VI is being either delusional or dishonest in saying that this summer's dire contracts situation will not be repeated next summer. As long as this apparent £10k pw wage cap is in place, players with currently less than 2 years remaining will not extend. So next summer it's goodbye to Cantwell, Carter, Toth, Kargbo as well as Tyjon, Tronstad and Hedges. No worries then.

Plus Toth if he performs reasonably well.

Might be Xmas before it happens.

Dawson = Wes Brown/Gordon Greer and we all know how that ended.

Will be paid vastly more in Saudi and tax-free.

Hasn't played since release by Wolves in January.

Communication and honesty doesn't exist with this regime. The truth is that the club in general and the playing squad in particular is being downsized to reduce the losses to a level Venkys consider they can afford and the position of the club in the league is immaterial. The downgrading process may not end at L1 where the club will definitely be next season.

Potential fellow - relegation rivals have strengthened their squads significantly in the final days of the transfer window. Particularly Charlton and Hull.

Will just be used to pay a month's wages.

He wouldn't have come here knowing Boro were in for him.

Relentless cost-cutting. Losing Hyam guarantees L1 next season. But the losses resulting from relegation to the third tier will be reduced by another round of savage cost-cutting. That's life under these shit bags.

Fits well here then.

He was sidelined here by a groin injury. Looks like he has a significant weakness there. It could well sink any prospect of a huge transfer fee any time soon.

Rovers didn't get a tune out of Hirst - but Ipswich clearly did. O'Riordan is excelling on loan at Donny. Apparently Telalovic has moved on for a profit. Only Ennis has flopped.

Relegation beckons without the addition of a midfield signing of decent quality and preferably with Championship level experience.

Regarding the Gudjohanden goals. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Neither Sheff Utd nor Ipswich will finish below us. Probably Sheff Wed unless new owners before January. Otherwise Charlton, Hull and Oxford are the only teams that are potentially worse. PNE and QPR unlikely.

Not a mistake. A strategy to downgrade the club to fit into L1 and cut the losses by doing so.

Having known 6 weeks ago that he has some injury, Ismael says they are going "to assess" this week whether he needs surgery! You couldn't make it up.

He's even more useless when he starts. A yellow or ed card waiting to happen.

Noting transformational that's for certain. Midfield is desperately poor and will be even worse if anything happens to Tronstad .

They've signed players for L1. It's planning for the future.

Chris Brown would be an improvement on Gueye.

Absolutely need to get a decent midfielder before the window closes.m Will be utterly sunk if not.

Qualified for the Champions League group stage.
