robowl4life Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Thing is, we probably used to be a bit of a push over in the past regarding transfer fees etc when we’ve been in a financial mess. However, we aren’t that club any more, we don’t need to sell. You want one of our players, give us a proper f.ucking offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Uniform Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Does anybody know when his contract ends? It says this season some places. But was sure he signed a 4 year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Cheeky offer or not, this shows Norwich are still interested. I reckon he'll move there on deadline day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HillsboroughOwlNI Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 30+ goals this season. We have a squad that suits him now, with pace down both sides, KL bombing through the middle, and SF providing a hatful of knockdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devils advocate ......... He’s arguably not in the first 16 names you’d want in the squad if fit currently We won’t be anywhere near promotion realistically Isn’t it best to get him off the wage bill??

Leaping Lannys Perm Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Do they not understand how football finance works? No matter what size his wage is, it is dwarfed by the amortisation of his transfer fee. As far as I know, there is still two years left on that. If he had one year left then it may make sense. One year of said amortisation would fall due in the season anyway so would make no difference to the accounts. Under those circumstances getting him off the wage bill would make some sense and save some money. But the moment he goes the full amount falls into one season of accounts. For it to be worth letting him go for good, and then no longer be in our assets, the transfer fee has to be at least equal to the extra amount of amortisation that would fall due. So perhaps a cheeky £2m bid would make sense, assuming he has 2 years left and £4m left on his fee. That would 'balance out' the money owed (since we are committed to £2m this season anyway) and would save money on wages. In all seriousness, agreeing a two year loan deal for no fee but full wages would actually make more sense than letting him go for free. We'd still see the wage savings but wouldn't cause his remaining fee to instantly come due. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
