    Oh and don't get me started on that pathetic radio Sheffield presenter, Rob, "it's all about me" Staton. He won't acknowledge or let anyone comment on wednesday overspending!

    More I read about this story tells me Wednesday won't be alone in this quagmire of a problem, Who will be next? Not enough money in the game to service all the staff and players on hyped up wages.

    This sale and that of Musaba to a Turkish club and young Cadamarteri to Man City only covers their outstanding wages. They still owe HMRC around £2 million and in a couple of weeks will be back in the same position regarding player and staff wages.

    And of their saleable assets they only have 17 registered 1st team squad players.

    I knew they'd be in hot water when they bought promotion. Their youngest player was about 32 that season, and all on huge wages. No saleable assets at all. Then came the manager sacking and paying off Munoz wouldn't have been cheap

    Yes, sorry for them. They are just helpless passengers on a bus going down a mountainside out of control and the driver has jumped out with the monk on. Like a lot of fans these days, powerless.

    Went on owlstalk the other day to see what the vibe was on there and saw multiple threads trying to come up with ways for a prospective new owner to get around the transfer embargo. Including third party player ownership and buying another club to loan players through Watford style.

    They never learn do they.
