" If you want him, offer £2-3 million, ad maybe we would accept. " Unfortunately for you mate, your SKINT and in no place to haggle. So either get some money and sort your financial mess out of a club, or be prepared for players to leave for poor offers..............
Perhaps i'm missin something here but maybe you can explain to me why your club in its present financial stat , possibly looking at extinction is "relatively safe for another season" . coyb
I think that it is crazy to carry on with these transfer talks with Pompey! The simple fact is that the players do not want to leave Portsmouth as they have grown up at the club and obviously love it there. If we come along and rip them away then surely they won't give the desire, hunger and commitment to us in the same way. We should have moved on after the first bid was rejected and this will all end in tears if we try and sign these players against their will! MOVE ON JEWELL
I have wanted Jewell to move on for weeks..! JWM he is blinkered mate. I really don't think we are going to get anyone in in the next couple of days, why would anyone want to come here anyway.?
Exactly Hoppers We have been pissing about on these Pompey lads who clearly don't want to come here and we will end up with another cast off! I can see all the excuses being prepared right now!
Cant see that there will be any excuses, we all knew it was a no go 2 weeks ago but we lived in hope!! I too can't see us getting the necessary players in, other than loanees!! For me, Jewell must stay as the window is nearly over now and there is no point bringing anyone else in, end of season though...... FOJ!!!
Spanish I kind of understand where your coming from in terms of not sacking Jewell now but if we continue with this relegation form I cant see any other alternative. If we get stuffed on Tuesday night he must be sacked Wednesday morning and nothing else will really do!
Seems the Pompey clowns love our board at the minute. Yawn Also - Pearce is hardly going to go from £400,000 or whatever it is you paid for him, to being worth £3 million alone in a club riddled with debt. Deluded - yes, yes you are !
We got him for £500,000 but that included a 50% sell on clause, so his real value was £1million. He has improved greatly & now has Championship experience so you're looking at £2million at least for him. Joel Ward has plenty of experience in the champ & even a little PL experience. He's got his best years ahead of him, so £1-£1.5million for his is fair. Similar thing with Henderson. Either stump up £5 million or give us 3 players that will actually be of use. If not, look elsewhere, because selling players & getting relegated makes absolutely no business sense.
and here in lies your problem pompey fans. your club has been screwed too many times to mention, its been run badly by numerous people. a players value is irrelevant in your situation. you can't ask ipswich to pay silly money for a player or three when if you don't sell them you go to the wall. of course it isn't what you want to hear and the morality of what ipswich are doing is bordering somewhere between nasty and cheeky (though they too have been in the same situation where they had to sell all their players for peanuts) but it is irrelevant to pompey. they have to sell or go bust. which would you rather?
