    Milwall are a top Championship side. Its about how we invest the income.

    And also dont talk shit. Lincoln sold Makama to Norwich last summer, he was 21.

    I would say £2m is right but I thought 30% was the sell on fee either way £1.2-£1.4m profit is pretty good in a year

    If we are getting £2m net £1.2m for Jensen then thats good business. Really sad to see Young players depart but hopefully we have a significant sell on clause. £1.2m to invest at our level could be a real positive. Metcalfe has a season of work behind him. For sure his ceiling is high and I genuinely wish him the very best but its one season. We need to invest this money well!

    Phillips comes across as more of a Pattison replacement than a replacement for Leigh or Metcalfe

    It's a tough one really.

    We lost £3m last season in L2 and lets face it, losing another £3m in L1 is highly likely. So making let's say for arguments sake £1m after everything is levelled with Everton should be seen as great business. But do we bank that profit to try make the books look nicer? Or do we spend a few hundred of it to try find the next young lads to sell on?

    Let's say for arguments sake we get £1.2m for Metcalfe and £150k for power all rumoured obviously and then we bought Beesley for £250k and Phillips £300k again both rumoured prices we have £800k or thereabouts still available which is easily could be spent on another 2/3 quality players at this level.

    I wouldn't be surprised if we have 1 or 2 more of the metcalfe/ Pointon mould lined up

    The budget has been raised again so obviously we aren't sitting on our laurels.

    Not suggesting we sit on progress.

    More a situation of, we had a set budget but this sale has now given an option between banking the sale or investing even more to try push it along.

    Did we pay a fee though ? I didn't think we did and that's why Everton put in a bigger sell on clause as at first we didn't expect to get him permanently and were only expecting a loan deal.

    I might be wrong though but I thought sparks said that last summer.

    Tommy Leigh or Leigh Palin who was a classy talented and very skill full footballer.
