It would seem that we can offer a substantial amount in the transfer market , for an international player , but our Doug can’t give Cal £25 or £30k a week ?

Not every player is valued the same , do you what to improve the team or do you want to sign o hare ?
We can improve the team even if o hare goes or are our fans suggesting cal is the best attacking midfielder a club like us could attract ?

You must admit that he is an integral part of not just our team , but of the dressing room , so I really can’t understand why Doug & co can’t see the massive benefits of signing him on a better contract .
We would also be in the box seat for any transfer activity that comes ….. possible millions to be made , as he will only get better .

Perhaps he doesn't want to stop, regardless of whatever is offered wage wise

I suspect it's not that so much as not wanting to upset other players who feel they are worth the same or similar to COH.
It will be very damaging to the morale of the squad if we have a queue of players banging on Doug's door demanding a pay rise, especially if their demands are refused.
I'm as keen as anyone to keep COH because he's my favourite player but sometimes you just have to be realistic.
I suspect he will leave in the summer and - like Hamer - end up at one of the lesser Premiership clubs, possibly one of the newly promoted ones. I fear that our only hope is to get promoted, when we may be able to afford a wage structure that keeps everyone happy.

And if he doesn't want to sign it? Have you considered that?

Firmly believe Cal is waiting until the summer to make a decision and why wouldn't he? He knows he has a contract here whether he signs it now or in June so no incentive for him to sign now. If we get promoted I think he'll stay, if we don't he'll move on.

Why would he accept an offer like that in the Championship when he is ambitious and wants to play in the Prem?

Exactly this why woukdnt he wait till the summer.
If we make it to the premier league there is no doubt he will sign the contract.
This contract offer given around xmas time is probably not our final offer.

But if a club would pay him £45k a week due to there being no transfer fee, should our Doug match this... when do you draw the line?

Firstly, we don’t have any idea what King has offered O’Hare. The club seem to know he is going so it’s perfectly valid to look for a replacement and to get a quality one you need to spend money. The club doesn’t revolve around O’Hare. He signs or doesn’t - either way we move on.
It’s just not as easy as offering him 30 k a week. You offer him 30k and what to do the others think? Players that have performed on par or even better than O’Hare? Can cause unrest.
The contract should have been offered during his injury and we might well have done. We aren’t hearing anything until the end of the season. He wants to play in the premier league, same as Hamer. It’s not about the wage.

The only way we know anything before June when the Premier League teams can speak to him is if someone us included offers him stupid money.
Until then we have to wait

Yet another deluded post. You don’t know what has been offered to O’Hare. You only need to listen to what Robins said the other day to understand O’Gare is going to wait to see what else he may be offered. That’s his risk by not signing anything now a bad injury could mean his career is over but I suspect this is no different to Hamer. Simple he wants to the chance to play in the Premier League. If we make it he’ll sign if not if Leeds or one of the like offer him the chance at that standard he’ll go.
I think he needs to find a yard of pace from somewhere to cut it in the Premier League as a 10.

The ball is definitely in Cal's court.
But he has to consider all options. Including if he get's injured between now and the end of the season, we technically have no duty of care to support him after June. I doubt we would leave him but we would have that option.

In my opinion he’s quite a long way off being a prem level player. His decision making isn’t top level and he lacks a yard of two of pace. Hamer is actually a good example. A far superior player to O’Hare and he’s barely making an impact at an already relegated club.

Did we need another thread for this? Couldn’t this have just gone on the other thread regarding his contract?

OP is assuming Cal is desperate to sign a new deal but evil Doug won't open his wallet .. ridiculous. Really stinks of that twat Dawkins stirring the pot. He is a massive negative influence on the club now. I wish more fans would call him out. Just bitter at this point. Lame
O'Hare has all the time in the world to wait and see what offers come in. He can see where we are at the end of the season and if we don't match his ambition then he can leave.
Robins has said if he leaves it won't be for the want of trying on the clubs side.

Some people are not considering the possibility that Callum doesn't want to sign at all, wants to move to a bigger club for a big fat signing on fee and long lucrative contract, and is just stringing us along by saying 'i don't know what's going on innit', so the fans still love him, and DK/MR get all the grief.

He started on about Sheaf leaving straight after the game yesterday as he's allegedly ITK, proper shit stirrer, he blocked me on X when I challenged him, obviously got him rattled,

This isn’t complicated.
If we go up he signs, if we don’t he leaves for nothing. A win for him either way and doesn’t make sense to sign for a PL club now that’s probably in this division next season anyway.
Unlike Vik he seemingly can’t just say this in public

It’s not just the £22k plus a week he wants its the signing on and loyalty bonus of couple of million quid his agents requests On his behalf.
Problem is he can achieve that with a new club as a free agent, so wants us to match it.

Keep up. He has been offered a contract and chosen not to respond to it. He hasn't said that's not enough money? He is waiting to see what his options are at the end of the season which he is entitled to do. Get over it.

Would have to agree, love O'Hare but not sure many premier league clubs would take him based on 2 months football so far.
O'Hare was brilliant for us pre injury but lacked the end product to make the step up, looks to have added that now but at the moment his goalscoring form is a purple patch based on his career so far.
Think if we don't go up he's more likely to end up at Burnley in the championship as we know they were keen on him before.

Even if we got promoted no guarantee COH would stay. I honestly think all this talk is BS, he has been a fantastic signing and deserves to be left alone. If he goes its with a mass majority of the fans thanks.
Appreciate watching a very very player, nothing more nothing less.
