Sturrock has said that 8 players will leave or go on loan so lets have a guess. The 3 best Amigos Adams Blackburn Mohamid Ali Pook Allen/Tozer I think maybe the top 5 will get the contracts terminated/sold and the others go out on loan. Adi williams may even get loaned out to regain some fitness or alternativly just sell Brez and keep everyone

Could this be in addition to Allen, Tozer and Caton, who are surely not really 1st team squad. If so, I'd say-
Anzite Arrieta Almeida Mohammed (Loan) Adams (released/contranct not renewed) Brezovan Blackburn (Loan, depends on Vincent/Smith injuries) Sturrock (loan until Jan, extend if Cox stays) -------------- Caton (released) Tozer (loan) Allen (loan)

Kaid Mohammed to Wrexham maybe? Unless their manager gets the chop Sam Collins is expected to return up north once his loan spell ends

Blackburn will be a loan with option to recall at short notice.
Mohammed is a player Luggy wanted for future development as was Blackburn to an extent.
Adams I think will be released.
I'd like Sturrock to go out on loan but won't happen.

Think this is the first sign of the inevitable decline of our season.....our promising start is based on squad strength, it will infect the players with negative vibes, kick on to the fans and hasten the fall in crowd size. The Jan window wil see players sold.
The only thing that can salvage this is a takeover that might seem decent.....not a dodgy Portugeezer style affair.

This will definately be detrimental to the team- cut competition for places. I have no issues with the bEST players being offloaded though.
Agree with Reg- player sales are inevitable in January should the current shower remain.

Regardless of who is responsible, the fact remains we have an unsustainable wage bill. Cuts have to be made regarless of the medium/long term consequences, unfortunately.
It is my firm opinion not to be confused with fact that Diamond said the he will no longer be finding the £750k per annum to cover losses, and in a probably totally unrelated point Sir Seaton is out of money. Alegedly.
Last time such noises were made we were relagated to division 4. Lets hope this tkaeover loosens the purse string a little if/when it happens.

I would love it if the five players we got rid of were ones that were entirely superfluous to our squad.
But lets face it what's driving this isn't Luggy sitting around thinking "I've got too many players to deal with, let's get a few out", but the board and Mikey screaming "Get the wage bill down we're skint!".
And that means that the players that go out are going to be the ones that we CAN get out. And that means that it can be just about anyone. And I'm going to just assume that when Coxy's loan deal is up he's gone. I very much doubt they'll be money avalable to renew it.
