Quote: jtfev "I see there is mixed feeling on here regarding the coach and next years squad Does any of you know what amount of salary cap the club have given him to spend because some may not like his new signings but if his budget is small what can he do The team wont be as bad next season but you need Chase off your books and away from the club
There won't be many clubs if any with so little to spend on the squad your ground will still be priority'"
I've little doubt Cas will have 1 of the smallest salary caps in SL but its about doing the best with what you've got. We've probably had one of the smallest caps over the last few seasons but have consistently pressed for the playoffs.
Most Cas fans were prepared to allow the on-field product to take a back seat this season provided there were developments with the new Stadium but there's been sweet F.A in that regard and if anything the new stadium looks less likely to happen than ever.
I agree it would probably make good financial sense for us to sell Chase. With the money gained from the sale and the saving on his wages we could probably get 3 or 4 very good players. I wouldn't be at all surprised though to hear the club say they were using the transfer fee to fund some fee associated with the stadium development. Which is ok if the stadium comes to fruition but as I've said - see previous paragraph...
