue James Cryne was on the board and is loving the fact that the club is in legal action with his other concern.
    The action taken by the current board to remove Paul Conway and Chien Lee indicates that they were not happy with the status quo.
    Their actions since indicate a shift in strategy but also a realisation of where we are as a club.

    Yep.. everyone knew we were going to have sell this summer. So why the big shock? The fact that other clubs only want our better players is also not a shock

    Can't believe this touches the sides financially - Morris was only on c. £4k a week and presumably had a relegation clause reducing that to £3k or below. And the initial fee will be less than £1.2m and will be paid in instalments as usual giving us minimal imminent cash towards our black hole.

    I’m just basing on his comments from what I read on ours and their website, may have resulted in 2+2 =5 but that’s what I’ve come up with.

    Is the fee being paid in instalments an issue? We don’t have a £7-8m bill to pay straight away, it’s more operating losses, that this transfer fee will help to plug. So if it’s instalments over the year, what’s the problem?

    We’re also assuming that they would announce it as a record signing if it was over 1.2m. Why?

    If it was over lutons 1.2million pound transfer record it would have been stated. Even if undisclosed like brad potts fee was when he left to Preston.
