Not if he coasts for the season.Look at the Blackburn guy Diaz

Been thinking this.Talk of him being irreplaceable, retiring his shirt number, best in 20 years etc is crazy.
Yes he was excellent from Dec to May, arguably the best in the division.
For the 18 months prior his form was patchy and frustrating with very poor discipline. He was frequently called a liability.
Hope he stays but seems unlikely and no guarantee he will continue as he finished last season.

I don't see why it wouldn't when injury cost one of his teammates a similar transfer.Injury risk is Occupational hazards and not going to influence his decision making
One up from the brittania, but even if that’s the case I don’t claim to stay in a lavish hotel, why would I?
What’s the saying the rich don’t stay rich by spending money on shit?

Well of course - thats why I once saw David and Victoria Beckham booking into an IBIS
Jordan paid a City steward £80 a few times to guard his car some souped up fancy sports model. Lot of money back then.Eddie Jordan used to stay at the Formula 1 in Cheylesmore when he came to watch his beloved Sky Blues

Isn’t that what you do with every single fucking player?
complete spanner, don’t know why I unmuted you, one of the most braindead people on this site.
If we could sign the best midfielder in the championship for £5 million pounds transfer fee you would be buzzing.
This is the kind of insight we come here for!!Heard there is absolutely no update to give

What is his value?I’ve always been of the opinion if he doesn’t sign a contract we have to sell but if the bids coming in are way below his value what do you do? Keep him for the year or sell him for say £6million?
No idea but I’m sure the club has a figure that if it’s met he will be soldWhat is his value?
how much is a player for 1 season worth, if they are one of the top players in the league
that must be around £3m + , so that means selling for £3m is like giving away for free
so you must be looking at £5m on top of that
While that is factually correct, it isn’t by any means the only potential outcome.because your retaining an asset that depreciates to zero value in less than a year
The thought that giving Hamer an enormous contract has no consequence beyond just that contract is myopic in extreme
If Simms is really on £25k Gus is worth £30k. Anyone complains then tell them to have the same impact. No one else is the squad is even close except perhaps Fadz, but he’s waning.
And if we didn’t win promotion and he walked away for nothing next summer it will have been financial incompetence on the clubs behalf. Look at Blackburn this summer …. Had they sold Diaz last summer for even £8-10m they would not be in the situation they are today.While that is factually correct, it isn’t by any means the only potential outcome.
His circumstances, hopes and ambitions could all significantly change in that time, like if he inspired us to a brilliant promotion for instance, would he be able to turn down a new contract ‘and with it the chance to lead this club into the Premier League, I’m sure in those circumstances the club would be happy to meet his ‘much higher’ wage demands.
And if the above happened and he then decided to leave for nothing, you would have to say it worked out well for both club and player.

I thought the wage cap was set at £19.000 p/w, I’m sure I’d read that somewhereNo one has a clue what Simms is on. Highly unlikely to be that much. It’s another figure plucked out the air by someone to suit a narrative
Well that’s the gamble isn’t it, usually I’d be dead against letting a player of value sit on his contract and leave for nothing, but in this case I’m tempted to think it could be the sensible option.And if we didn’t win promotion and he walked away for nothing next summer it will have been financial incompetence on the clubs behalf.

If an egg comes from a duck then a lemon drizzle is on the cardsIf Simms is really on £25k Gus is worth £30k.
I want to know what happened to Hamer wanting £20k, then £22k...? Next week, will he want £70k and that's ok?No one has a clue what Simms is on. Highly unlikely to be that much. It’s another figure plucked out the air by someone to suit a narrative
Been thinking this.
He had one season playing at that level and took a while to get there. MR and AV pushed him to that level. If he goes and we're able to throw £2-4m at a midfielder instead of £1-2m like we did with Hamer, we might find someone that can get to that level in less time. I don't think we'll find someone who's at that level from day one, though. Feel like you need £5-10m to get that.
Easy to be brave when it’s not your money. Football is awash with clubs in trouble because they were “brave” “very ambitious” “ rolled the dice”….Well that’s the gamble isn’t it, usually I’d be dead against letting a player of value sit on his contract and leave for nothing, but in this case I’m tempted to think it could be the sensible option.
Hamer is such a vital player to CCFC his importance really cannot be overstated, people say if he goes for £10m we can use that money to bring in 3 quality players ‘but only 11 can play at any one time and if we can’t find a replacement for Hamer of at least equal quality, we will be a poorer side for it.
With the players we’ve bought in so far and with a few more still to come, if Hamer were to commit to this season now I would honestly be very confident in the club achieving something really special this season.
Fortune favours the brave
i would think lot of players in the Premier League are not on 25K a week TBQH!No one has a clue what Simms is on. Highly unlikely to be that much. It’s another figure plucked out the air by someone to suit a narrative
Agreed that probably no one on here knows how much he earns (obviously he and the club do). Then you go and ruin it by declaring that you know it's not as high as previous poster said.No one has a clue what Simms is on. Highly unlikely to be that much. It’s another figure plucked out the air by someone to suit a narrative
You would be correct, if this was 2014.i would think lot of players in the Premier League are not on 25K a week TBQH!
