Dutch McLovin Posted August 9, 2021 Author Share Posted August 9, 2021 Let’s be honest if we get any amount of money in for Liam Palmer then we have to accept. He’s not our first choice, limited in so many areas, we have financial problems and only had a year left on his contract…. I’ll be honest id have released him at the end of his contract twice before this period and would be doing again at the end of this season. If forest offer anything for it I’m taking it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneeyedmilkman Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Putting the shoe on the other foot, and knowing who we've signed on loan and on frees this summer, if we now signed a Liam Palmer for 200-300k I'd be questioning that decision massively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve sold no where near enough players in his ownership. We need to generate revenue somehow. Palmer is far from indispensable, approaching 30 and in the last year of his contact. If we can get somewhere in the region of £750k I’d be happy to see Wednesday do the sensible thing and sell as appose to extending his contract. It should be down simply to what benefits the team the most. If keeping him is best we keep him, otherwise he should be sold, but it should be DM's decision not someone who is Clueless about both football and business. Too many on here want to see a good player sold just for the sake of selling someone, anyone! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it's not a case of 'we must keep him'. Letting him go for nothing would be my issue. Absolute folly. I've said earlier, in the ballpark that you've mentioned, I could see the sense in selling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When frankly their young right back looked just as good. If I was a forest fan and the club pays more than £500k for Palmer i would be a little disappointed. Though he is a fantastic servant to our football club, there’s no denying he’s not irreplaceable in our long term plan.

I don’t think anyone has said that. Some people have said to get the right price, others, like me, have said if we sell him then we need at least one more fullback.

FlyingOwl Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Well Hutchinson has come out and said he gets unfair stick, is due a testimonial, is the hardest working player at the club & would be disappointed if he left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to think about our finances and have to have some forward planning. It was the best thing for the team keeping Forestieri et al but it wasn’t the best for Wednesday as we’ve ended up with transfer embargos, points deductions and not owning our own stadium. Selling a player for money would indicate that Chansiri has realised he has to raise funds somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once his toys went out of the pram he should have been sold pronto. He was never the same after that and his value plummeted. What made no sense was not cashing in him at the time when we could have had north of 10 million for him. As for Palmer, we'll get 500k if lucky, which we probably can't spend anyway and then have to find a replacement. Also makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All those managers who've played him, offered or recommended contract extensions,pfft,wtf do they know eh. The player who he supposedly replaced has had to be re-signed...that says it all. He was never first choice in our better teams, Buxton and Hunt were. It's no coincidence he's been first choice whilst we have declined recently. Moore has worked him out clearly if he's willing to offload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 What I will say to all these people who don't seem to rate Palmer, is if he is that bad, why are a championship club after him.? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched him for over 10 years, he's cost us numerous goals through poor defending. Nothing will change my mind. I get frustrated that our coaches/managers over the last 10 years have not coached out of him some of his bad habits like ball watching and playing offside rather than tracking runners. The incident at West Brom a few years ago, this is what I see all too often. 11:18 onwards. Look at Westoods reaction to him. He still does this now and it's never been removed from his game.

You don't rate him, fair enough. Moore however rates him enough to pick him. I wouldn't be too unhappy if he moved on so long as we get the £500k fee (minimum) that a player of his experience and quality warrants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
