kevin nolan stalling.

im sick of this stalling lark.

seems there are a few people not renewing contracts or deciding what they're doing lately, doesn't look good

Something going on and we'll probably never know the truth

this could be there way of getting the older players off the books and wages down

no need to fret lads and lasses....... its the end of the season and certain players are negotiating contracts and contract extensions...

the problem we have....but it aint just us....is........players will be looking at each others deals and wanting something in line with them and maybe theyre just taking a step back as a bluff...

it dont mean they dont love the club or not want to play for it in my opinion.... just a simple , if im worth it.....cough up a few bob extra...


now we all know mike ashley runs a tight ship....and to be fair i think hes doing it right even though to many its as though hes penny pinching....which in a way he is....but not in how many think...


i think his stance is simple......pay the players a decent wage, a fair wage and if they accept it then they want to play for the club for the right reasons...

give into a players demands that are way over the threshold of the clubs ceiling, then i think its a stand off type of thing, with no one giving an inch at first..


in nolans case, he will probably be wanting to end his career here and will want a deal to match it....i.e a contract long enough to see him through ..


i could be talking a complete load of tosh here...but its just how i interpret whats going on , looking from the oputside in.
