How Much Is That Doggy In The Window ?

How much do you think we will/should get for Lines and Kuffour?

In both cases I think the advantage in any bargaining will be with the buying clubs.
They will know that we have brought a lot of players in, and their wage bills will need to be paid.

Also, although Buckle has said all the right things about their attitude since he arrived, it's obvious that they don't feature in his plans. Other clubs will see that we have considerably strengthened our attacking options, and have beefed up the midfield.

So I reckon if we get anything between £50,000 and £100,000 for Lines, and between £40,000 and £75,000 for Kuffour we'll be doing well.
I wouldn't be surprised though if they went for less just to lighten the wage bill.

 

I think Lines will be going for £100,000 if rumours are anything to go by, its definately a six figure sum. Dunno about Kuffour, depends on who is looking at it, if anyone. Im sure I heard somewhere that he is only interested in going to a club in London? If this is the case I can only really imagine someone like Brentford going for him. I wouldnt want him to go as I do think he can offer another option, and as well know, on his day he can be a real problem for CB's in the league above let alone league two. If he does go, I imagine it would be for about £50,000

 

I think £70K or so was mentioned for Lines.

 

Where u bin oldboy...I noticed you missing even if no-one else did!!

point still stands.
you said "Don't worry about the money boys,you'll never see it,you didn't get any of the Hoskins bounty". oh yes we did
you said "Anyway you only sign freebees". oh no we dont

again, 1 day you will learn? its never too late to teach an old dog new tricks

 

some free transfers are extremely good transfers. hoskins as example was a free transfer which was very good business indeed.

now the £900,000 plus as you say which we got for hoskins, would of been spent on compo in getting buckle and his staff he has brought in, signing on fees for 13 players and agent fees for them which as we all know aint cheap. used on paying off trollope, hinton, patterson and blizzard. that all costed money. no doubt that the hoskins money have nearly gone. we will sign michael boateng who is on trial which will be more money on signing on fee and agent fee.

then selling lines to palace for a 6 figure sum (about £150,000 my guess) and kuffour on his way out as well for about £70-80,000 will free up money for urgent loans if needed and signings in jan to bolster our promotion push

 

quote from a different thread:-

you like you team of trialist as well dont you

 

you still had trialists playing

14 signings so far but buckle has announced will offer boateng a contract so 'could' be 15. we got rid of 17 players end of the season then sold hoskins, then told blizzard to do 1. 19 out and 14/15 in. better quality in. just lines and kuffour to go and were ready to go

i remember last season in pre-season. we lost to bath and you on 606 was wumming us about it. you have lost to charlton and torquay

 

course i did mention it, straight after you mentioned our pre-season defeat

you only stayed up as there were worse clubs than you

 

The man is a top class plank -

'you only stayed up as there were worse clubs than you'..

how may clubs were worse than your lot not very many as you finished 22 out of 24 oh my sides

 

there were a lot more worse clubs than us. what cost us was flipping akinde up front
