Bristol_Badger Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 If it's between us and Forest, we have no chance, especially after their recent investment. Feel free to quote me on that. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciderbeans Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Forests investment means nothing atm. Mick macarthy doesn't even want to sign for them after discussions. Possibly a disagreement on salary or even transfer limitations. Until they have a manager in place, we will be in pole position I believe. We are a much better prospect this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westonred Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 A player wouldn't sign for a club without a manager surely so i think we are in a better postion than the florists at the mo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex#40 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I'd still go and pick him up and let him stay at mine if he signed. Just what we've missed since Hartley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider red Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Would be a fantastic signing but i can see wages being a problem? surely qpr would have offered him more than us and he turned that down?? perhaps it was more wanting first team football though. I dont understand why forest would be trying to sign players when they dont have a manager yet either, that to me makes us favourites if we are actually in the running.

numbeast Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 If Del Wants Buzaky and presents a compelling case to Steve Lansdown then I think we will offer a competitive wage package, as we did with James. It's not all about reducing the wage bill, although that does have to be considered, but more about getting value for money. DMc will have his tactics set out in his mind for next season and has no doubt gone through them with SL when the met in Guernsey. Gone are the days of having "clubs in the bag" or panic purchases or loans to cover vital positions. Lansdown has wanted a leaner squad for quite some time and by reducing the squad size we will be able to offer better wages whilst still bringing the over all wage bill down.

Just because we have to reduce the wage bill does not mean we have to offer every player a lower wage. We have lost alot of the wage bill already. We had a lot of mediocraty on medium-high wages the last few seasons and we have managed to get them off but we can have a couple of very good footballers (Akos and possibly Gordpon) on high wages because theybwill be worth it and we would have saved it in other areas.

nebristolred Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 This would be an incredible signing. To add an extra weight in our favour, I reckon Bristol is probably a better place to live than Nottingham too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfcchris2016 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Another thing is, how did he settle down in Plymouth. If he liked the area and wants to move to the west country again then that could always help us lure him in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has said many times that he enjoyed his time in the west country before so you never know. Keep him fit and he will be a star in this division.
