Any insight in the delay in publishing the retained list?
It makes it look like at least one out of contract player’s fate is undecided.

Us and West Brom are the only clubs in all 4 Divisions who have yet to show their retained list.
Probably Joe Ralls.Quote:

If it is a positive outcome and let's hope so, then £15m would be written back from the balance sheet. This would vastly improve the Profit and Sustainability position but I imagine would not improve the availability of funds. No doubt Keith could confirm this.

Still no decision from the Michael Isaacs case yet either.
The provision is £20m.Quote:

It puts things into perspective. This was a young man’s life and it’s become an ugly business.
I’m guessing that the transfer fee would be £15m which, if successful, would be written back. I assume the balance of the provision is for legal costs which we have probably been incurring at a rate of knots.Quote:

Hopefully Keith to the rescue.
It means there is an accrual in the accounts ( liability on the balance sheet) but it doesn’t mean we have the cash to pay it.Quote:

The reports say he is on a £1.2m pa salary with a year left on his Bristol City contract - and that he only played 204 minutes in the Championship last season before being bombed out by Nigel Pearson. So expensive (there might also have been a transfer fee involved unless Bristol City just want to get rid), stale and unwanted.
I'm not disappointed either.
I guess they wanted a fee (I doubt, they'd probably rather save the 1.2m), or he wanted somewhere around the same 1.2m in wages and we said no/the clubs couldn't agree to a compromise.Quote:

23k a week give or take so half that could technically be in our range..Quote:
