Jay Fulton.

If we can keep Kyle Naughton as we did, I'm sure we could keep Jay Fulton.

Can we sell Bennett?

If the story about his wages are true (I read £23k per week) then we absolutely have to try and move him on. I don't predict a long list of takers though.

I don't know where you heard that, but that's way out of whack with reality I'd say.

No idea where I read it, it was probably on a football forum from one of the ITK's.

They rarely are ITK. I doubt anyone is on that. I'd worry if they were.

Yep, agreed on that.

I saw it as well, listed all our players. Was also a link to all the other clubs players wages as well.

There was a website someone posted where apparently they knew what players were earning.
I’m sure it said Bennett was on £20k a week,I questioned at the time how this website would be privy to these figures.

I'd reckon that's top whack at best. No way Fulton is our top earner IMO.

The site that references Bennett's wages has Fulton at just over £8k.

All of these sites can largely be taken with a pinch of salt

There you go,thanks Pip.

Taken with a pinch of salt indeed.
However IF true then I can see us getting rid of Bennett in the summer, he is obviously out of favour with RM and isn't particularly suited to his style of play.

That site lists our annual player salary at just south of £12m a year.
I wonder what our income with gates and broadcast revenues comes in at.

Pinch of salt or not, he's vastly overpaid and will be hard to shift if he decides to sit on his contract

Hmmm 3 year deal signed in 2020. He would be in last season of his contract come the summer.

Absolutely, another season of 23k a week, any takers?

Fulton has two years left on his contract. He won't be going anywhere unless someone matches his wages, or we contribute.

With Smith out of contract, it seems a no-brainer to me.

Smith is out of contract in the summer? There we are then, no-brainer indeed.

Seems like Martin loves the bones of Smith though, he put him on yesterday and we were virtually down to 10 men he did nothing absolutely useless, he has to go.

Yesterday was about locking things down in the final fifteen mins so I don’t really have an issue with this, plus other options off the bench were non existent.
