Animis Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I think this is why Bruce is coming the day after the transfer window ends. No pressure, and no expectation of any business. Bruce's job is to stabilise Wednesday over the next four months and agree the players exit, and who is coming in over the summer for next season's campaign. This will all be done under the terms of the FFP, particularly if the EFL set an example with Birmingham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owls maniac Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 We need to get on with the blood letting. If we can Reach and one or two others off the books then it will go a long way to fixing our problems. Unfortunately DC has shown no sign that this is the route he intends to go down, instead he is looking for some loophole that the rest of the league has missed.

It should be safe to assume if we’ve bought them we can afford them. You’re little rant is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
