Is Marriott worth near enough the same as Bobby? I think not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryans Left Peg Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Get your point but unfortunately sometimes you have to pay an inflated price to ensure you get the man you want & sometimes you have to accept a lower price to ensure you get some sort of fee from a player with just a year remaining on his contract, who could walk for nothing. There's more factors involved than just simply 'who's better/worth more.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NcnsBcfc Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Just looking at their season ticket prices. A lot lower than ours; even with the £70 reduction on last season's prices. Still got mine in dolman with the eldest child though of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine if Reid gets done this week for £10m+ then we will take Marriott for the £6.5. I reckon terms are agreed with the player and we're just waiting on cash to be freed up as a result of the Reid deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the only source there is a 7 million bid at all is from sky sports, and i dont see that as an alternative the main bcfc website either?

I may get reprimanded for this but thought the initial offer for £7m for a player with 1 very good season under his belt and a year left on the contract was quite good. Im sure the value will be around the 8.5m mark which isnt bad business. I would of course rather give the lad a pay rise and a 4 year contract and ask he stay for 1 more season.

He's not back from Spain for another 10 days, from what I've been told that's not true but we shall see, can't doubt your track record on here.
