Simms is barely even proven at championship level, it's not even comparable to the best player to have ever lived.
Hamer (30 Viewers)
- Thread starter Covcraig@bury
- Start date
None of us know what he was offered, none of us know what other clubs are saying to him, and none of us know what's going on in his head. Grown men on here blaming the club, the player, the agent or whatever else when in reality we have absolutely no idea what's happening. The club know his worth to us and will have made him an offer accordingly, we'll wait and see but at 26 it's understandable if he'd like to play at a higher level. The club's well run and I'm sure they'll be a contingency plan in place if he leaves. Everyone calm down and let's get excited for Leicester + more incoming transfers! Pusb

It gives an insight into what lengths people think the club should go to in order to retain one player. Rather than wages per week, think of it per year instead. How much is too much?
It's a possibility. However - If we ended up 10th he would leave for free and we wouldn't be as attractive a prospect for people coming in (and we wouldn't have any additional cash to buy). Not saying that's going to happen but it's all a gamble isn't it?
It is true really. Ellis Simms would surely say to the club that if you're willing to offer £8m for me you need to back that up with a proper salary offer. He's not coming for 10K a week is he?

Vic’s sale was indeed a game changer and yes it’s bankrolled an overhaul of the team, hopefully it also means that Hamer doesn’t need to be sold to balance the books.
Look, if we can get £15m + then fair enough ‘we should probably take it.
But if it’s less £10m and we had assurances he would give everything to the club, I honestly think it’s a worthwhile gamble.
No - It's a matter of negotiation.

No one has said he’s on that but again he’s a striker who is young and could be worth a lot more in two years. There’s little risk in the signing
From our point of view quite possibly. From his, there were a number of clubs after him and why wouldn't he want his salary to reflect that?

You could justify any salary like that. Personally I wouldn’t hand a player with less than half a season of a Championship football under his belt that kind of money, at least not if it was the most were willing to offer.

Also by that logic hamer will attract little premiership interest having no experience at that level

It's more that you wouldn't expect Hamer to go to a Premier League club and be amongst the highest earners straight away.
He would be on the lower end of salary for a first team Premier League player to reflect his lack of experience in the league, still be a lot more than he would be on as a top earner here.

Apparently the club have rejected bids from premier league clubs, so someone rates him.

Sometimes, at a certain time, an individual player can be actually priceless to a club…

Priceless? Everyone has a price no matter how important they are perceived to be.

Waghorn on £30k a week. Your having a laugh.
£30k a month and you will be close.

It could be argued that the greater part of most transfer fees (not all) is based on a player’s future potential.

Im not sure you’re using the word logic in its generally accepted sense.

I'll leave the pistol at home then, and bring my flame-thrower. In the unlikely event you catch me with a jammy shot, please respect my wish to be buried in the garden with my faithful hound. Not the current one, mind, he wouldn't appreciate that. His predecessor.

It’s dragging way too much now. To the point it’s overshadowing what has been a positive few weeks transfer wise.
Thankfully not on Twitter / barely look at Facebook, but I can imagine this topic is taking over and negatively is creeping out.
If he’s going he needs to go. However I’ll think he’ll be here for the season.
