Incredibly obvious but if the players continue to be paid erratically we will not attract new players and the ones here will not perform.

That’s not a certainty. Just make sure he is paid !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigash_swfc Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Like I've already mentioned. 400k doesn't cut it for us. Any contract Millwall offer won't be tempting due to the bonus incentives many are under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lincowl Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 We’re not in any position to refuse income when we haven’t even paid existing staff. £1m and he’ll be off, fair enough for average player from a L1 team with only one year on his contract.

Blatter Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 1 hour ago, Kew Owl said: 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. Appreciate your point but if £400k is correct would you sell for that? Seems clearly an opening gambit, testing the waters etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 This is yet another issue with Chansiri doing what he's done with wages, relegation, contracts etc Clubs can just come in and underbid and get our players Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gizowl Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 The most vile club in the EFL showing how classless they are, we shouldn't have even responded just totally ignore d it . 400k isn't an offer it's a p I ssss take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 We don’t sell, he spends his final season sulking, then leaves on a free……….DC’s way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chow Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Surely he can just walk away if he isn’t been paid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, to a certain extent, I agree. But if the roles were reversed, and Mandaric was still here, we’d be doing exactly the same thing - making a derisory offer knowing that we’re in the driving seat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 5 hours ago, Jack the Hat said: I don't understand where people get their assumptions from. From what I have read Josh Windass is settled and doesn't want to leave. The players Chansiri wants to keep are the ones he is paying so they can't leave through breach of contract. Chansiri has never sold unless he wanted to. This isn't trying to raise the price. Unless we get ridiculous offers we won't sell him or Bannan, but I keep getting told how they are leaving. I'd be surprised if either left TBH. Are you trying to say Chansiri is playing a blinder here and not paying all the over paid players, that we don't want to keep for next season so they tear up their contracts and leave. Knowing full well no one is taking them on a free or paying a fee for them due to the wages they are currently on and there lack of ability and/or fitness.
