    Sparks said “we would not let someone like Vaughan go to one of our rivals and certainly not without significant compensation”.
    Bare faced lied to every fan who listened along. Won’t even bother listening to the next one

    Your Vaughan and Wood prophecy looks wide of the mark.

    Didn't Ryan mention something about anyone signed before the salary cap will only count as £68k rather than their full annual salary ?.

    That's always been Stuarts way of running the football side of things, bringing someone in who he believes can play but more a player who wants to be at the club and is part of a happy dressing room, you only need the one bad egg.
    I thought Ryan made a very good point with regards the money (lets say spent wrongly) by Rahic and we could have been near administration on December without Rupp committing himself financially to steady the ship, what a **** that Rahic was.

    Not sure that is strictly true....its as @Bronco@Bronco put it above.

    Players currently under contract as of june 30th will have their wage capped at 68k , so affectively £1300 per week.

    We had 14 players currently under contract, theorectically if all them 14 were earning £1300 per week that would bring us to approx £950k leaving £550k (approx 5k per week) to spend on the rest. Unless the push for extra dispensation for players under 21 gets voted in

    Thats my interpretation anyway

    If you are putting the first admin on him then you must credit him on us reaching the premiership. On top of that promotion two play offs a major cup final and six years of progression. And the money he made in negotiating the McBurnie transfer has kept us afloat during lockdown. Not bad that is it

    On the subject of James Vaughan the club basically spelled it out.
    He's contracted to us and if someone wants him in this transfer window you better get the the cheque book out.
    That applies to all contracted players not just Vaughan.
    If Vaughan as approached the club and had a private conversation with Stuart about his future at the club I wouldn't expect it to become common knowledge until a suitor comes forward and a financial deal his agreed by both parties.
    In other words he ain't going nowhere until someone flashes the cash.

    There is a programme for clubs available on the iPad or computer that list every pro footballer once identified on there that’s when the work starts go and watch for yourself take opinion of others and talk face to face technology saves time and money in football as it does in most sectors of life

    That's quite possible and doesn't surprise me at all. The PL clubs effectively have first dibs on young talent under the EPPP arrangements and therefore probably have already hoovered up the crème de la crème of the youngsters. If it is the case, it looks like the blues stole a march on their local rivals!

    Backed it to a hilt is a massive exaggeration. He will get his money back from the club and has taken most of the Mcburnie money to cover previous losses.

    My biggest worry was Ryan saying he would find a someone who would be a benefit to the club.....now where have I heard that before?

    Ryan Sparks is a yes man. Someone to try and appease the fans. In a way i feel sorry for him because the fans anger will now be pointed at him instead of Rhodes and Rupp.

    If they had a sample of lots of questions, which fans could vote on to decide what the club should talk about, it would be evidence of an open relationship. I guess some could say, that it will be micro managed and will avoid any ‘difficult’ areas.
