The message it would send out is this is what happens when a club drops 2 divisions in 2 seasons & income drops by 98%. If the woman’s team costs the club financially it has to go otherwise there may be no club at all.I think we need to be doing everything we can to keep that women’s team, even at a lower level. It’s important and once it’s gone it will be incredibly different to bring back. What kind of message would it send to young women and girls if we basically say ‘sorry, I know your team has been far more successful than the men’s side in recent years but we’re going to scrap that to benefit the men’s team’.
A perfectly reasonable question he’s probably heard it mentioned a few times and wonders the significance of it.
Category 1 acamedy is the highest accolade for an acamedy so in theory will attract the best young talentWhy would we need a cat 1 academy, whatever that is?
The whole article was about trying to get people to look past the obvious main cost of players and get people to realise that the whole club, every single aspect of it, seems to be costing too much money to run.That might be right however getting rid of a groundsman on 18k is the tip of the iceberg

Exactly I fear Donald will do his best to move these type players on, but he has no experience dealing with these spoilt millionaires
I get that Marra but in reality it's the high end earners who will really make a difference and not some part-time low level staffThe whole article was about trying to get people to look past the obvious main cost of players and get people to realise that the whole club, every single aspect of it, seems to be costing too much money to run.
The main goal is getting the high contract players off the books. No one needs to remind anyone that we can't afford 40k a week salaries. The real fundamentals are that we are running the entire club as if we still have 100m TV money when we don't, we have a million or so from the league when the parachute payments run out and so we need to change the club to suit that sort of income.
There will be cut backs all over the place
I’m going there tomorrow if I can be of any helpThere just needs a willingness on both sides to reach a compromise. Just taking a tough stance could see us lumbered with them for another season but they and their agents need to be flexible also...i mean Ndong saying he doesn’t want to go to Lyon is f***ing ludicrous....he should be on the first flight out there talking to such a prestigious club.
Well put unfortunately I can only give you one likeThe whole article was about trying to get people to look past the obvious main cost of players and get people to realise that the whole club, every single aspect of it, seems to be costing too much money to run.

It’s totally pointless other than as a source of good PR with ‘some’ people. At the moment we can’t afford £600k for that. Bin

He's clearly not though. He's telling us we're massively inefficient before we even start thinking about paying the players. People need to get that through their heads.One non contributing person a massive part of that and needs to be dealt with
It means we can actually take players from other academies which don't have that status, apparently.Category 1 acamedy is the highest accolade for an acamedy so in theory will attract the best young talent
Driving the gravy train mate, he had lots of passangers.Bain should be hung from a high building by his shoelaces and made to explain what he was actually doing.....
No it isn't. That's the harsh reality of it.I think we need to be doing everything we can to keep that women’s team, even at a lower level.

Players wages are the biggest problem at the club However certain high earning players under contract are not going to walk away...
Why would we need a cat 1 academy, whatever that is?
