Well done lads, now like Jack says, go on and win it. Good to see so many happy faces in the crowd. We?ll see thousands more with a bit of luck if we finally press on with the stadium development we?ve all been waiting for. The haters will be hating it, the Gabby Agbonlohor?s will be going out of their minds after yesterday. I?m so pleased for the fans, I maybe biased but I still think we have the best fans in England. Ownership will change, as will the players, but the real driving force of this club is the supporters. Must say I felt a bit sorry for Mateo Joseph yesterday. He?s not had the best season but he?s played his part, and it might have been nice for him to get the minutes given to Harry Gray. That was the clearest indication you can get that you?re no longer required. Anyway, time for us to get the blood pressure back down and enjoy the last couple of games.

Will the likes of Bamford, Meslier .etc now return to premiership wages?

they all will

Surely it will only apply to those players who were in the squad that was relegated from the premiership and had their salaries halved?  Surely those that joined this year will not get a doubling of their current deal?

nope. contracts will say we go up wages increase by, say, 20%. we go down your wages reduce by 20%.
standard contracts. incentives.
they also have a bonus for staying up.
not that either meslier or bamford could be here next year of course

What do we reckon for next season then with regards to incomings and outgoings ? 


Think we need at least 8 coming in if not more. 


Keeper
Left back
Centre back 
Centre mid x 2. 
Winger at least one if not 2. (Solomon plus one other)
A Number 10
A Number 9 maybe 2 of them 


Meslier goes as does Firpo. Possibly Bamford who I think has one year left. Joseph goes on loan. Ramazanni goes on loan. Not sure Gruev good enough at that level. 



Do we bring in Rothwell permanently for squad depth? 


Need to buy well and will need circa £150m
