Dom Hyam - Blackburn bid ? (8 Viewers)

[skyblu3sk]

Brereton-Diaz will be sold
Several clubs are interested
Blackburn want to get as much as they can for him so they are encouraging a bidding war

Do you know if they need the money from the sale before they can take Hyam?

I'd guess we are asking for a hefty up front first instalment which may be what's complicating it

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Seems a really daft situation. Have we accepted a bid subject to another club’s incomplete business?

And not played him just mad

The fee is already a joke, why take the piss more?

Does that make you feel more than £1.5m selling price?

What a strange concept!

We don't know the fee so how can you judge

I think MR said a bid has been accepted so it's more likely to be the terms of payment holding things up
The more you see of football financial dealings the madder it is

Happens all the time
The most recent similar big deal was Onana to Everton where there was a bidding war for both the club transfer fee and player's personal terms

Sorry was being sarcastic as we've seemingly just accepted any old shit from Blackburn

I think the fee is higher - Blackburn press is always going to talk the value down aren’t they.

Not what happens. If anything, they talk it up.

Smacks of desperation to sell by our board with no thought towards the team or performance. Sell quick, cheap because Joy needs a new handbag

Yeah as shown with the Forest purchase of Gibbs-White. Bigger fees make better headlines.

Yup, shows ambition, drive, gives a good feeling about the club. Suits both buying and selling clubs to suggest that the fee is higher - selling club for obvious reasons, buying club for good PR and hopefully encourage a few more fans along.

But it’s not official though… just ‘sources’

Well my direct source is one of David Beckham's ex PR gurus, who told me directly that everything is hyped up to get clubs, players (and by extension their sponsors) some coverage. So those 'sources' are often more informed than not. It doesn't mean they *all* are of course, but it's not all made up.

(Well, it is... intentionally, but not by the press!)

As soon as there was any chance of hyam going , we were never going to risk him getting injured

That doesn't fill.me with confidence that it's more than £1.5m. I can imagine it's nut in an unregulated-ish cut throat industry like football!

Hmmm I'm not getting a warm fuzzy feeling it's as high as we'd hope. Depends if Cov want to hide some money coming in to the club for a bit though.

If Hyam's transfer is delayed, it puts us in a dreadful position. I assume we will have someone lined up but it may go to the wire.

Nacho Novo's packing his bags as we speak.

 

[skybluereeve]

@betterdays will Robins be able to replace?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The amount of up front money being received just doesn’t seem worth it

If we're going to draft in cokeheads I'd prefer we bring back Noel Whelan.

 

[stupot07]

What a shit transfer window, as it stands we are a weaker squad than last season. 3 more days to pull a rabbit out the hat.

Robins said in his interview he has made an approach for a replacement

I might have to ask where they get their supply if I have to try and decode any more Voice of Reason threads

 

[Mcbean]

Price should go up for each game he misses ! 1/2 a mil per pop - wankers - chicken sales are down

People were adamant this was a better window - loans are definitely poorer - I know palmer got a lot of credit yesterday but he’s a high risk signing. Our bench included two players we are openly trying to move on.

JCS and Maatsen are far better than Panzo, Doyle and Tayo, throw Hyam into the mix too.

Palmer did ok yesterday, I wasn't as impressed as some.

Only 1 of the 4 signings (Panzo) would get the first 11 if all were fit, and we've lost 3 players (Hyam, JCS & Maatsen) who would start week in week out.

To be fair most did add the caveat of as it stands, and saying if we didn't sell anyone. As at this moment that's still true but looks almost certain to change in the next few days.

Possibly but unlikely to involve a large fee

I think take the word Large out
