    The League One financial rules for newly relegated clubs are that player wages can't exceed 75% of turnover. Turnover includes any money put in by the owner as long as it isn't in the form of loans.

    Therefore, if an owner wants to buy promotion by keeping or signing high earning players he can do so whereas he couldn't under FFP rules in The Championship.

    So equity and fake sponsorship are OK but loans aren't?

    Let's hope tomorrow's the day Ajose actually becomes a Charlton player and then we start getting linked with some good midfielders and defenders hopefully dean cox is the next one through the door ????

    One slight problem no one left yet ?
    so we still have a big squad
    Only a matter of time though. Certainly will lose JBG and Cousins or Kashi - if not both. Tucadean, Henderson will go. Tiexiera and Watt probably will. And who knows what will happen with Lookman? It's going to be another big turn over if players.....AGAIN.
    I reckon all those named either want to go or the Belgians want to offload them.

    Six debuts for the Bury game.

    Will stoke the protest up nicely for the Northampton game if Bury turn us over.
    Just financial thats why a lot of the big earners have to leave under new rules in league one even if we wanted to we can't keep them
    Oh yeah, the players are really wanting to play in division 3.....
    Lookman said being kicked all over the place at Oldham will do wonders for his development.
    Plenty of good young players have coped with L1 football. Defoe tore it up for Bournemouth, while Lallana played there for Southampton, and Hoolahan for Norwich, and none of them are big, physical players

    Players coming in in groups over Monday and Tuesday for analysis during which Slade will chat with them individually and in groups.

    Notice also that both Cousins and Fox have been on pre-preseason training fitness courses. Fox twitted a pic of himself moving a huge tyre.

    Great few days in the Lakes with @cassiuscamps and the boys @Brownhill10 + @sammcqueen123! Back to it on Monday!

    Jesus... Does Morgan Fox drive a Monster truck or something?

    Or was that his reaction on being told to report to Sparrows Lane for pre-season training?

    I've got a bit of a tyre myself that needs shifting.

    let's all hope that our players, old and new, borrowed or blue, put in as much effort through out the whole of the coming season

    Too bad that lifting a giant tire doesn't help with your poor defensive positioning

    You see thats where you just have tunnel vision.

    That picture is of Morgan Fox placing a tyre in the Left-Back position so there is an extra obstacle for attackers to deal with next season

    Yep. That's how City get away with it.

    Thought is was a sign of the young man's commitment and desire to do well that he took this on off his own back.

    Shame that people complain that players aren't committed or don't want it enough but when they show they are they just get more stick.

    Oh I'm impressed with what he's done... I'm just a sarcastic b*****d who takes the piss out of everything

    Looks like that boat load of rubber from Nigeria has turned up - only 32 years too late.

    I sort of agree but Morgan is after all a professional sportsman and athlete. He and any in his "job" shouldn't need poking with a sharp stick to improve or maintain their levels of fitness.

    Not popping at Fox. That goes for all of them.

    She is.

    They have a son who must be a young teenager now. On Chelsea's books and apparently very decent

    Oooo even more Rumour to bring you

    Jokingly I did respond to Tracey Leaburn's tweet by suggesting that she was dropping of Nicky Ajose, a comment she has since "liked"

    I've a new fwend!!

    Harriott is being used to raise money so I understand.

    What 50 quid
    That's at least more than we got for Morrison
    Keep a player who asked to go out on loan to get game play .. he was 4th choice, Tal Ben H and Bikey were superb and let's not forget the long unbeaten run at the start of any season , he played one game against Birmingham in that run and guess who made the mistake for there goal to make it 1-1 ..... An average centre half no near as good as Bauer or Jorge T or at the time TBH, Bikey or Gomaz
    Colin, I've stuck up for you recently but comments like that do not do yourself any favours.
    I make Colin right on all counts! TBH was for half a season one of the best CBs we've ever had, Bikey scared strikers into letting him take the ball with ease and Bauer was class until his injury. Tex was very solid but probably on a par with Morro.
    The only issue was we let him go on a free. Would have been nice to keep him as cover but he wanted to play and you can't blame him for that

    Nottingham Forest have named their new Manager (Philippe Montanier)

    Already Wikipedia have got a hold on it... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippe_Montanier

    He is famous for currently being the manager of the best team in the shithole that is Nottingham, and is also very well know for hating sheep and Derby.
