If Jones is not yet fit enough to play 90 minutes, something tells me he´s NOT at his best form yet. For god´s sake, keep him!

I doubt it would be much more than £1million.

If they offer around £2million we would have to think about it, especially as he will want Prem football, his form will drop at some point this season and we would get rid of a £1.8 million a year salary.

That's nearly £4million on a player in his last year and could get us a younger target man costing around £3milliin and on £20k a week.



Spot on a £4m saving for the club and with over £100m debt we just cannot afford to turn that down. Certainly not for a player who can walk away free at the end of this season.


:ole:


the best way to look at it, the way the club will be looking at it, is if he will play an important role in a promotion challenge, then losing (hypothetically) £4m, is a price worth paying if we can go straight back up with him in the team.

we also can't afford to be paying 8 players £30k+ a week, but we are. there are many players i'd get rid of before jones, despite his huge salary.
