I meant now!
Didn’t all three of them go for around that much?

McCallum was only a year ago!
I think if you gave our recruitment team £3m they’d come back with a player of similar potential to Hamer
Yakubu springs to mind.Thanks for the cliches. I dread to think what football was like when it didn't move.

He's at the end of his contract, hasn't played this season and virtually untested at Championship level. We would be mad to pay anything like that.Doubt we'd get Walsh for £3m.
Well he cost £1.3m, I’d assume we won’t find another as easily so have more than doubled that. £3m will find you a championship level player easily.
You seem to be missing the point. We can't or ever replace him like for like.
It will be of lesser quality player or should I say a player of much less value.
Again your missing the point. Never mind.Why? We’ve come up from L2 using this exact model. Why is it suddenly beyond the realms of possibility?

Hamer is arguably one of the buys of the championship if not the buy of the season. You reckon we can we can keep on recruiting players of that ilk season on season. Answer is No.
Buying players with potential is one thing. Realising that potential is another.
He's irreplaceable!
I agree that we've struck gold with Hamer and it's unrealistic to expect us to do it year in year out.Hamer is arguably one of the buys of the championship if not the buy of the season. You reckon we can we can keep on recruiting players of that ilk season on season. Answer is No.

In the past if we signed a Hamer you'd have to attribute it to luck more than judgement. But now, because our recruitment team have a clear plan and are strategic with who they sign we've got a much better % chance than most other clubs at our level of unearthing these talents.
But yes they won't all work, you only have to look in our squad to see that.
If he doesn't sign a contract we could get him for a whole lot less than that in the summer.
I reckon if we had a ‘normal’ budget our success rate would be even higher
I reckon if my budget was bigger, my house would be bigger
We'd be competing with Brentford.You know what I mean, we’d use it better than other clubs on similar money and wouldn’t need to go into freebies as much
£6m for Hamer and i think we’d see two players who would be the best in our team.
They will be on the champions league stage next year that’s a big lure to ambitious players and can lead to top European clubs.Whilst Rangers are a big club, would they match his likely ambition?
Possibly but I would think he'd be aiming for a top league in a bigger pond.
None of this matters. If Rangers can pay top dollar, we sell him to Rangers. If Halifax paid top dollar I'd sell him. What we don't want is somebody trying to get in early and get him cheap, because SISU need or want the cash. We are unlikely get top dollar in January.They will be on the champions league stage next year that’s a big lure to ambitious players and can lead to top European clubs.

For £6m I reckon we could get Walsh; Bright; Keogh and tempt McSheff back.
Maybe you would become”sky blue monsterman”?I reckon if my budget was bigger, my house would be bigger

tbf until he becomes not injured, we don't know if his manager really does rate him, or is just spouting cliches.Their manager rates him highly doesn't he
Their manager rates him highly doesn't he and he's not been playing because he's injured...is that right? I've not really followed his situation that much. You'd imagine that he'll be in contract talks because if his contract is up in the summer, he'll have been free to speak to people from the 1st January and I cannot see anything online.
With you now!
Whether they’d be exactly as good as Hamer who knows, but I’d wager they’d be of his upper Championship level. Which is my point. £6m for Hamer and i think we’d see two players who would be the best in our team.
Hamer is a decent buy, but he’s the result of a process that’s found Sheaf and Walker for <£1m and the likes of Østigård. I’d wager we could find more, that’s all I’m saying. I don’t think we’d be back to the “sell McSheffrey and buy Kyle and McKenzie” days.
