Pickle Rick Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 So are we likely to also add Nicky Ajose, Kyle Lafferty and Dack in the next few days? Or at least one of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Got home from work on Monday and on SSN; "Breaking News; Peterborough's Connor Washington is having a medical at Anfield ahead of a three million pound transfer". Woke up this morning to hear on the local radio; "Connor Washington is having a medical at Loftus Road ahead of a £2.5 million pound move. With add ons, this could rise to six million". Hmm; how much will PUFC get for the player? They signed him from Newport who inserted sell on clauses, so they'll get some of the fee. The player didn't ask for the transfer, so he gets 10% of the fee. Barry Fry has it in his contract that he gets 10% of the fee for every player P'boro' sell. Presumably the Agent gets a chink as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderbeans Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Someone please tell me how Peterborough get so much money for their players?! We get bugger all. Lita, Maynard, baldock, et al. Nothing in the region of what they have made yet those players have scored lots of goals for us. Is it that we are stubborn on contracts? It baffles me how we don't make more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busterrimes Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Peterborough when they spot a player sign them to 3 or 4 year contracts. The moment that contract runs down to just one year left the player is transfer listed so that they get the best deal that they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It baffles me how we don't make more I said this last night, they have just got £2.5m from QPR for someone who has scored as many goals in League One as Agard did. A lot of players who leave them are unsuccessful elsewhere but there seems to be this belief in football that they are foolproof in the market.

BobBobSuperBob Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 2 minutes ago, cynic said: Nothing hurts more than the truth sometimes. There is no getting away from the fact that we are in danger of going back into League One and, because of it, we can't compete with other established championship clubs when it comes to getting good quality players. The stadium, potential, etc etc has absolutely no bearing on players making a decision - why the hell would a decent quality championship standard player go to a club without a manager and in danger of relegation ? Desperate ? Daft ? Greedy ? We may get lucky I suppose. When you get a kid with just 20 odd league games behind him turning us down for a basket case of a club which can't even pay their employees and when you get a third division player at a small club saying "no thanks", then the writings on the wall.

Kid in the Riot Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 1 hour ago, billywedlock said: I really don't understand how we get to making (public) transfer bids to then be turned down by the player. I really have never heard of another club getting their targets so wrong. I know you cannot speak to the player, but it does not take much to find out if there is an interest or not from the player. It is getting silly now, surely these things can be handled better, as it gives the impression no-one wants to join us. The Dack bid takes the biscuit so to speak. You won't get Man Utd bidding for Messi if when the bid is accepted, the player says not interested. They bid because they know the player is interested. I think the summer of 2014 when we plucked the best players from L1 without any rumours or speculation leading up to the transfers must have all been a dream.

hortonred Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 One of the posters on here has been saying all year that we should have signed Dack. Good on you mate. It just a shame that the powers that be never read the forum. And a pity Cotterill forgot there are good players in the lower leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
