Ian,
Once again year after year we talk about dead wood, but we keep repeating and never learning and your right most clubs don’t want them as we paid them to much.

You`re correct about the need to clear out some of the dead wood which has come about by the policy of recruiting large numbers of players for many years now and taking the risk that some will succeed but some won`t and could be offloaded.
It is that offloading that is the problem. Of the players mentioned in this thread at least two (Sawyers and Campbell) have simply refused to move on as there is too much of a difference between what they are paid here and what they realistically could earn at another club.
The club also allowed managers such as Neil Warnock to overspend on both transfer fees and wages for players either not up to it and/or with little or no onward transfer value. That was the board of directors being too weak to stand up to him and stop his direct approaches to the owner to get his own way.

Right up with Gary Madine in useless signings.

2.9 Goods to be of a satisfactory quality
2.10 Goods to be fit for particular purpose.
Just a thought.

It's not wholly his fault, as the club agreed his contract...
But for me, pay him the portion of wages he will lose at another club and then show him the door...
Same for any of the current squad, as doing that frees up money for other players/areas to come in...![]()
Getting rid of 1 x Cambell + 1 x non-playing squad member would durely equate to the wages of a new incoming...?

Never not once did I say it was his fault but he must have thought all his xmas's had come at once.
Once again board too weak to reign managers in hence the need for a DoF and get non football people out of the way.
