If Wilson and Baccus break our wage cap, this lad surely will. Great player ruined by a bad back injury but still attracting interest and currently in talks with Ipswich. Quote
Farnywhite Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 I think one of the problems is the statement coming from the club and evatt earlier in the summer stuff like Clubs throwing players at us due to the success of Bradley and Trafford and then we don’t get anyone then we’re looking at players for fees from now on and waiting on the domino’s to fall one statement from him players from top end championship clubs and player at premier league club . May be it was mendes he was taliking about but the guy as only played at league one level so that was misleading then even stuff like the toughsheet sponsorship we were told the guy was also paying for a new pitch will that happen on top of that the bonds money . if we’re there or there abouts then it won’t matter but if we slip there is going to be criticism Quote

And his value can only reduce in January when he's half a season from the end of his contract. Quote

Mj got himself a 3 year deal at mk who are currently second in L2 So probably a good move all round Had a look to see how Bakayoko was getting on at FGR 0 goals in 19 games and now he's on loan at Dundee in the SPL, started yesterday, 0 goals in 4 games Not sure if that last move is a step up or step down Quote

Wanderlust Posted September 4, 2023 Posted September 4, 2023 Spurious link to transfer news but there's an interesting article in the Portsmouth News comparing the current (post window) squad values in League 1. Apparently there are 7 teams with a squad valued higher than ours... Quote

Transfermarkt or whoever is irrelevant as they're actually worth what someone will pay for them in the real world. But if all the valuations are taken from the same source such as Transfermarkt - or based on fees historically paid then at least it's a like for like comparison - even if that's a like for like crap valuation comparison. Newspapers have to fill their column inches with something as Iles demonstrates week in week out. Thing that interested me is that a lot of clubs reckon we're loaded so being 8th in this League 1 squad valuation may change a few minds about us. Quote
Moderators Casino Posted September 4, 2023 Moderators Posted September 4, 2023 what has loaded got to do with squad valuation? Quote
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 4, 2023 Site Supporter Posted September 4, 2023 It would be pretty unusual to find a minted owner with a low value squad. Quote

It's a load of bollocks though At the end of the day, a player is only worth what someone will pay Not some bloke behind a keyboard You clicked on it so you'll probably get a load of messages comparing away attendances, home ones and how many goals each team have scored on a Tuesday night Quote
