Under Les Ferdinand:
Luke Freeman, top assists in the league: 4million
Alex Smithies, great goalie for this club: 3,5million
Charlie Austin, 19 Premier League goals: 4million
Jack Robinson: Contract ran out, left for free
And many more mistakes
LES FERDINAND, IT'S TIME TO GO -
So basically we were never gonna be fielding Pugh again irrespective of covid situation? Bit of a ropey situation that - having a player on the books but unable to play him. I know it happens but, honestly, going forwards we (and all clubs) really need to get a grip of the finances and contractual side of things - when we sorted Pugh's contract out we were basically writing a cheque we couldn't afford to cash.... That can't happen again.Comment

It is a bit of a dated way to be issuing contracts , this sometimes happens with older players that have poor injury records that have a point to prove .I assume he was after a 2 year contract to start with but we weren’t so keen to commit to that .I think we had the same situation with Rob Green a few years ago .I think the contracts we gave to Eze , Bos and Manning are better where both parties have the option to extend by a further year if needed .So basically we were never gonna be fielding Pugh again irrespective of covid situation?

With our financial position I wouldnt be surprised that the remaining players with contracts expiring the end of June wont get extension offers until the 30th June.
Anything less than 2W and 1D from the three games to 30th June (Barnsley/Charlton/Fulham) and we can say goodbye to the play offs and the likes of Hall, Cameron and Rangel will probably leave the club. Doubt we can afford Hall and the other two due to age.
Any new contracts might be £3k a week if played in an empty stadium and £7k a week with fans allowed in.Comment

Send Clarke back, has shown us nothing! If Hall and Leistner have played last games for the club, we must keep Rangel surely? Even if just for the rest of the season. Don’t rate Kane, but him and Kakay as our RB choices for next season don’t fill me with any hope if I’m brutally honest.Comment

I wouldn’t worry about next season just yet , there will be plenty of coming and goings before that starts .Send Clarke back, has shown us nothing!

Don’t rate Kane, but him and Kakay as our RB choices for next season don’t fill me with any hope if I’m brutally honest.
