Tisd09 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I think we should go that bit further with the bid, okay it will be said we caved into the ransom demand, but IMO he is a significant improvement on our current defenders so it would be worth the extra IMO. Prices this window are so inflated that our bid would not be out of place. Keane for 20mill plus, Bently 17mill, Elamander 11mill, Johnson 11million the prices are daft but thats the environment that we are in at the moment!

Guest sicko2ndbest Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 If you've voted walk away. What are your reasons? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
greydos Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 F**k being held to ransom!! It's like we think we're special or privileged and should be able to pay the year 2000's fees for the 2008 market's players!! Everyone has to pay the going price for players, or they get nobody (of note). We need to pull our fingers out and pay money for players!! The New Board are Beginning to F*** me OFF!!

Colos Short and Curlies Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Voted walk away based on the time line put forward (bid accepted, terms accepted, asking price increased). Its all right saying but its only £1m, but as it has been played out in the press via his agent every club will think they can do the same. Lets say we are trying to buy a further 5 players, an extra half million here, million there soon adds up to either: An additional transfer fee Room to manouver on wages.

Yeah, but when we're told one fee, offer it, and then get told well actually it's an extra €2m for you lot, you can see why the board would be a bit annoyed. I think they'll do it in the end.

Tsunami Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Normally I'd say pay the man, but we have met the price & their President is trying to take the piss. The player has accepted the terms so no problem with him. Hang tough & if Spurs or anyone else get him so be it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tisd09 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I can see what people are saying with the walk away, it is a bad way to conduct business by Depor, but if this was any old player say Senderous or Anton Ferdinand for example it wouldn't matter too much to lose out on them as they are unlikely to improve too much on what we have. But in Collicinni's case he SHOULD be a massive improvement on what we have got at the club so it is worth paying that little bit more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alijmitchell Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Pay the extra. We payed 3 million or whatever has been mooted for Guthrie, but even though he's no star, thats ok, its not money not spunked away (becasue he's a useful squad player). Why then can we not pull a little more cash out for someone who is actually going to improve the team significantly? We need the players, we have the agreement with the player, lets spend our money on some quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Pay the extra we are desperate and he is top class He's not the only one, we should look elsewhere there are plenty of good centrebacks out there. To have wasted this much time on a transfer target annoys me but surely there are other irons in the fire. We've been working on this deal for 3 months and it won't be the only deal we've got on the go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest goal! Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Fuck their cunt of a chairman, if we let him do this every other club we sign players from will probably do the same. This would be a disappointment for sure but i'd hope the bnard would have other options for if this fell through. I'd absolutely love it if we tell them to fuck off then collo turns round and says "i want to stay" which he does, then at the end of the season buys out his contract with them (webster style) for a pittance giving the chairman a double fingered solute! Then signs for us for practically free :-) This chairman from depor really is a piece of shit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
