Probably the biggest headache for DF and the Board, is not so much who they want to bring into the club, but what to do with the majority of the existing players.
In my opinion, we only have 4 "Premiership" players in the squad, James, Rodon, Ampudu & Solomon (if he signed up). The rest are good Championship players but do not have the necessary skills to play in the top league, however they have got the team, hopefully, to the Premiership.
Do they deserve a crack at playing in the Premiership?, almost certainly. Could the sentiment land us in a heap of trouble? possibly, so what to do?.
You could give them until the transfer window in January and then see where we are and decide the next course of action, however if we are deep in the sh*t by then, no one will want to join and another doomsday scenario beckons.
Alternatively, you could put the majority of the squad up for sale and dig deep into the pockets and buy several Premiership class players, that will ensure we stay in the top league for the "holy" second season, therefore establishing ourselves as a true Premiership team.
This of course flies in the face of the PSR rules, but to be honest, I think we should just ignore that and press on regardless. The 49er's Enterprise I'm pretty sure, are packed with enough lawyers that would tie the FA up for years to come.
