Why would the CEO deride a current employee in public like that?
Perhaps it's the surprise and disappointment that he refused to fall on his sword.
I'll be amazed if he's still here in August

Where has this figure come from ?
Is it transfer fees, as I'm struggling to get to the figure.
If it's wages hen all of the big earners were not Slades signings - and most don't justify their salaries.
I'm not sure it was fair to use this to judge Slade
Manga £5m, but misses half the games and is inconsistent when he plays
Morrison £3m, decent, but prob not worth that much. Injured a fair bit this year too.
Le Fondre £2m ish - doesn't want to be here
Adeyemi £1m - loaned
Pilkington £1.5m - has proved his worth IMHO
Turner £750k injured
Doyle - £700k, yes this one was Slades signing. Seems strange he was loaned out as our strikers were so poor
Marshall £500k- worth 10x that, so makes up for some of the above
Whitts £250k - bargain ,
Velikonja £2m ish ? Less said the better
Kiss - £500k ? Again, not up to it and loaned out
Note, both of these were Jones signings
Can't think of any other significant payments made - maybe a million on the others in total. Perhaps I've got some figures wrong.
If Choo is talking about annual wage bill then I guess Slade can be blamed for a few... Ameobi being the biggest disaster, but does he really carry the can for Jones, Velikonja , Adeyemi, Dikcachoi , Fabio ( maybe this one yes - as underused), Gunner, Le Fondre, Macheda, Manga, Morrison, etc probably on £10-£12m between them all not being worth the wages mainly Ole gave them.
Still a big job required this summer in finding clubs for most of these.
I reckon that - and being Tans ears on the new signings - is what Slade's role will be.

Id say its our squads valuation.
Are you grange end 1927 on ****?
Just read the exact same thread on there.
Are you being selective to fit your own argument?
If you go back far enough to have Whitts on there why isn't Cornelius for example. And where are the rest of the team? We must be paying them something?
Possibly ..
Who would make that value up ?
I'd guess...
Marshall £5m
Manga £3m ( if we are lucky)
Ralls £2-£3m
Pilkington £1.5- £2m
No one £1.5- £2.5m ( by the way I forgot him off my previous list)
Morrison £2m maybe...
Doyle £700k
Whitts £1m ish maybe ?
A lot of the rest we would struggle to get a few for I would guess, or we would have already sold them.
It would be great to get money for Adeyemi, Le Fondre, Macheda, Dikgachoi, Fabio but I'm not confident
Who else would we get a few bob for ?
Moore maybe a few hundred grand, Gunnar...
A lot in the last year of their contract as well
Its more Tan bollox spouted by his boy child who knows nothing about the game. This is the guy who personally oversaw the recruitment of Guerra,iddriss,Zohore,ameobi and Lawrence and is part of the gang of three recruitment committee reporting to Tan. He is a numpty who will keep doing Tans bidding and we will go knowhere
Any linky to this?
I would imagine Kenwyne is lumped in there too.
What you are ommitting is the loss made on the player. You intimate a possible profit on Whittingham but make no mention of a loss on others. And you conveniently omit half the full squad from your calculations.
If you include 1 person who was pre-slade then shirley you should include them all?
