To go from Clarke-Harris to this guy is a bit of a come down. Not quite sure what they are expecting to get from him? I'm sure there is interest, but they seem to be spending more than anybody else is willing to pay in order to get it done quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Market value of 285k so looks like they’re paying over the odds for him Can't really see many teams falling over themselves to pay big money for a midfielder from a team 19th in L2? It's almost like a prospect player (Murphy or Stokes) and taking a punt on Future development. The thing is he will be thrown straight in as a sink or swim option.

This could either be a very shrewd highlighting of talent, or he struggles straight away? Their record fee isn’t that much though. From the Post article: “There is always debate regarding what actually is the League One club's record transfer fee, although it is still generally believed to be £370,000 paid to Queen's Park Rangers in 1992 for Andy Tillson.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Watts Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 I find the Academy thing quite sad really. Compared to some of its neighbours, Kuwait have actually not fared too badly in terms of Human Rights violations.... ......And then this happens to undo all that hard work! 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Some of them are claiming that the club have paid well in excess of Conteh's release fee. Seems a bit strange if so, was there really that much competition for this bloke? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The release fee is likely to be the starting point at which the club have to start a conversation, if 3 clubs come in, they can probably accept the highest offer above the release fee.

Yes, but as I said, I don't see very much on this guy that would warrant two or three clubs to start a bidding war. 9 minutes ago, GrahamC said: Hargreaves is a sycophant.

He was up Bartons arse all the time that thug was manager. Now he's gone he's calling him out. 100% sycophant and now hypocrite. Fair do's that he's had a go at the owners, but he's shown what he's about previously imo. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miah Dennehy Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 (edited) As you were chaps, reliable sources tell me that our new man 'John' was priced at a very reasonable 81% of a Tillson.
