I am curious because the club is not going to reach the season ticket threshold set by MC and apparently we have only reduced our cash flow problem to £300,000 how many more of the current squad are we going to need to offload before we have released sufficient funds to actually start signing new players. We are running out of players who can be sold for cash so I presume they will need to transfer their attention to reduce the salary bill, the downside to this is that you need to offload a greater number of players to have the same effect on the debt that money from a sale will produce.

I fear the board has painted itself into a corner so unless they are able to generate additional income away from season tickets sales a greater number of players will need to be offloaded than would have been necessary.

As many as it takes. Trinity don't have a rich backer and dont have a large core of support who will purchase a full price season ticket. The books have to be balanced somehow.

As you rightly say we aren't gonna sell loads of season tickets, I'd guess we'll finish selling when DK, Ben C, Justin Poore and Paul Aiton have all been sold, sad but that's where we find ourselves unfortunately.

I'd add Collis to that list as well but aftet that theres probably not much transfer value left in the remaining players.

Is Agent XIII James Elston as has been mentioned on here before. If so he really has a sad little existence.

Wasn't the 300k reached about 2 weeks back? There has been 2? Sponsorships signed. Aiton has left since along with Amor? So there would be more off the 300k plus more ST sales all be it not a massive amount.

The £300,000 was after all the player sales other than Aiton and Cockayne so yes it could be down to £200,000 shortly but I wonder if that that would be announced. I doubt we would get any money for Poore & Collis because of their nationality.

This means that because of the way our situation was announced by MC until we exceed a saving of £400,000 we cannot sign any players. I would expect that if this figure is to be reached before MC will release any money we can expect to see the majority of our first team squad sold or released.

The people on here who feel this is a price worth paying just remember that when we are being trounced on a weekly basis and our crowds are down to around 5,000 if we are lucky, You will be able to shout to the supporter next to you that it is worth it. I hope MC has not budgeted for crowds like last season because he is going to be greatly disappointed the way the team is shaping up.

To those who think I am James Elston I am not and unlike some on here I do not have a sad little existence nor do I live in the world according to the board.

Apparently us (hull kr are close to signing justin poore for a fee?

If I was Carter I would offer you a good discount on Poore if you'd take fox back as part of the deal.

I still find it hard to understand why you trot out this anti MC stuff bit but never raised an eyebrow when JE and AG were wracking the debt/causing the future cash flow problem in the first point.

Why we're you so anonymous then but such a tediously vocal one trick pony now?

I doesn't stack up, it really doesn't!!

In all fairness Kinley the harris licking of Glover and Elston carried on strongly on these boards right up to the final few days of their demise. Anyone who dared to suggest the truth was branded an idiot by many on these forums.

Quite a few had a good idea what the pair of clowns were up to but decided not to post their concerns.

I think this is the nub of the problem as I have pointed about on here over the last few weeks and not received an answer!



Before people start banging on about me being Andrew Glover I would point out that they were probably the same people who said 1.2 million loss was fine in the first year ...
