Kid in the Riot Posted June 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 20 minutes ago, GrahamC said: If this is true (& I have absolutely no reason to doubt you) then seeing as he’s in BS3 on the day his contract expires whilst we are training, only a super optimist would now think he’s staying. I like Tomas as a player but still see this as pretty disrespectful, we should withdraw our contract offer now & move on. If our contract offer was along the lines of what @Ecko suggested (and I have no reason to doubt them) then I'm not surprised he's moving on, as he'll get better contract offers elsewhere, including in the Championship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not arguing with any of that, just think a communication from him & the club that we’re parting ways would have made more sense now we’re back in training & he’s either on holiday in Prague or trawling round the gentrified parts of BS3 whilst his former team mates are doing SDS tests..

LondonBristolian Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 I still think this is a massively complex one where it is hard to know what the club should have been. It could easily be that we've low-balled and lost a player who has had a difficult 15 months of injuries but will go on to excel elsewhere but we could equally have been that we paid what a fit Kalas was worth and found ourselves with an expensively paid player struggling for form and fitness. If he is gone then I hope it is amicable and I wish him well elsewhere. It would be a shame given how good Kalas can be on his day but, at the same time, I think Vyner, Dickie, Atkinson and Naismith make for a good quartet of centre-backs and - whilst we need one more to come in if Kalas does not sign - it remains far from our weakest position. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCRED Posted June 30, 2023 Report Share Posted June 30, 2023 Kalas for what we paid for him has been disappointing since being at City I appreciate he’s struggled with injuries the last 18 months and he will more than likely leave this summer The club have obviously offered him a new deal but very much risk based and I for one feel that is the right thing to do if TK thinks he can get a better deal elsewhere then he is free to do so in the knowledge that he can always re-sign with us but I dare say the club have a timeline on the contract offer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those three cost us more than £10m in transfer fees alone, Coventry would have them all for free.

As much as I don't hold any animosity towards Palmer I get that we didn't get a good deal there but to throw the other 2 into that category is just wrong. Especially Kalas, apart from last season when he had injuries he has been absolutely class for us and even captained the side. 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was more a dig at the people that signed them (and in the case of palmer barely used him). we simply shouldn’t of been paying those sorts of fees and wages IMO. It was reckless and nearly cost us big time 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
