| Just say for instance we sold Danny because of falling attendences to get a offer of £100,000 in, well surely selling Danny would mean even FURTHER drop in attendences????? false economy????

| Without having the inside information, I think that people may be being a tad unfair to our BoD. Yes it is gutting to consider selling our best players. I truly hope this is nothing and that nothing comes of it. However, we neither have the gates or sugar daddy support that some teams above and below us have.

100k is about 5500 paying fans in a whole year, plus his wages, ok say 10,000 fans round figures thats 1000 per home game for the whole package.
if our costings for the business were based on 7000 we have to sell
if based on 5750 ish we dont
my guess is they were based higher than 5750

Part of the reason we can't attract old fans back is because of "selling our best players" in the past
I agree with the theory but you can take 250 of the next gate and the gates for the rest of the season if you continue to sell players like DB.

merely the economist and accountant in me coming out, part of me knew something wasnt all right financially when we went for the naming rights raffle, struck me as a desperate move.
as a fan it stinks as its a short term fix, to the younger fans danny is a hero, like it or not. and i know hes not popular on here, but hes won us many more games than hes lost us and hes a winner, he goes to hudds im going to be very very peeved indeed.

| Am I the only one who's not over d about this? He has been far from his best for us this year, infact only the Bradford game sticks out in my mind as being on a par with his form from the first half of last year.
Take the money and run I say (if its available), after all - if he wants to go he strikes me as the kind of guy who could make life awkward for those blocking a move.

Most on here will tell you i'm not a big fan of DB, never have been, but thats not the point, we can't keep doing this.

| lets face it yesterday it was empty and that was wigan at home with the chance of going 2nd
hudds come in with money not spent on vagrants, we need 100k on current income projections to pay rest of teams wages, if its your company you sell, because its a business.
market data in the accountants ofice will say short of a big cup run attendances will project to go down rather than up from a point of 3rd and at home to go second, unless you think we are finishing top at end of season.
and then as a fan you think sod that its not a business its my passion, but then again im not underwriting the lossses.

| Think there is truth in the rumour but hope I'm wrong. Was really looking forward to Edinburgh but if this happens will take the edge off a bit. Have just heard that we are signing another player but don't know how true it is and I don't mean Korky.
