Someone said we could do better. He might not cost that much at all out of contract and might avoid all the normal future clauses.

I wouldn't pay over a million but you're buying potential rather than finished article. It's the market we're shopping in. Yes, there may be others who are better that are available, but wouldn't be upset if the club decided to bring him in permanently. Think he suffered for the lack of playing time.

Have no idea what's planned for Hamer but I suspect that whatever happens will be decided by Mark Robins
We really didn't want to lose Marc McNulty and did everything we could to keep him
After a rocky start McNulty was an ever-present and scored heaps of goals which is always going to get you noticed
But once the player made it clear he wanted to leave we did the sensible thing and got the best deal possible with the money being given to MR to reinvest
Hamer in contrast came out with all guns blazing and was being talked about in the game as a player who could possibly play at a higher level
We all know that the relentless season probably took a toll on him and after a few indifferent performances he stopped being an automatic starter
Hamer probably wasn't as important to the team as McNulty was
If there is a bidding war for him it might suit Robins & Viveash to cash in and get the best deal possible if he's allowed to reinvest the money again
It's going to be interesting

Why are people quick to question Walsh’s injuries and experience at this level, yet are happy to ignore Jodi Jones’ ACL injuries and no real experience at this level or the one below.
I don’t want to sell Hamer, but if it led to us getting Ostigard and money in return whilst getting Walsh I would really consider it

I didn't realise that. Then the obvious deal would be a loan and tgat could be a good deal also.Hes under contract until 2022

Jodi jones would be cheaper than Walsh. Walsh on a free might be a good punt and back up to O'Hare... but thats what it would be a punt, he would need to reduce his wages.

I hope we can keep Hamer, I feel he will thrive with a crowd behind him. He was excellent when he first came in and with the weird season and move to a new country you cant blame him for a dip in form.
I'd happily take Gyo next season depending on cost. But can't really see how we could get Osti

What makes you think Walsh’s wages would be high, he’s never consistently played at this level and has come off a bad injury. He’s definitely going to be in our price range.

Walsh will be on far higher wages at Bristol City than Jodi Jones renegotiating a Lge 2 contract. Both are untested at this level.

100%, plus if we keep hamer, extend Kelly, sign James and Sheaf (which is an obligation), we don't need another cm in that mould.
According to this Walsh is on £6k pw

I doubt Jones is on much more than £2k pw if that.

We need to be setting our sights on bringing in a first choice striker and actually improving what we offer. Gyokeres is not an improvement on Godden or Walker. Whilst he’s young, he’s not exactly a baby either and I’ve not seen anything to suggest he’s going to become a star.
Respectfully, you’re fucking mental if you think Gyokeres would cost £1.5m.

He was brought in because we needed a striker, had very limited budget and not a lot of options. Robins quickly decided he was below Biamou in the pecking order. He’s done OK towards the end of the season but I’d be suprised if he was number 1 target this summer.

James got more minutes and set play deliveries as a result of Hamer's form dip. The fall of Hamer came first.

We were never in the game to compete with MM and could only offer half of what Reading paid paid him, without the chunky signing on fee.

Of course you do. You’re not allowed to pass a less than delighted opinion about someone unless you yourself are a fully qualified scout or director of football! What do you think this is, some kind of fans discussion forum????

It would depend on what we could get for him. If selling him would give us the scope to bring in 3 players, esp someone like osti, it becomes a tantalising deal. But if it only going to be enough to replace like with like I think we may as well stick with what we've got. Hopefully a rest over summer will see him back to his better form.

It wouldn’t be in place of him, he would expect to be starting every game.

James Collins reveals he spoke to CCFC and why he opted for Luton We spoke to him but didn't follow up with a bid. Robins said we couldn't afford him at the time.

Argh I see thanks for that. Interesting we have looked at him though. Maybe in a better position now with no fee attached.

He's probably slightly too old for what we normally look at. Would never rule anything out but would guess it's unlikely.

He's on 4k a week currently at Luton. You would hope that's within reach.

That’s plenty in reach I’d assume we’d be able to double it if Robins wants him
