Again, I agree. But its why I like to shout the odds on here, just in the hope that the club look and get the message that some of us, who were around in the 70's and 80's, dont think its OK to be shite again.
I know people on here dont agree with me, but I do believe, that a few posters on here are positively revelling in our mediocrity. It makes them feel superior, as they can tell every one that its still better than it was under Vince Barker.
See i wasnt supporting Pools (or watching them) till 1989/1990 so have seen about eight good seasons, but I still can't fathom why KH &Co have allowed us to be dragged down with the shite, it really does puzzle me why they cant bite the bullet and pay the deadwood off
When exactly would you like the deadwood to be paid off? And how can this be done without damaging the financial stability of the club?
Most players have at least another 30 weeks on their contracts and are therefore entitled to 30 weeks wages so very few if any would accept any less than that and who could blame them.?
For Example - If you want rid of 5 players at this stage (most people would want rid of more) and the 5 players earn 1k per week (most HUFC players earn more than that allegedlly) thats 150k plus you are paying probably in a lump some for the privilage of having a squad with 5 less players in it It really makes no sense as you would also have to fork out for replacements, the sensible thing to do was not to offer fringe players extended terms at the start of the season but its happened so we are stuck....
Short term there's probably not a huge amount of manovering that IOR or Danny Wilson can do presently however I believe that there are a lot of players contracts up in the summer so its possibly a case of making do until then. It sounds ok in theory or on Champ Manager to pay a few people off but in practice it is not a viable option........
