For all those people who think it's all about Falmer and that CCC status doesn't matter:
Q - How have we funded the application and Public Enquiry?
A - Selling Zamora, Virgo, Harding, Cullip, Currie, i.e. £4m-odd in fees.
You get decent money if players perform in the CCC, you get buttons if they perform well outside of it. Of that lot, only Bobby would have commanded any decent fee in League 1.
In all likelihood, Hinsh, Kazim-Richards and Hammond could all go in the next couple of years if they perform, and those proceeds could be crucial.
We will be a selling club for the next few years, which is why we need to bring youngsters through. The likes of Dodd are all very well, but not Dodd AND Ashby.
