And now we don't have Barnes or Crofts, the only 2 who actually scored for us over that period.

Exactly my point! At the time we had alternative goal scorers. If Ulloa gets unfortunate again, do you really think we went score goals again?

Amazing player, best striker since Zamora by a country mile.

Will be very surprised if he's still here next season.

I won't be. He's under contract and our best asset. I don't think the club will bother with the hustle of getting a replacement, especially with FFP coming into play.

They won't have a choice when he hands in a transfer request in July.

Anyway, what's the club record for goals in consecutive games? About 8 by Zamora?

But you could equally argue that if the offer is right we might sell him because of FFP.

It's all very well selling our best players and making a profit to offset our loses to meet FFP and make Barber look like a saint and he picks up his bonus but by doing that will incense the fans and season tickets will drop because all the new customers don't want to watch us fighting mid table or relegation because that will happen if we sell our best players and if season tickets start to dwindle then we'll have to sell our not so good players that's if any club is interested.

Didn't mean that was what I thought the club should do, rather that I wouldn't put it past them to do so.

If you want to be a soldier act like one....and try not to panic FFS !

Used to be one and and not panicking at all. The club should panic if they can't retain our best players in the summer as people will get disillusioned and refuse to renew their season tickets and that could have serious implications in future.

Do you seriously think that TB is going to invest in excess of 100 million pounds and ongoing, to be so dumb as to let quality players leave without replacing them, would you?
Incidently I also served both as a Bootneck and later as advisor to the MoD.
