From FF ... re Diagouraga

 

Hi Guys

I was at the bees game last night. I've been told by a good source the deal is still ongoing

500k but add ons have scuppered it

Brentford want 250k after 50 games.

Dave is on £7.5k Basic

Rangers have offered £6k basic but 9k when back in top league

Latest from FF ( Sound Poster ), saying he should sign by the weekend.

 

'The big guy should sign this weekend. Brentford want him for Fridays game against Burnley. Will pm source.'

Don't know the poster but how can it make sense to want to keep a player for one game before you sell him? 1. If he's that important don't sell him.

2. What if he gets injured

3. If a player knows he's going can you expect him to perform?

Daniel Cousin put in his finest shift in a Rangers shirt the day before he left for Hull.

And what was the common response to that decision at the time?

Just for the record the goalscoring fetes of Jamie Vardy in the EPL played with Fleetwood when picked up after failing at Sheffield Wednesday. .. signs for 1m and people laughed at Leicester. . No so smart now eh? Banging them in all season.

 

Moral of the chit chat. (Sorry DB) don't turn your nose up at players from 'Accrington bloody Stanley' as put earlier In the thread. You never know and let's face it St Johnstone are mince and would probably loose to accrington bloody stanley

As said before there is no comparison between players who are excelling to players who are average or struggling. Vardy was £1m upfront £1.7m in total. How does that compare to players whos values are low and have achieved little in the lower leagues?

[blueflag 386]

1.7mil is a hell of a lot. Leicester were ridiculed when they paid that money for him..He wasn't exactly competing Messi when Fleetwood won the conference league that year. He only played 30 odd games , before that he was at Halifax and before that bloody Stockbridge park (who the fuck even is that?) For 3 seasons

 

I don't get your point really.

Some suggestions in the media we've had two low-ball offers for O'Halloran knocked back but may go back with another offer. It's said St Johnstone want around £600K for him.

 

Given what we paid for Templeton and now the expected fee for O'Halloran, it does show a big difference in what we can pay in the Scottish market's supposed top end compared to scouting the lower leagues in England. Are the likes of Waghorn really worth less than this lad?

... ain't it more like going in with a low-level bid for a chap probably worth 500k max, rather than giving St. Johnstone the impression that he is worth 800k to 1m from the off?
