Wouldn't surprise me. It's so unfair though, one shit player like N'Zogbia probably earns the same as 100 admin staff.

Glad to see you've finally joined me in opposition to capitalism.

Could the club have a reputation (among certain types of players) as a place where you can just turn up, sign a big contract, then do fuck-all and rake in the money?

And I bet she will be getting her P45

The more I read about Graham Taylor the more I'm convinced he is the right man to be on the board.  His football might be outdated but we need a person with the vision to create the right environment for the players to flourish.

I'm shocked we still only have PLO at the club.

Lets hope Paddy Reilly and Henrik whatever-his-name-is are two of them, and my sincerest best wishes to the real casualties of all this.

I hope there are no job losses in the ticket office...everyone in there are fantastic and are a credit to the club.

You would think any businessman would realise that if we are going to be in the Championship next season - we will have more games - and hopefully if we start winning more often we might get bigger crowds! So we might need more staff in the ticket office not less.

Also hope the players realise that the next time they pull out of a 50-50 ball or don't bust a gut to get in the box or miss a sitter time after time or Guzan doing his Dracula impersonation (don't like crosses) that the end product besides relegation is normal everyday hard working people losing there jobs

This is a bit of a mystery to me. The staff wages are paid by the PL for 1 season  as part of the relegated clubs deal.

Can't see Lorna being ditched...we'll still be signing foreign players next season as the likes of Boro and Hull have done as buying players in the premier league will still be pricey.

A sad reality of relegation I'm afraid.

First out the door should be the people responsible for this shambles, turning a proud club into what we are this season.

Tom Fox, and your 'shortlist of one', I am 'flipping the coin' at you for not backing our new manager.

Scandalous that people earning so little in comparative terms are the ones to suffer for all their incompetent decisions.

I'm hoping the meeting is to tell them everyone is OK for a year - didn't realise the PL paid the wages?
Probably find out Monday when I see said friend...
