fraid so Phil , a cock up of the highest order the other ayew is wanted in turkey and their skint so have him back or we take a big loss , but as Jenkins wrote in programme notes , they had to sell in the summer to be able to go straight back up that's plans working as well
Well apparently we are after Lawrence Shankland of Ayr. We have had a 200k bid plus extras turned down. The lad is 23, if I was at Ayr I’d turn it down as well, that’s a bit of a piss take.
Ayr are no better than the welsh league teams......But scoring 28 goals so far then you have to take a look......Trundle paid off and maybe Shankland may.
I can tell you a story of my boys mate. Played with a lad at Pompey and a real good forward player score goals for fun. Got released and now playing at Baisingstoke. Last year they turned down a bid of 32k from Havant for him, they wanted 70k (the lads 19 at the time) he recently went to Sheffield Wednesday and they wanted to take him, they then want 230k for him, which Wednesday baulk at and say no. Then s month ago he goes to Sunderland and spend two week with them and again they want him, and they then quote wanting 175k, again they answer back is no. So if you don’t meet the valuation nothing happens. This poor kid had had his dreams of being a pro player ruined unless they meet the clubs valuations.
Look,football is riddled with its not what you know but who you know. We all know that. I could tell you do many stories of the same thing.
Interesting that the price went up as the club got bigger. (Or the league position!) Or is it time as the player improves?
It is, all down to greed on the end. If they had asked a reasonable price for him, then the usual add on’s for making the grade then that’s the way it should be. Hell he could go there and be a flop, but he could make the grade. At the moment his contract is being run down and the less chance for him to stay there. Hell they only pay the lad around £100 week plus expenses.
Our first new signing sorted https://www.westerntelegraph.co.uk/...leaves-haverfordwest-due-to-work-commitments/
I'm sure Leon could contribute in some way , he finished far too early imo I watched Tateys testimonial and the best player on the night for us was Andy Robinson , he's a player I wish could turn back the clock
