Ok, so a couple of things stand out.The previous model was unsustainable, we needed to change.To half the wage bill, without a similar plan would almost certainly resulted in relagation and a poorer player coming to the club.We will now get to see top quality players at Rovers, at a sustainable cost.These players are playing for there futures, no one will be interested in them if they do no perform, do not give there all, are part of a losing team or playing crap football.The difficult part is gelling them together and getting results, we will see what happens, but we definitely had to try something.Exciting and interesting times.

You base that comment on what?

One off the biggest problems in football is how much money agents are taking out of the game. What the board have done here is safeguard rovers from paying any of these fees other than £5k a year. All the money Willie stands to make is from other clubs, this will save us a fortune. If this comes off, it is a master stroke. If it doesn't, the club will have to live at a sustainable level under the previous structure, which is not the Championship. In simple terms be different and stand a chance of being a championship club or go down without a fight.

Do apologise if I'm wrong. I took the number from the club's official web site players' profile page:LinkScroll down the players list and you'll see Pascal Chimbonda is player number 39.Surely the club's web site wouldn't get it wrong?Well, then again... :S If you wish to ignore certain players on the list then it all gets a lot easier. Just decide which £4M worth of what's left you'd like to get rid of. Top third or bottom two thirds? Pretty much adds up to the same I guess. I suspect offloading £4M off the wage bill in double quick time will be a mammoth task, even if you cancel the contracts and give the players away. Can it really be that easy?
How do Barnsley survive at this level?
