its not exactly a brave new world if we are having to ship players out before getting new ones in
Think we are shipping players out because we know players are coming in otherwise I’m certain Waggy would have been kept, he has limitations but is an old head to have on the bench. Not Kane think MR wanted him away asap.

We have shipped out two players who are never likely to be first team regulars. Fantastic business.

Think it's a bit early to say to be fair. Think Kane was always going to go regardless. I like Waghorn but it's not worked out this season for him. Suspect he was one that Robins was referring to when talking about players needing to look outside of CCFC.

There's nothing to suggest these players had to go to bring new faces in.

Can't believe the negativity around Waghorn. He and Gyo had a great partnership up until he got Covid. He obviously has some form of long covid that affected his performances since.

Good luck to him...I hope he does well. Also well liked amongst the squad. Players normally react poorly with shit/lazy players...didn't seem too happen with Waghorn.

His miss at the start of the Bristol game and his effort at 2-1 against Wrexham is all you need to remember. It wasn’t great it was okay

No one has a clue how much waghorn and Kane are paid and if we are still contributing to those wages

You are completely right, none of us know what they are paid.

Oh what?


kane took a significant pay cut to come here

Kane must have been on 20k at QPR, I’m guessing we were paying at least 13-15k if he took a pay cut

I think it was a lot lower than that

Whilst he won't be a big miss in term of the impact he's had here, it leaves us very short for tomorrow. Walker has only just come back on grass and Godden is still injured, tavares also out for the rest of the season, and O'Hare too. That leaves us very short tomorrow with just Gyokeres and Palmer as recognised 'attacking' players. Granted we will bring in reinforcements, but it would have been good to get someone in before letting Waggy go.

It’s guesswork based on what we know. Kane is a player who has spent his whole career in the top 2 divisions.

its a reasonable assumption that high paying London club QPR were paying a significant wage - when we came in it was hardly likely he’s going to drop a significant portion of that. So he may have taken his wage cut, but it wouldn’t have been lower that what championship clubs pay on average and given we’re paying around 17/18m in wages I’d say it’s not far off 13-15k

But it's never that easy unfortunately. You have to take the opportunity when it arises. It's not like we would want to play two forwards tomorrow, especially when one never scores.

Absolutely - solid reasoning.

Let's not hate on Waghorn to much, think he was clearly a decent professional and a good player to have in the dressing room and training ground.

However the right decision to move him on, high wage and picks up too many injuries and when he does play hasn't produced enough.
Do we know how much of that wage we're still picking up? Applies to Kane as well.

We are getting rid of probably 12k a week. If we passed up on that opportunity now it may not come again. Its a no brainer to let him go given the opportunity even if no one comes in beforehand

There's no way Huddersfield are paying that though is there?

You'll never get anywhere on here with that sort of positivity.

Bloke never really had a chance from the off with some fans cause he wasn’t Max Biamou

Couldn’t knock his effort, just a signing that hasn’t worked out which happens at every football club from time to time, good luck to him
It is nice to see sensible posts like this get the most likes where as stupid ones slatting players get one or two from the usual bellend posters

Can't believe negativity? He's made 1 million from our club in 2 seasons. He's on half a million per goal..

Probably not. But given its a championship club I think it's reasonable to assume they are paying 75%? Best part of 150k for half a season
