Popular Post Tea Baggins Posted May 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2022 Sell, sell, sell. 29 next, resale value plummeting, injury prone. we could get 3 solid players for that combined cost. We can’t make the same mistakes as before, we have to learn to sell at the right time. 73 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Agree, but i'd deffo go in with a counter offer and see how far they'll go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0114 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Pointed this out in another thread but the key point for me is the quote from the Talleres President saying they have an agreement with Windass and now just be appearing to agree on a fee.

prowl Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 First rule of business...never accept the first offer. Everyone puts a low offer in first to test the water, everyone always asks more for an item than their minimum selling price. If they offer £1m and we say we want £2m then we start negotiating. We will meet somewhere between those figures or their maximum will be lower than our minimum asking price and we both decide a deal isn't possible. Psycholocically if you are buying a £200k house and you offer £190k and it gets accepted you will wonder if you could have got it for £180k, it leaves that little niggle in your mind that you might have over paid. I accept we might sell but there's more money to be had. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinnishOwl Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 (edited) Year and a half? Does his contract end on a New Year's Eve? Off he goes, looks like he wants away if he's ready to jump to a very different place. Edited May 28, 2022 by FinnishOwl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Whatever you think about the player and the deal it’s a very strange way to do business. Tin pot. This £1m might be payable in 45 installments and linked to Windass winning Eurovision for all we know. Something just doesn’t seem right. 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Take the money and give half each to them 2 players from rovrum smith and the centre half to sign for us and we'd have a good deal ..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Expect some negotiation, but the principle intent should be to sell and reinvest in the squad. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never go in with your best offer first & if the £1m is true, we might stretch another 3 or 4 hundred grand out of them. i'd hope anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
