Seeing Gerry Daly and David Rennie mentioned surprised me a little. In my head, I've told myself that they both made our midfields tick in Saunders' and Cooper's promotion seasons, but maybe I've misremembered or didn't see enough of them.

This report is astonishing, but equally unsurprising at the same time. Sadly, I don't think it will lead to any kind of realistic correction to the game's finances.

Even clubs in the Championship (from a business point of view) are very much looking forward to the end of June when lots of players contracts end
Blues are one such club - isn't Stockdale off the wage bill in July?
