TLF10 4,492 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Anything less than £20m and our club are idiots for selling. Even at £20m i would insert a sell on fee and ask for a season loan back or its a no deal. I see Hull are getting £10m from the sell on clause they inserted in Maguire contract when they sold him to Leicester for £18m 3 Link to post Share on other sites

ManBearPig 1,853 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Boro hierarchy should play hard ball. Everyone else does it to us, we shouldn't cash in on him for a lower price than Adam *** Webster at the very least. I bet the lads in the Burnley board room did it as a joke and had looks like this when they picked the phone up Link to post Share on other sites
LBP 3,035 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 We’d need 2 cbs fit for the first team if Fry goes with 66 hours to go? Link to post Share on other sites
BillinghamBoro 229 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Be very concerning if we sell Fry. Would only accept a really daft error if true, personally I see him being better than Gibson. I just hope the top brass are ok after laughing their *** off at 8 mil Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Gary Gill did identify Maguire and Lindelof maybe he could find a replacement for Fry that'd ease the pain but what budget would we allocate to replace him? 5 million? If we sold him for 20 million is 25% an unreasonable amount to ask for a replacement? We clearly need to bank alot of the money but if we go hunting with 5 million in the wallet I'm half scared who we'd come back with. Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,492 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 If the club do sell they need to be really clever here as it could be most important sale we make in a very long time imo. He a huge saleable asset and a good transfer fee could shape direction this club goes in for next few years. The club needs to remember we hold all the cards here. He on a long contract, he does not want to go and he knows he has a big future if he stays. Thus the club needs to milk the best transfer fee possible or tell Burnley to go where the sun is currently not shining. In fact i would ring Burnley and say "You want him. He is what we want. Dont bother contacting us with anything less because we got 3 days to make 4 signings ourselves so we are too busy for you to be wasting our time". Link to post Share on other sites
