Tom Eaves hits the onion bag


Recommended Posts

For GOD SAKE LATICS keep HOLD OF EAVES!!

 

I am sick to the back teeth of every other promising wonder player from our league go for 1 million whilst we're there going '300k oldham?' 'oooh 300k yes please'

 

Keep hold of him and he will be our ticket out of this division once we get smalley, taylor and everyone fit and on form in the same side.

 

Christ, Maynard at crewe had a good 6 months, then was injured for a year, came back and had another good 2 month spell then crewe sold him for £2.25M!!!

 

Keep him for 2 years, let him bang in his goals, then finally get what we deserve and do a Hooper and sell for £2.4M

 

750k now then yes maybe we have to sell and its not a bad offer as things stand at the moment + a sell on, but for god sake dont crumble under the 'little oldham we-have to accept-anything-we-can-get' mindset again!!

 

Bit of perspective please, Maynard scored 32 goals from 52 starts at Crewe, Simon Cox 35 from 62. Thats the reason why other clubs get good fees.

What seems to have been overlooked is that this 5 year deal might have more clauses in it than a Santa convention. Minimum fee, bigger club, non-promotion....

 

We might have no choice but to let Eaves go for £150,000 if a clause is activated.

 

 

Im guessing its higher than £150,000 as we have reportedly turned down £200,000

Who was the last decent striker under contract we let go for less than his real value?

Probably Frank Large in the 60s. So don't talk nonsense.

I wonder what would have happened if Latics had sold Andy Ritchie just one year after buying him in 1987 ?

You sell your family silver at the right time, until then hang on to it.

Maybe, just maybe, I was a bit hasty in saying he will end up in Stalybridge.

There's plenty of time yet, but clearly your words wer pinned on the dressing room wall and just the motivaton he needed. :grin:

At the moment he's done nowt.

But you gotta hope he really kicks on and becomes another ledge for us.
