theowlsman Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Other than Shaw, they can all leave. Shaw is at the beginning of his career and will get better, the others are on the decline or won’t get any better. Would be nice to see us prepared to take the difficult decisions for the benefit of the club long term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam reach has never fulfilled his potential or repaid his fee or wages. We seem to over rate our players, Tom lees would never equal his contract at Wednesday. You can't fault Barry Bannans commitment or his quality and he would be an asset to any championship club but he's over 30 and, again, would not get a contract like he has here. Think bannan and Reach could both get 15k which isnt far off what theyre on now. Im presuming by the Summer finances may have picked up a bit regarding crowds and covid etc. Lees would be mad to turn down anyone who offered him even half of what hes on here.

Ok so this is a "look at me" kind of post but i'm gutted twice, firstly that he intends to leave and secondly I won't be able to take any credit for saying it first. And this is also a big concern, that we are only just at the half way stage of the season and player's already know and are talking about not being here next season. In just a few short years our owner has taken us from being one of the most attractive clubs to sign for at this level to complete bottom feeders. Absolute basket case of a club.

If I was a gambling man, I'd say Tom Lees Although, the non celebration of his goal against Blackburn by Reach spoke volumes I don't think either will be here next season Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

Chansiri is on it like a car bonnet! Same day he is saying dealing with agents is hard work and they always mess the club around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shezzas left peg Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I'd keep Shaw as he's come in and seems to be heading in the right direction, improving settling into the side and is young enough to get better. The rest for me can go. We need a refresh and for me that needs to include bazza, Lees and reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beswetherick Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Keep Shaw, Palmer, Bannan and Reach. They’ll cost more to replace than they will to renew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgyowl Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 We've really got to get Shaw nailed down I'd be gutted to lose him, players like him are our future, we'll never improve signing old has beens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brommers Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 23 hours ago, trev said: Correct. We need to cut our cloth accordingly for once. Bannan, Reach and Lees are very highly paid for this league. Out of all the clubs without parachute money we probably pay the most and these 3 are very high. Also Westwood of course. We cannot afford to pay them that amount anymore so just like Fletcher they will leave. We need to be more savvy and to actually scout out hidden gems or foreign players. Lots of other teams can build good squads without paying crazy money in wages. We have found a few like Iorfa, Borner and Windass. So it can be done. Doesn't mean they will leave. Who's going to pay them the sort of money they are on? Nobody. Clubs have to be careful at long last with contracts. Offer contracts with appropriate relegation clauses too.

I'm sure if they want to leave they will get another club but unlikely to be one challenging for promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was here in the Milan days so nothing to suggest he's s high earner compared to others. I'd only keep Bannan and Shaw out of that lot , maybe offer odabajo 1 year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
