O'Hare bids (9 Viewers)

[better days]

Yes and once they see what is on offer who can blame them but I think you will be aware , none of these players are wanting to leave and love it here
I think for O’hare it will be a massive move for him , in terms of moving away from family and friends

100% SBB
Probably the same was true of Grealish at AV and back in the day Rooney at Everton where his whole family were Evertonians
There's a great atmosphere in the camp
But all the players see their team mates go from fan's favourites to 'deadwood' after suffering serious injury when doing their job for the club

I don't mind replacing him with a loan player as long as it's the right player. Would like to see the money invested in an actual signing though. Loans are great to supplement what you have with additional quality, but shouldn't be your core.

Really to keep things moving you want two in for one out, both with potential to be the next big sale. You can’t ask for a 100% hit rate from the recruitment team. Doesn’t have to be the same position, but you need to restock.

Elliot Anderson please. And ask Derby what they want for Sibley and Bird. Realistically will end up with Clive Anderson, Dickie Bird and Dom Sibley

Can’t knock Dom Sibley’s defensive qualities

 

[Great_Expectations]

100% yes , I think only Shipley has gone and said he wants to go to get game time . Every single player loves being in this squad , that’s also testament to the senior pros who keep the camp happy

The purpose of the thread aside, this is really encouraging to read.

It certainly seems a happy camp, with great camaraderie and togetherness, so it’s great to see it confirmed.

This fee in itself is as much as possibly all them fees together isn't it ?

Yes we sold most of them more as prospects as we had to sell them sooner, Maddison was £22m from Norwich

 

[shmmeee]

Best case here. £8m in, £5m to Sisu, £3m to Robins, he goes and picks up another Sheaf/Hamer/Györkeres type signing at AM, CM and CB. We go into the season with a very balanced squad.

 

[shmmeee]

Our record sale in this division by some distance

Could end up being our biggest fee ever once add ons are included.

 

[SkyblueDad]

Is the imminent move more down to our board encouraging him to move so we can get the money?

Our “board” is on bloke isn’t it toxic Tim Fisher

 

[Matt smith]

Who do you reckon we’ll bring in?

Do you think we’ll sign 2 players

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Boddy too

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Very sad but he’s been such a star

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

The add ons include winning the Ballon D’Or and walking on the moon

No mate I’m a new poster and I’m matt smith

I don’t get why I’m constantly being recognised as someone else

New poster who really enjoys the discussions and the site

It's been very confusing for me. That's also my real name and when I've been reading some of the threads I've seen my name, forgotten it's not me and been sitting there thinking 'There's no way I'd post shite like that!!'

We all dream of a team of matt smiths

SISU's investment went when they liquidated the two previous CCFC entities, their investment in Otium is practically zero

If 1 goes at the top of the squad to strengthen i would say you need 2 of equal ability. That's going to be so difficult as COH stats and data are very high. And the fact he is very rarely was injured will be another factor not mentioned. Lastly the confidence he gave his team mates to be able to make something happen will be missed. So 2 would soften the blow.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Don’t understand why they get mentioned tbh, their owner put over £100m before promotion. Our “model” is Huddersfield when they went up or something like that

Huddersfield owner put a fortune in over the years as well so not really like them either

They need to at least spend 25% of the sale

SISU really are one of a kind

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Not allowed to complain about it though because otherwise we’d end up like Derby

Sisu are great now

These sustainable financial plan lovers are going to have egg on their face when all they replace him with a 6 ft 7 forward who was at Oldham a few years ago

 

[skyblueinswansea]

I haven't been posting as often recently as I seem to have a stalker
I've had him on ignore bur no doubt he's hovering over his keyboard waiting for every post I make
But he shouldn't bother
I'm afraid COH is on his way to Lancashire
It's not fair to blame anyone at the club
The personal terms are astronomical and virtually any player would want to take advantage of a life changing offer like this
But of course the club still have power and we have driven a hard bargain
Certainly more than the £5m Fulham offered
If there is any consolation it's that we are in a stronger position to demand a higher fee for Gus if a wealthier club comes in for him in similar circumstances with a stupendous contract offer

I hope my previous message about you and believer hasn’t made me out to be a stalker… or the fact I’m sat in your garden… I’m just a big fan

 

[Greggs]

George Thomas and Luke Flange are the names doing the rounds on twitter.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Would need to take in at least £5 million in add ons for that to be the case.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

I think he is happy here he’s said as much and I know money talks but who is pushing this, Boddy, Fisher and what if O’Hare tells them to do one

You can be happy somewhere and still decide to take up a better opportunity

 

[Matt smith]

Steven sessegnon too?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

At least it's not Bournemouth.

I'd rather that than see him play against us in an OP team twice. Granted if he joined Bournemouth that'd simply happen the following season.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Bit pissed off with our honours list for 600 years myself

Someone needs to remind SISU the budget isn't on 1422 conversion rates

 

[Greggs]

Greedy little prick. Lost a lot of my respect for him. Such a soulless game nowadays.
At least no more of that Tom Grennan knob anymore.

No more Tom Grennan would make this deal worth it easily

The sitting in the garden although worrying was not the real issue, its when u started to sniff his underpants is when it went too far......

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Stop stressing everyone, the coventry king has spoken

At least we found cc84

Unsure if Villa had sell on clauses too

How can they? He was released?
