WalthamOwl Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 400k in instalments. Cheeky sods. Unfortunately with the financial position we are in I think teams will see our players as cheap easy targets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
room0035 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Why sell now when he can leave for free next season after sitting in the stands for a whole season. We never learn to sell when players stock is high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PEARSON Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 This is an exact example of why we’re such a badly run club. Josh Windass not for sale at any price. Why do think we’re above selling players. We blatantly need to raise funds 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacré bleu Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Maybe they think it will hit sales of season tickets if he's allowed to leave. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatter Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 £400,000 is derisory, but if the price is high enough Chansiri will sell, he has little option. Saying no, not for sale is another way of seeing how far Millwall and other interested parties will go. Pretty sure if someone came in with a couple of million the answer would be very different.

That’s a reasonable approach to take, but it runs the risk of Millwall and other interested parties just deciding to walk away - then, basically, we’re the losers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never learn to sell when players stock is high. If it's true about the £400k I wouldn't say his stock is high. Also thought we had the option to extend for a year ?

That said he's not on a massive wage by any means, so I think the value is there in keeping him as he'd be very difficult to replace, both in terms of skill and costs associated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I wasn't aware that we had the option to extend his contract for another year following this one. That changes things slightly for me, as our need to sell becomes less urgent. Windass is clearly one of our best players and would be a real asset in League One. If his heart's in it and the interest from the Championship doesn't affect him, then I'd love for him to be a Wednesday player at the close of the transfer window. Clearly that's a big 'if', however. If there's any sense that he wants a move, then we simply have to sell at the highest price we're able to generate. Assuming he's being paid, of course. The fact that this is the elephant in the room in any of these conversations is ridiculous, but we must acknowledge it's there. I wouldn't put it past Chansiri to reject decent offers for a player he's not paying, only to see them cancel their contract and walk away for nothing. Let's just hope that doesn't come to pass, eh? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 This is the scenario I was talking about that could happen Windass could end up trapped here now with wage issues and all the other crap He will be gutted right now - no doubt Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@owlstalk Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Imagine this (and obvs this probs might not happen) We get an offer for him We turn it down The bidding clubs go elsewhere Josh Windass is stuck here We don't pay him We end up with a player on the books who is massively so cheesed off he stops scoring goals Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's who Nixon says the players would be daft to hand notice in as won't get more money elsewhere They might actually get paid elsewhere tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shetland Owl Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Good news think he can get 20 goals this coming season, has said he wanted to stay. If we sell all our good players we will never get out of that division. Although think an offer of £3m or more might be what we are looking for, Millwall may have only offered £500,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re only losers if you think that £400k is really acceptable. It comes down to what you would do with the money. Can better value be bought for the same sum plus wages?
