West Yorks Rover Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Just now, Stuart said: You can imagine the conversation: "The fans and press are expecting a statement from the family. What would you like me to tell them?" "Write something for us. We are not going to sell. Nothing has changed. Make it sound better than that of course." Plus, at least mutual consent is out of the window. They want him to stay so if he goes it's because he has resigned as well. TM can go to India and ask them to back up their statement that they will back him. "Sorry Tony, what statement have we made?" If I was TM I wouldn't go anywhere near the place, he might just disappear on that long taxi ride back to the airport, save them having to pay him off.

Backroom Tom Posted May 8, 2017 Backroom Posted May 8, 2017 Interesting that the word 'sorry' doesn't appear, again no admission of any fault on their part
Dunnfc Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Imagine Mowbray if he's gone tomorrow.... Cheston would surely be a goner. This has potential for even further embarrassment

Same for mulgrew, Bennett etc. do some research and examine how we will have to comply pal Well I have look at the rules actually but you just keep talking down to me. Does Graham's contract has a wage drop relegation clause in the contract since you seem to know what in his contract Just now, Irishrover213 said: Was at the game Chaddy so didn't hear the interview. Saw graham been interviewed. I really hope they doffer but I'd be fearful they could be off loaded Said to a fan after yesterday game

Mike Graham Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 "We share the same feelings as our supporters". sod off sod off sod off The above statement is the ultimate insult. I feel so blooming angry. It looks like it was written by Grooby.

I like Mowbray but if he has any sense he will be straight out of the door. I wouldn't speak too soon. Blings numpty of a brother will likely be lined up for sky sports or the like soon to convey his confusion once again. Statement is yet another in an endless line of insults at us.
Gone to seed Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Platitudes, and worse than that, condescending and arrogant claptrap dressed up as platitudes. Backward stawt, the lot of them.
A cup of beans Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 It reads like another @#/? take. We need to stand together, but come August most will carry on regardless. Empty Ewood and take over the away stadiums is the only way out of this.

Does Graham's contract has a wage drop relegation clause in the contract since you seem to know what in his contract Said to a fan after yesterday game I'm not quite sure why you are arguing with him. Whatever Graham is on it'll be much more than a League 1 player. And if you can somehow remember what has happened over the past 7 years then you must be able to simply compute that very soon our player level will be League 2 standard. There's nothing to suggest that the pattern is changing. This is why the decline continues, we keep replacing players of the league we are in with lower league players.
J*B Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Just so everyone is clear, the average wage for a league 1 player is 70k p/a. That is just under 1.5k per week. Now, you can include some kids in that. So let's speculate, and say the average senior player is 4 times that - 6k per week. Danny Graham is on 26k a week. Now unless he is taking a 80% wage cut for relegation, he isn't staying. Thats not even considering that we would have ten times the debt of any other club in league 1.
G Somerset Rover Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Graham, Mulgrew and co. wouldn't even be sticking around if we could pay them their current wage.

Take your time and read this a few times. Reality needs to dawn, otherwise you'll be fked when it finally hits you. There is no resurrection while these ..... remain. Their only hope was the Seneca offer. Another won't be coming for years and years.

Often they include appearance bonus, goal bonus, clean sheet bonus and things like NI contribution. But the reality is Graham is on 26k BASIC. So it's fair to compare in this case.

In the Championship it's £7kpw according to that chart. I doubt Danny Graham is on £26k pw.
chaddyrovers Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Just now, blueboy3333 said: Where does the £26k pw come from? Ive asked this. No response. Billy Sharp is on 20k a week at Sheff Utd.

We are paying over 100% on turnover in wages alone. Consider Preston, Burnley etc who have wage caps. Danny Graham is on 26k a week from numerous sources. Now factor in that as with all contracts, he is entitled to that amount for the full length of his contract UNLESS he hands in a transfer request. The liability on his contract alone is massive.
