    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    I believe at the time it was £700k Dann, £350k Fox and add ons and sell ons. You asked if we’d paid more than £750k for a defender since Ward. I’ll stand by that we ended up paying Walsall more than that for Dann. I’ve answered your question

    https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/transfer-news/coventry-city-transfer-scott-dann-21088824.amp They say over 1m. I’ve no idea. It was undisclosed. I’ve answered your question.

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    Can’t see why we’d put JCS in our books with him not being our contracted player. Nitpicking aside, his contract is nearly up. If he extends, would you advocate paying £750k for him? If he doesn’t, would you advocate a hefty signing on fee (for illustration purposes £750k) having in mind he...

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    As originally stated, Kane isn’t / wasn’t worth anything like £13m. My semi-satirical point is that SUFC overpay for average players.

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    Normally I’d agree. But we are talking Sheff Utd. I saw Ollie McBurnie play and I’ve seen his stats. I’ve seen his fee. Case closed.

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    We got Julian Gray at 27 for nothing. Sold him (he has gone) for £500k I think. These things happen. (Gray’s gone)

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    Hull had Kane on loan so might be interested. Apparently, he claims to have been subject to a £13m bid from SUFC (who aren’t a better club based on Saturday) https://www.westlondonsport.com/qpr/qpr-set-to-axe-todd-kane-and-bring-in-right-back/amp He’s not worth £13m. Obviously. 5% of that...

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    I didn’t put a value against Tavares. Jamie Allen £750k? Not delusional IMO. Rose? Name a better CD we could get for less that £750k? Go….

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    All values are based on nothing besides sentiment and conjecture. With regards to Kane, Length of contract is key. Kane was also out of favour having spoken out. Manager wasn’t going to play him much and his contract was running down, ending 2022 July. Different story now. Hamer and...

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    Ignore the laughing from the usual merkins on here. I think your point that the squad has a greater value than £14m is valid. Some may have differing opinions on the individual values, eg, Godden 2m is beyond what I think (30+ year olds don’t command high fees normally) but as I said, there...

    £14.8 million - combined squad value

    Hyam, Kane, Rose, Allen £750k each? Moore £500k? Youngsters, Shipley, Bidwell etc £500k combined? Maybe.

    I’ll have a go: Gus £7.5m COH £7.5m Gyok £8m Sheaf £1m Dabo £2m Others combined £4m £30m?

    JCS contract position following the sanctions?

    SISU Should: (As a specialist is buying distressed debt) -Buy Chelsea via a covert investment arm. -send us all their decent back up players plus one or two more. -end up owning 2 Premiership clubs. -sell both for a combined profit. (Satire - maybe)

    Match Thread Sheff Utd (H) 12/03/22

    The “game management” shithousery needs to be looked at. Opposition players going down with cramp in the final minutes: get a stretcher on. Put a rule of 15 seconds to take a throw in, 15 seconds from when the ball is out back into the penalty area to take a goal kick. 30 seconds for a free...

    I’d have a bet that Tavares would have had better likelihood to score. I do hope that Goal diff doesn’t come into it at end of season and I’d wager that there is a difference in appearance fees and number of games played bonus between the Waghorn and Tavares. That said, I would no way...
