Gestede said more than once that incoming fees will not be added to the budget that was set. We are fine with ffp...we spend penny's on incoming transfers and the playing squad wages have been cut way down from what they were previously. So going off your logic we should sell Hyam, Brittain, Tronstad and Travis this summer as they all have one year left. Do you think we would still be a championship club going into 26/27 if we do this?

Why? We have been told by Gestede that none of the transfer fees received will be added to the budget for recruitment. I'd feel more confident of not being relegated with a bit of experience in the team in tronstad rather than having a central midfield with no championship experience. If the situation is the same as Gestede said that incoming transfer fees don't effect the budget then replacements for whoever we sell will have to come out of the budget set by the owners at the beginning of the summer Not a hope in hell we would be able to replace Travis; Tronstad and Brittain with anything close to similar quality without using their fees.

Quite probable they will cash in on Travis before the window shuts but I think Tronstad will be here for next season. Ismael said that Tronstad doesn't want to leave this summer and he ran his contract down at his previous club so I think he will give us one more season and then look at his options

He was sent back from his loan at Bolton due to injury.He also got injured when in Scotland. His injury issues didn't just appear when he signed here

His other loans away he got injured quite a bit aswell, quality player at this level but injuries would have to be a concern going off his history

My mistake it was Valentin who Preston signed

Yang Valery signed for preston earlier in thr summer

So according to you nobody wants Dolan. Yet he won't entertain signing another contract here. Why? Surely if he hasn't had any decent offers elsewhere he would have been more inclined to reopen talks or sign a contract with us? He will 100% have offers like

How do you know he doesnt have offers from Championship clubs?Just because he hasn't committed to anyone doesn't mean he hasnt had offers?

They can take Windass without having to come to an agreement over a transfer fee or factoring in what it would cost them at tribunal. Dolan will 100% have interest and no doubt taking his time considering them it's a big move in his career.

Yeah but in fairness jdt had one of the full backs pushed on playing like they had a free role, they had the worst goalkeeper I'd seen in Whalstedt behind them and players like Markanday and Garrett starting a number of games yet riding the bench in League One and 2 the following season In JDTs first season we took a few hammerings but in the main the defence was solid

If he goes to another club in this country then yes we will get compensation Set by tribunal If the club getting him can't agree a fee with us.

If a championship club is taking him they will be trying to agree a fee with Rovers rather than letting it go to tribunal .He won't be a "free" for a championship club With the amount of appearances made it will easily be over a million if it goes to tribunal more if someone is offering Dolan a decent contract as his salary at his new club will be taken into account If the tribunal are setting his price

The real issue is the owners

Challenging...but not getting in them. And that was with some experience ans we werent just recruiting players with no championship experience and who had just been relegated with their previous clubs. We lose Brittain and even just 1 or Travis and Tronstad we certainly won't be getting anywhere near the playoffs

We will miss Brittains crossing.He will be a big loss Is Drameh any good.Why are Hull looking to get rid after only signing him last summer?

No wonder the rb was so happy, coming in as first choice ffs.Brittain will be a huge loss

Because we are doing everything on the cheap whilst our rivals spend big money on signings If it was easy to make a successful team with cheap signings then every club would be doing it You don't think it is a worry that all our signings so far have been cheap by championship standards,they have all come from clubs that got relegated last season and they have zero championship experience? Nobody has said that you can't pick up good players for low fees

Is this supposed interest from Sunderland not from when they were a championship club? They have already brought in a couple of midfielders for big money are they really going in for this guy at £1.5 million?.Surely if they really wanted him they would have that deal done not coming in at the 11th hour when he has already flown to another club to get a deal done

Of course it is a nominal fee. Or do you think £500k is big bucks as a transfer fee in the championship( it probably only reaches that figure if clauses are met appearances etc) We have probably paid an initial 300 grand for him

If we are going to loan in a young player from the Premier league then I'd like to see us take a chance on Danns from Liverpool. No chance Doak or George will be loaned to the Championship. Doak will get a prem permanent transfer this window and if George goes on loan it will be to a Premier league team or European top division side

We are still looking for a centre back?The articles are saying we won't be signing a batth replacement, so only interested in bringing in 1 centre back not 2

One thing i will say this is the third signing now they have kept under wraps until the deal has been practically done. Don't think any of the 2 signed or this guy have been mentioned anywhere until a day or so before the club announced them

If this guy is back up for Brittain then fair enough but if it a replacement then another downgrade (iv not seen any of this guy but I doubt very much he will be better or as good as Brittain) another small wage signing. Must be loaning Duru out again. A centre back and first 11 attacking reinforcements desperately needed

I seen a few mentions of JRC to Charlton earlier...just from a few supporters on Facebook saying it was being discussed on one of the Charlton fans forums
