You seem to be failing to understand that you are not saving a single penny with your scenario.

No i do, what I'm trying to say is that while ww have a bigger income this season, it might be better using that to clear the deadwood so beale can actually start a rebuild, 

Our first team squad is huge, but half of it is pointless, our wage bill is extremely high for what we are getting in return, so even if we have cash spare for a transfer, the squad space and wage space is most likely not there, 

Yeah paying him off is a big chunk, but it frees up space in the squad and a weekly wage that can go towards a signing for beale,

It makes absolutely no difference whatsoever.

Of course it does, our first team squad is about 30 players the now, we cant keep adding to it without getting rid

Roofe, souttar, helander, 3 players who have contributed absolutely nothing bar roofes goal at the weekend there this season, we're nearly into February and 3 players on probably a combined 50 grand a week have gave us one goal and fuck all else this season

It still doesn't give us more money. All the rest of that means fuck all.

If we pay off Roofe for £2m and then bring in a new player on the same £25k per week it will cost us £4m over the next 18 months.

If we keep Roofe and bring in a player on £25k per week it will cost us £4m over the next 18 months.

Wages and Transfers come out of the same finances, they're not separate things.

Anyway this conversation has went on too long and it's going nowhere.

I think a lot of his problems are down to being weak both physically and mentally on the pitch 

[The Ibrox Derry 8,933]

Any news on the injury??

Type of injury, like an ankle roll, you can get if you haven’t been playing for a while. Mainly because your body hasn’t been regularly taking knocks, falling over, usual football rough and tumble.

Shite luck for him but it’s a symptom of hardly kicking a ball for a year. 

 

 

Right on the money.

I remember a couple of years ago Nicky Butt claiming that at the Man Utd academy they had an increase of broken arms and things like that and it had been put down to kids no longer climbing trees and playing like previous generations did when they were younger as you get used to falling over and not putting your arms in certain ways.

Correct mate .... its called recollective reaction as described by Butt .... most contact sports have similar adverse results due to this logical reason .... most likely in Roofe's case hopefully just a bruised joint.

If it's not a break but needs a scan/second opinion then it won't be as innocuous as a bruised joint

Rotator cuff or ligament damage possibly?

I was thinking ligament damage too - depending on how bad it is he could either be back in 3-4 weeks or that could be his season over

FFS - that’ll be months 😡

[Ivybank 4,621]

[Malkytfp1 18,653]

Oot the rest of the season with a scuffed elbow

Aye if it's not broken, it's not dislocated, and it's more than a bruise, then tendon or ligament damage are the only things I can think of? 

Been about 18 years since I did any anatomy / sports injury lessons though  

Fuck I'm getting old  

[esquire8 43,072]

Hopefully not out for long but with our knowledge of the man we know this could easily mean the season. 

[McEwan's Lager 30,669]

What is really annoying about this one is normally Roofe takes a while to get up to speed after injury but this time he looked to have come back really sharp and firing.

Bit too early for that is it not? Still got another year left on his deal.

It could just be really heavy bruising and an MRI clears that up? If that's the case then he's back in a few weeks. Worst case scenario we see him in May or next season?

if it’s a serious injury, i can’t see him being here by the summer tbh he’s a good player but will be another huge chunk of time missed, can see him heading back down the road this summer
