ddot_m Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I didn't expect that. Quite the fan of Philliskirk, despite not having a position for him he still has cropped up with some vital goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 A £75,000 bid rejected for our top scorer because Blackpool wanted to pay in three instalments!!!!!!!!!!!!! The January fire sale is just round the corner. How much is the North Stand going to cost us if this is true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar Don't Scare Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I've got my keys in the ignition ready to drive him wherever he wants to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Would we have any points this season without him? One of our best players. Can usually tell how good somebody is by how many of our fans think he is ':censored:'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamoafc Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 He is one of our most consistent players. He really should be played up front he is a natural goal scorer. Yet we never see it in players. Hope we keep him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 If he goes it will be against his wishes....he was in the media recently saying he wanted to stay at Latics for a long long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 The only player that actually looks like scoring at the moment so I suppose in line with the boards decision making in 2015 it makes sense that we sell him for a paltry sum and bring in a loan player who will be crap.

adamoafc Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I sense I rendition of 'don't sell philliskirk, Danny philliskirk' being sung to the tune of achey breaky heart today ? Like Glossoplatic says his goals have gained us a fair few points. Without him no matter what any fans think we would be in worse trouble than we are now.

nzlatic Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 If he goes it will be against his wishes....he was in the media recently saying he wanted to stay at Latics for a long long time. Presumably he's our longest serving player. He puts a decent effort in whenever I've seen him and pops up with crucial goals every now and again. Given his attitude to the club he should be a favourite really in a depressing era of high player turnover and :censored: results but instead because he's not as technically gifted as Harkins he's labelled as :censored:e. We need money so we have to sell whoever gets bid for as long as the price is right, but it'd be a real shame for someone with an obvious affinity and family connections to the club to be one to go.

Doesn't surprise me, Probably earns one of the higher wages every month, The clubs 10 minutes from his house and his Dads a coach here.

deyres42 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 100k or thereabouts sounds about right to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L1onheartNew Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Given the importance of his goals, add another zero on and I will be happy to accept three installments. On the other hand, if the club are willing to accept that 75k is a fair assessment given our position, then I believe that that is a clear indication of our lack of ambition to get out of it.

the_mighty_bosh Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 This is a really strange one. I rate him but he's certainly not our best player. Yes he's our top scorer but he doesn't strike me as the type that would score for fun in a different set up like Murphy has, he's more of a player that will do a good job for the team first and chip in with a few goals second. I'm not convinced that the deal will go through either. I'd be surprised if Blackpool will offer him a much better deal than we can, it's not really a step up career wise for him as Blackpool will be a mess for as long as Oyston is in charge and the Philliskirks seem to have an affinity to our club. Danny is the type of player I could see being our longest serving player in a few years time, not strong or quick enough to make it at a higher level but enough technical ability, understanding of the game and versatility to be a good player at this level for a long time. From the club's point of view, I'm not sure that £75k is worth selling for. Unless Dunn has someone much better lined up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueatheart Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Presumably he's our longest serving player. Carl Winchester is our longest serving playing, made his senior debut in November 2010. DP came back in August '13. I hate January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluear Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 The main thing that worries me is that if they're happy to let a player go who dunn rates as being first name on team sheet for 75k, what will we sell players like kelly for? 25k?

Latics_Fanatic Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I don't think 75k is that far off the mark... Best of a bad bunch this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midsblue Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 If we sell then we've given up this season and our longstanding position in League 1 as relegation would be a certainty. We can't buy a goal and this lad has (A) the ability to score goals, ( the determination to score goals and © is in our budget to achieve A & B. We've got no budget to bring other players in, too many :censored:e players bloating our squad so this lad will be sacrificed to provide some wriggle room. January will be make or break for us as a club on a much grander scale than we have faced for a number of years....I'm genuinely worried.

L1onheartNew Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) the determination to score goalsIt is a shame that Philli is the only one. Everyone else has either forgotten how to show it or has completely given up. Edited December 28, 2015 by L1onheartNew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
