January Transfer Window Thread 2020

[Ricey]

How ever you word it, you want players to sign a two year contract move to the area and perhaps move families and schools etc. Then if they are up to your standards they should sign another contract even if they have abetter option elsewhere.

However, even if they are a good player and very professional. If the team don't do well, you want them cleared out (what ever that means)...Even halfway through a season. Will you pay the 6 months rent they will owe etc.?.....Even if the ir injured you want the same?

All lower league clubs sign most of their players when they are out of contract.....Saves us a fortune in transfers and fees and part of the modern game.

So why you feel the need to slag Lyle Taylor? We would have been happy to sign him that way....the same way we did with Cox or Hopper.

If Charlton want to keep him they could.

Slagged Taylor, have a day off! I just said we dodged a bullet after what was said about his reasons. I haven’t slagged him off. You love changing peoples posts to suit your agenda.

Anyway enough of this off topic, let’s get back to it. If you wish to carry this conversation on send me a private message and I’ll ignore it

This isn't a "normal" situation, we are actually dying as a club and some brutal decisions need to be made. Loyalty to this bunch of perennial under-performers should not be top of our list at the moment in my opinion. Pay them off, ship them out, get rid....it really matters not.

With what ? Many of the contracts are up at the end of the season anyway. What is the benefit of spending money we haven't got on this season's squad ?

 

[Smudger]

Of course if we don't have any money then this option is not available but if there is a deal to be done to get them out faster without paying the contract up in full (they get the benefit of a lump of cash and the chance to move on and keep playing....) then why not? Most of the current bunch are a total negative...absolutely zero use to us unless we want to continue losing almost every game.

 

[Westcliff DGS]

Paying them up is all well and good, but that impacts the FFP and then you still have to replace them, that would cost even more.

Doesnt make sense to me, could immediately be in an even bigger hole than the club is already

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

anyway back to the 6 coming in, any ideas?

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Nope, I'm guessing only if the loanee clubs pay them, as long as we play them...

 

[Boreham Blue]

Disappointing that this far into the thread we’ve not really even had any potential suggestions beyond the signing we were making from Wycombe last week and some interest in a Macclesfield player.

 

[Westcliff DGS]

neither of which, as yet, have come through

 

[LCBB72]

anyway back to the 6 coming in, any ideas?

And who's Hugh? What's he done with the other Pugh brother?

Bailiffs?

There were some Macc players who we were going to sign as they were fed up with not being paid.

The irony given the last few days

We will get them all on the last day when every other club in the land has failed to sign them.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

We will get them all on the last day when every other club in the land has (doesn't want to sign them) failed to sign them.

Edited for reality

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

If any Macclesfield players want to leave they could go to Daggers where the previous manager has gone.

 

[Leigh_Seasider]

Have we looked at the Scottish leagues? (Joke, before anyone chucks things at me)

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

........And the winger from Walsall who was out of contract this month, who once again hasn't materialised.

Signed an 18 month extension at Walsall, so, if we were interested, we missed out. Surprising stuff really.

We are waiting for a few to leave, so we can resign them on lower wages.
