If Warnock means what he says then I'd assume we will get that man in soon as that is well within our budget, 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) 7 minutes ago, BoroSmoggie said: We shouldn’t be paying anything over 8k for a 3rd choice striker. We offered Moore the best wages he had on the table that was close to 20k, with the 2 striker formation you need to allocate money into the 3rd choice especially as they're likely to get 30+ games for the season. Sanogo was on 20k at Toulouse was one of their highest earners as they got relegated he's not coming for less than 15k I imagine that's why I suspect he was the anecdote Warnock was using. Still not entirely clear whether we want Zohore AND Sanogo or we're going for Zohore because Warnock thinks Sanogo is stalling the article never quite makes that distinction. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

So if he wants to come now the logical contract to offer him would be 5 magic beans 1 Link to post Share on other sites
BoroSmoggie 2,678 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 For what’s it worth, I’d much rather have Zohore then Sanogo. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Foogle 2,078 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I think Sanogo on a permanent might be a better option, unless we can tie Fletcher and Britt to new deals we'd be without a senior striker at the end of the season... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Redcar Rioja 5,870 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I understand the nervy comparisons with last Summer but stop for just a second and think, Woodgate was a stooge, a Patsy, a Fall Guy and not all but most of us knew it at the time. Warnock however is most definitely not gullible or about to see his career reputation tarnished because of duplicitous goings on behind the scenes. He is pragmatic and will know what the club/he has to spend and as he has already intimated that he isn't going to be pushing for Gestede type contracts under the present circumstances. In football, as in life plans and objectives change, none more so than in 2020. Maybe the hope was 6 weeks ago that we could cash in on Britt and McNair but maybe the new reality is that here they will be staying unless a ridiculous late offer comes in. Either way its far better to bull up his Players both for the benefit of his team and just in case an offer does come in for a Player that is "highly regarded" rather than a squad outcast. Devaluing his assets would be a crassly stupid managerial technique in any walk of life. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Skinemrippers 894 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Really interesting article and it does seem to back up what we’ve been seeing with out of contract players not getting snapped up. If they think they can ask for a big signing on fee and bumper wages because there’s no transfer fee, it’s good to see it’s not only us being unprepared to pay. It might bring salaries down to a manageable level. I suspect that’s the issue with Stewart as well, rejected our offer expecting better elsewhere and now he’s sat without a club. Maybe things will get moving closer to deadline day. I know it’s frustrating but I’m pleased we’re not being held to ransom. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Tarmo 39 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Got a text off a mate just now saying Gibson is supposedly close to joining Norwich. We couldn't agree terms with Burnley. Can imagine a bit of a meltdown commencing if this turns out to be true... Don't shoot the messenger fellas Link to post Share on other sites
