Loan Arrangements Terminated

Wasn't last Saturday meant to be our last league fixture. The loan contracts probably only went upto end April anyway with a sub text that if we had qualified for the play offs, to be extended
Dont see anything out of the ordinary.
If and its a big if, the league gets going again, we just go with what squad we have and to be honest we've to many players anyway.
Loan player wages back to ther parent club.
I would assume Longridge & Hornby would have reverted back to us also after their loans from the National League

 

Insert any month from November onwards for that to be relevant

 

Pitch and now this shows we expect the season to not finish for me.

 

Personally, I think we'll release every out of contract player we have. We won't sign anyone until we know what's happening next season, it'll be a rush job and next season will be worse than this.

 

Posted this eleaewhere many times and I am sure people are bored of it by now but my thoughts are to end this season now. Open the transfer window immediately and leave it open until a week before new season begins whenever that may be.
Transfer windows are a nightmare for clubs on a budget anyway and Imo should be scrapped for everyone outside the premier league but that’s another argument. They cause panic and over stretching to cover every what if scenario.

 

For any clubs with a bit of wealth behind them, it'll be a buyers market like never before. Look at the amount of players who'll be on the market, the small number of clubs buying and the scarcity of money that will be kicking around. There'll be some rich pickings to be had and the divide between clubs even at our level, will grow. If ever there was a time to put some money into sparking development at the club, now would be the time. We could reset the club completely.

Won't happen though.

 

Over 800 players out of contract in the EFL come the end of June.
As we're in the Khazi league, we'll have plenty to choose from as and when next seasons starts.

 

We'll still leave it to the last minute to rummage through the bargain bin

 

Think about what we COULD do. The wider landscape in leagues 1 and 2 will be blitzed. Fire sales everywhere, clubs cutting costs, loads of good players on the market who'll have to drop their wage demands because supply will exceed demand, massively.

We could completely reset this club. Get out there and build a quality side for probably half the cost it would normally take. Get in early and sell the club to good players who'll be panicking about where and when they'll get a contract. And then we'd be competing against clubs who're forced to be weaker than normal. For a club with vision and ambition, and some money behind them this is a massive opportunity. And if he had the balls and interest, with a bit of throw down cash, Rupp could genuinely grow the value of his asset over the next couple of years for when the game and economy bounces back.

Not a cat in hells chance of it happening though.

 

After this is over I believe league 1 & 2 clubs will be reluctant to go back to paying silly wages to get a player to sign, I hope we don't lose any EFL teams but think it is inevitable, they have to learn from this, and if it means building slower on a sustainably level then I'm all for it.

 

Club hasn't been pro-active since Parky in that respect and I don''t expect it to change either just like yourself.
We are re-active to just about every decision made from top to bottom in the club.

 

I agree, I think there'll be a reset on player wages and fees at all levels, at least for a couple of years.

 

Can’t find it. Do you have a link?

 

As you posted an owner with a bit of forward thinking could do his transfer dealing early doors and get a head start on many clubs, although there is so much to get out of the way first.
