Anybody explain this.
It is says in this article that the current budget is costing 200,000 per month.
This is 2.4m annually.
I thought the budget was 4.5m and will be cut to 2.4m.
These figures being bandied about never seem to add up

Can't see that in this article? Only figure mentioned is Ferry's wages rising to 2.8k p/w In the MacDonald interview it does say this - The Robins are expected to slash their football budget, believed to include backroom wages, to around 200,000 a month from the start of next season - a reduction of 50 percent - as the club look to focus on the development of younger players over the signing of top-dollar senior pros. which may be the source of confusion. I appreciate it's early so will let you off  |

Gutted to see Si leave as a player and as a character. I'm sure he'll get a good contract elsewhere soon though. Thanks for the effort Si!  |

He still in League 1 or move to scotland. Don't think he's good enough to be a regular to be in the championship- too inconsistant.

Surprised that we didn't take up to the option if only in the hope we got a decent offer on him, we could at least recoup our outlay for him I'd have imagined.

My take is we didn't want to risk getting saddled with his increased wages. Adver say it would have been 2800 p/w. |

I think he's worth that sort of money to be honest. 2800 ain't big money. We are going to have kids on 500 quid a week by the looks of it. False economy if they ain't good enough.

As I said in the other thread, where was this decent offer expected to come from? Have we been beating off offers for him with a shitty stick for the last few years that I've not noticed? Why didn't we sell him in January rather than Ritchie? Oh I know, because no fucker bid for him. |

It doesn't really matter what I reply here because you're just going to go off on one as usual, aren't you? As far as I can tell the decision to release Ferry was in order to keep McCormack. Ferry is more likely to attract a transfer fee than McCormack and on that basis I'd have thought that keeping Ferry over McCormack on the off chance we can sell him would fit in with the current climate of reducing the wage bill and sustainability... it's pretty much what Fitton intended. Of course, none of us know what sort of wage McCormack is on so it could be that Ferry was released because his salary was double what McCormack earns in which case it makes perfect sense. |

He's a young player who we would have been paying 3k a week basically to put him in the shop window. He's out of contract in 12 months so interested clubs wait 6 months and sign him on a Pre-contract for nowt. I can see the sense in releasing him, McCormack staying is important now I think.
