But carry on.. Suppose if you’ve just spanked 20k/week on Christ Brunt, Mariappa, even Mawson, without offering the potential Crown Jewels a new deal. 3 minutes ago, bcfc01 said: "if we don't know what our revenue is going to be because of the pandemic, then how can we judge how much we can afford" "don't even know when supporters will be back" "so its about timing, when we have an idea of revenue streams we can move forward" Seems eminently sensible to me.

DT The Optimist Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 Great show GT asking great questions.... and while many do not like MA, I buck that trend... I do like him and whether people like it or not... he talks a lot of sense. You may or may not agree with him but he right. We could be like Derby County or other championship clubs facing administration... we are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobArnold10 Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 Two footed approach from Geoff, love to hear it. I really struggle to believe anything MA is saying. Mind, to say we’ve made any formal offers to any OOC players other than Fam is one hell of a statement, and what a gamble that’ll no doubt blow up in our faces.

MA is right. The club should not be held to ransom...he's had a really good offer... good luck to him in China or Turkey or where ever he ends up.. if not here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, the OOC I believe are Fam, Walsh, Hunt, Pato, Weimann, Baker 4 of 6 of those are injured, 3 of those 4 long term. If you don’t know revenue and you don’t know how they’ll recover, it seems to be an appropriate gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Mrs has been posting videos in the snow for days when there hasn't been any around our area Tbf it’s really common in football to not move the family home but stay in the area during the week. If an average term of contract is 2 years that’s totally sensible. Case in point - Neil Warnock.

Greedo Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 If it’s all about ‘timing’ with Walsh and not offering him a deal to avoid upsetting the rest of the squad, what’s the difference with Famara? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 We can’t sign Walsh as every other player will want new contracts too? Wtf, if they aren’t OOC tough, they can’t expect new deals. Not his words, but that’s the meaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loco Rojo Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 19 minutes ago, Henry said: Basically said we can’t afford to offer Walsh a contract. I’m sure Holden said he was due to sign a contract with it days at start of the season? Perhaps Walsh wants more than first offered or (more likely) we are now feeling the impacts financially of COVID and have had to revise the original offer / terms?
