Why Joe Mason was sold

This is why Joe Mason left...

"Joe was not sold for football reasons but financial reasons. When we submit our accounts on Financial Fair play this will give us a much better chance of coming out of embarago in summer. It goes a long way to that. I did not want to lose Joe. You look where goals come from and and you don’t want to lose goals because it’s detrimental."

he over rates Mason anyway, so its not a bad thing all round.

Fair enough, underastand the financial reasons but why the f**k are we signing players on loan?

Just make do with what weve got that gives us a better chance of getting out of FFP in the summer.

because, regardless of what you or i think of our chances to make the playoffs, its still a possibility.

Forget getting promotion, but just the playoff semi finals would pay for the loan players, and all the money from losing the playoff final would be significant.

Someone at the club must still believe we can make a push.

Plus, imagine if we didn't I'm sure you'd be the first one complaining about lack of ambition. The club still need to show some kind of forward thinking attitude or deal with even more apathy from fans!

11.5 K a week maximum isn't going to break the bank it seems, one out one in on signings ,47K a week saved on Jones and Mason already 3.5 million in the bank seems like good business to me looks like the club are learning from past mistakes

Why would I be the first one to complain? Im delgithed we are under embargo so Slade doesnt get a penny to waste.

This season is a right off lets get to the summer, bullet slade and go again.

PaulH & Nubbsy are spot on with this.
Whilst there is an outside chance the club have to show ambition and rightly so.
I'm pretty sure the loan signings will have no detrimental effect on us clearing the embargo conditions in the summer at all.

47k a week over 5 months thats still nearly a million quid. Why not make use of the players already here before blowing another million quid?

We obviouslyu couldnt afford Kenwynnes wages Wez, thats why we are in this difficulty. Just because you spend his wages on 3 players that doesnt mean it becomes affordable. Still spending money we havent got. Simple economics.

its a shame we cant send ameobi back.


assuming that 47k a week figure is correct, plus whatever we were paying Watt - Immers and this new guy plus anyone else we bring in.

means we have to still be saving a decent amount that will be good till the end of the season. we have bigger problems in the summer, realistically players like macheda and Fabio will have to be moved on

On 3 players still make a 17 K a week saving and 3.5 million in the bank the great business ,the problem was big contract s on average players in the premiership I hope the club have learnt there lessons

It would be even better business if we didnt sign 3 players on loan and make use of the players weve got.

It would also have been good business to tell Tamas to f**k off when he threw his toys out of his pram and said he wasnt returning instead of pussy footing around him. Another waste of a wage.

Agree with Tamas but we needed more pace in our team hopefully new players will give us that and they are cheap

Totally agree with Polo.

Why not give one of our youth players a chance who are hungry to play for CCFC instead of wasting the money that would be spent on wages.

Good job Slade wouldn't know a good player if he seen one then

Hopefully all these cut backs will give a new manager in the summer a chance to rebuild

Can't blame Slade at all for this It was the most logical thing to do in our position.

We've got to show SOME ambition, and if I read this correct both loan players are being signed with an option to buy in the summer.

As for youth players, what striker have we got in the youth who can step up ?

Tim, Our club has to get out of the mess that our own owner has put us in, but at the same time Fans want to see ambition by our club.

Tans be in charge for 5 years,its all down to him now the current position of our club. 5 years is a long time.

Feel sorry for slade people want promotion but ain't got money to buy players and we've just sold mason who the club have spent a lot of time developing.
You can say what you like about mason he did score goals for us .

I no slade has his problems but when you look at the ambitions of other clubs and the money they spend we are way off so realty needs to come into it and expectations should be more realistic.

Slades hands are tied by Tan a top management team would want funds we ain't got none so when you look at the bigger picture although slades football is dire to watch he has done a fair job of it for us in reality.

Yeah last 5 years been the most successful in our history facts on the pitch don't lie

It wouldn't matter if we did have a star quality young striker because Slade wouldn't play him anyway
