Assuming they agree a fee with Coventry then you are correct.
Assuming they agree a fee with Coventry then you are correct.This is just made up. No one has offered him £40k and if they did he’s gone

If that is his intension or Viks doubt we can do anything about it like Youri Tielemans at Leicester and Brereton Diaz at Blackburn, bit risky for them I suppose but they will probably know where they are going, I doubt it, but you never know.And if they don’t he just hangs around for a year and negotiates his own deal
Waghorn was on £10k a week and Walker about the same.We have got it though CVD!.... Tyler Walkers wages for example... add that to Gus's current wages, we are probably over the rumoured "20k".
To be fair if any of the other crop come up to us and demand a pay rise all we have to say is “alright - if you can find the club that’s willing to pay you this, we’ll let you go.”
other than O’Hare there isn’t a single player other than Gyokeres and Hamer that’s won us games single handedly
That’s the point though? 100 quid a year increase, 150 actually as got prem package, for what?
to not keep on of the best players in the championship for absolute peanuts.
I thought we are losing £5m a year at the moment?How isn’t it affordable? we made money from the playoff run.that would cover his wages.
Where’s the money coming from?I'm amazed you and NW are dying on this hill tbh, being able to keep hold of a player of that talent for a reported 20k a week is relative peanuts, we could flog him straight after he signed it if we really wanted to.
We have the third lowest wage bill in the league don't we? This club deserves better.

Who has left then ? Must have missed something.That’s the point though? 100 quid a year increase, 150 actually as got prem package, for what?

So does almost every club in the championship, and on average to a much higher degree than we do. That is why player sales are so important.WE ARE LOSING MONEY
If that’s his intension nothing much we can do about it and he probably knows where he’s going.And if they don’t he just hangs around for a year and negotiates his own deal
We have the third lowest wage bill in the league ffs. If our owner is claiming to have ambition you think maybe we could expect a bit better than that?Where’s the money coming from?
Honestly. Noones saying he’s not good enough noones saying that he’s not worth that money. Noones saying we don’t want him to stay.
But to try and pretend it’s a no brainer or not a significant amount of money that sets a dangerous precedent is juvenile. We are not children playing football manager.
Can you not remember league two ffs
That’s such a dangerous attitude for me. Paying players crazy wages is what got us in the shit in the first place
people have short memories
Its not but it seems some of our fans are emotionally scarred from the SISU years and scared to actually want to be better.In what way is paying £20k/wk in the Championship for a players third contract when he’s one of the best in the league and worth millions “crazy wages”?
Have to agree with this take, although I see both sides of the argument. If Doug is expecting Play Offs in 3 of the next 5 years then to expect that on a bottom 3 wage structure would be delusional. MR has worked absolute wonders with this club, but eventually the branch will break if not properly supported.We have the third lowest wage bill in the league ffs.

Would that not comfortably be our highest wage paid to a player ever? 5 years ago that would probably be half of our wage billIn what way is paying £20k/wk in the Championship for a players third contract when he’s one of the best in the league and worth millions “crazy wages”?
It’s probably going rate in the championship. It’s denial. Doug is no better than SISU. He’s just better at PRIn what way is paying £20k/wk in the Championship for a players third contract when he’s one of the best in the league and worth millions “crazy wages”?
This is hilarious. We literally just got to a playoff final without paying more than £15k a week probably.Its not but it seems some of our fans are emotionally scarred from the SISU years and scared to actually want to be better.

I’d hazard a guess that all teams in the top 6 next season will have at least one player on 20k a week. Doug talks about play offs regularly - he needs to start competing with the Middlesbrough’s, West Brom’s and Sunderland’s.Would that not comfortably be our highest wage paid to a player ever? 5 years ago that would probably be half of our wage bill
I’m not even saying don’t do it, but this attitude of “just pay him what he’s worth” and “if we can’t do that then shows a lot about our ambition” when that’s never been our approach and not should it be
Remains to be seen tbf to Doug, but this window will tell us all we need to know about him.It’s probably going rate in the championship. It’s denial. Doug is no better than SISU. He’s just better at PR
I said this the other day - The play off final between us and Luton isn’t a common thing. Generally money will talk and the higher paying teams will be there or there aboutsThis is hilarious. We literally just got to a playoff final without paying more than £15k a week probably.
Now all of a sudden anyone who wants to take a breath before announcing that we need to pay Hamer whatever he wants otherwise we’ll never get anywhere and DK has no ambition, is “scared to actually want to be better”
fuck off

Have a day off. 5th highest attendances, 3rd lowest budget... its a joke and the club deserves better.This is hilarious. We literally just got to a playoff final without paying more than £15k a week probably.

It’s great to just stick your fingers in your ears and shout “the club deserves better” but unfortunately over here in the real world you need money to make the world go around
But whose saying we are gonna have the 3rd lowest budget this season?Have a day off. 5th highest attendances, 3rd lowest budget... its a joke and the club deserves better.

So it would be our highest ever wage or not? didn’t say he’s not worth it. Still can’t forget perspective thoughFive years ago we were in L1/2. There’s been massive inflation in player wages. But the fact is he’s worth it. He’s a known quantity, with clear talent, who we can sell for our money back at any point. How many of them have we had post relegation?
Which is fine - but if you’re going to make statements about competing with these clubs regularly - you got to back it properlyHow does our p&l compare to those other clubs?

I prefer to be better by spending cash on the foundations first, to produce multiple Hamers in the future, rather than the spunk and gamble approach.Its not but it seems some of our fans are emotionally scarred from the SISU years and scared to actually want to be better.

‘Join the journey’ remember TomAnyway if Doug won't dig out a new contract for Hamer would someone mind dropping fat Mike an email to see if he's interested in a football club?
