Looks like my £20 is safe then.MattF said:A CB just become number one priority I suspect0 -
With the Wage Cap vote, I wonder how the actual 'For' and 'Against' vote counted?
You can imagine ourselves, Sunderland, Ipswich, Portsmouth, Peterboro and similar voting against - but anyone know what the actual count was?

I'd offload Phillips for next to nothing to be honest, just taking up wages now2

I agree. With TS taking over, Bonne sold and the salary cap, you have to say we shouldn't be desperate for the money anyway. The extra 2k ish a week could be huge and should enable us to get one more decent player in, probably the CB.Pelling1993 said:I'd offload Phillips for next to nothing to be honest, just taking up wages now0 -

I still believe Bowyer's looking for 3 loans and 1 permanent, the CB.

Redrobo said:January will be a quiet window for us. ☹️
I see the Jan window as potentially being better personally.
it's hard this window in tempting away the best of league one, top players from clubs with similar aims won't see a move with the wage cap as worthwhile financially or for family reasons, but say for example we're sat in 4th with a good gap below and a few points from above, then the best of those "also ran" clubs (Donny, the dons etc) might see our position and think they've got a much much better chance of getting to the champ.
We're 4th, Pompey are 8th cheeky bid for a player we might fancy etc.0 -
That's probably the way to go but somebody has got to want him and he's got to be prepared to take whatever wages that the somebody is offering him. Otherwise, we're stuck with him (which might come in handy if Amos gets injured).Pelling1993 said:I'd offload Phillips for next to nothing to be honest, just taking up wages now0 -
An intresting scenario would be a swap loan deal involving Phillips.
We loan him to a championship team but pay 100% of his wages. They loan us a center half and pay 100% of their wages. Maybe even pay a loan fee.
We could then, potentially, have a player we need on 10k a week. Yes we would loose any potential transfer fee but it would give us much more head room on wages. We couldn't sell Philips and buy a center half of that quality could we?27 -
I think that's a really good shout to be honest. I think the problem with Phillips is who is going to want him. Begovic didn't leave Bournemouth so doubt they'll be interested.Cafc43v3r said:An intresting scenario would be a swap loan deal involving Phillips.

I'd even go further and let the team have Phillips on a free, doesn't make any difference to us if he's going to go for free next summer anyway, on the condition they loan us a player or two on the cheap.1 -
With Butland to Liverpool being discussed. Would Stoke be interested in Dillon to compete with Adam Davies?cafcfan1990 said:

All that time Charlton have spent training him etc over the years... you should want a return after putting the time and effort into him.1 -
I watch all the NI games and surprised Championship clubs missed Jones, same with Gavin Whyte at first but he's now at Cardiff via Oxford - scored a cracker at The Valley for the U's.Weegie Addick said:We've got plenty of Welsh players but maybe we should look at a pal or two for Washington from the NI squad? Jordan Jones and Stuart Dallas are useful and not sure they are getting much club football. The old salary cap would probably scupper us again, though.1 -
And haven't we read that while Phillips wants to play Championship football, he's not content to be a back up?cafcfan1990 said:

If he's that desperate to play number 1, he should've first sorted his situation here.

Of course I don't disagree. But we now find ourself in a position where Phillips could be sat in our reserves all season and then leave for free next summer, or possibly for a very small fee in January (which would cost us in unnecessary wages until then anyway). Or we could give Phillips to a club on a free on the condition they loan us say 2 players who are on a combined 15k. It's a way round the wage cap and although appears we got nothing for Phillips, that's not quite true.king addick said:cafcfan1990 said:

Problem is Philips is an existing deal so his wages are calculated at the average of £2k PW even though they are probably higher. Same with Pearce, Williams, etc.Cafc43v3r said:An intresting scenario would be a swap loan deal involving Phillips.

If you bring a "new" player in on loan or permanant then their full £10k or whatever is used when calculating the salary cap.
BTW the cap isn't ageist either. You can pay anyone of any age as much as you like. You just have to stay under £2.5m overall.1 -
Is that definitely true, I thought it was only what we paid? So if we got a player on loan from say Stoke who is on 10k a week but they pay his wages he counts as 10k for our cap?Henry Irving said:

I don't believe so ..... only the amount we actually contribute to his wages plus other agreed expenditure. In in addition, that could also include paying for his accomodation costs, certain travel expenses, plus any ancillary costs that the cap specifies.cafcfan1990 said:

Fully agree he needs to go especially if he wont play. Just feel we should command a fee if we can even if its cut price.cafcfan1990 said:

I think there will be next to 0 movement in L1 in January. Every club will already be at the cap and not able to sign anyone else.CL_Phantom said:Redrobo said:January will be a quiet window for us. ☹️

That’s my problem with it, it’s not really a “cap”, more of a required level of spending.1 -
Just had a thought ...... with the wage cap limit reportedly close, any whisper of potential moves for any of our existing squad?
There may be clubs interested in our fringe players or those who may not get much playing time as the squad gets rebuilt.
Would free up a little more wages margin under the wage cap.
Any of those rumours?

Yes, if Stoke paid all his wages then it wouldn't impact on our £2.5m ceiling as I understand it.cafcfan1990 said:

Not really as that would be £2.6m so that one player would bust your limit.Leeds_Addick said:

But you can pay one player as much as you like within the cap.
Additionally, if they were on £50k pw but signed last season then it would only count as £2k pw0
