edhunteruk Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Good post fella - spot on - i'm no Football chairman, and as has been said on this very thread, it's very easy to post on here what a good price is, without the pressure & drain of actually bankrolling the football club BUT, in the current transfer market, we need to be holding out for the best possible deal for both of these lads (if we are looking at cashing in at all.) Paltry (in the current climate) bids of less than 400k for either should be dismissed with the disdain they deserve by TTA, we need to be looking at 750k - 1million for Taylor for him to leave & 1million - 1.5million for Eardley to leave us. We are in no rush; contract wise to sell as both are long term contracts, so the quick Trotman sale doesn't apply to these two - and i fear a big, big backlash for thre club if they do sell 1 or both for a 'poor' fee - when all the noises coming out of the club from the management team are that we building for a big promotion push. instead of putting a price on there heads as such.....how much would it cost to buy a ready made replacement for either position..... yes we have lomax n rubes who can play rb.....but ready made replacemetns with league one or higher experience are not cheap...... the last thing you really want to do in a season were your pushing for promotion is sell two good players and replace them with untried kids or minimum experience players...... then again the tta's could come out and say if we sold taylor and eardly we could have paul scholes for 3 years...what would you want????lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
