His contract also is up at the end of next season so that would be the most they would contribute for next season so its unlikely he will be a reserve back up player
If he was on 20k a week, that's £1m a year. if Bristol paid half, that's still 500k a year to us in wages.
Edit: f it's a 3 year deal. they will only support for one year. I'd presume his wages would then drop after the first year? No idea - just guessing.
The forward we have been working on for a while , think it’s discussions with parent club , not sure if Waghorn and Walker not moving on yet could stall thisAnything else close @Skybluebeliever?

Palmer only seems to have started 1 match for Bristol last season?
Still in the balance with JCS? Andy Turner's article yesterday read to me like the club seem confident.The forward we have been working on for a while , think it’s discussions with parent club , not sure if Waghorn and Walker not moving on yet could stall this

Do you hear about every signing we are trying to make or making? Or are there ones you never hear about until they are announced by the club?The forward we have been working on for a while , think it’s discussions with parent club , not sure if Waghorn and Walker not moving on yet could stall this

The Palmer problem
Interesting article in the BP about Palmer's contract situation, and the wider issue of the handful of players (Wells, Bents, Kalas, JD) on very high wages. The point about the impact of losing Afobe to injury, just after he and Palmer had struck up a partnership, is well made. I genuinely believ...www.otib.co.uk
Palmer last 6 year stats (since he started playing in the Championship):
16/17: 24 appearances, 4 goals, 3 assists
17/18: 15 appearances, 2 goals, 1 assist
18/19: 29 appearances, 3 goals, 1 assist
19/20: 25 appearances, 1 goal, 3 assists
20/21: 35 appearances, 3 goals, 2 assists
21/22: 6 appearances, 1 goal , 0 assists
Total: 134 appearances, 14 goals, 10 assists
I'm not trying to be a pantomime villain here, but these stats are appalling. Are we just getting excited that we are making a signing, or am I missing something? Genuine question and not looking to be negative for no reason. I am just looking at this and it doesn't make sense to me. It is widely agreed that O'Hare offers a lot overall to the team, but his stats are regarded as too low and we need more product from an AM, isn't it? Palmer's stats are probably even lower depending on how you match up the analysis, and that is over six seasons playing in the Championship. Obviously I hope he does well here, and he will have my full support, but to be as polite as possible I'm a bit baffled and sadly underwhelmed by this, especially given that he will in all likelihood be a top earner.

Most people on there think he’s a decent player who didn’t fit the system

Because I dont believe the stats are accurate, and I'm going off what his stats are and also the clips I've seen of him admittedly a short set of clips, but he appears to player deeper than a number ten, and plays similar types of passes to Hamer.How could he possibly be a replacement for Hamer when he has played 2 games in central midfield in his entire career according to stats posted above?

There’s a general view he preferred to stay and not play to collect his wages
Found your new boo boy then G!lol

Very true, but you would think number 10s /CAMs are like goal dust, so if he was exceptional in that position he would he played there rather than out of position?Maybe that's why his stats are "average". If he been playing more deep in a central pairing, then his attacking stats may not appear great. If MR is signing him as a 10 or CAM, he'll have more license to improve those stats with us.

Ideally sell them both but a loan is more likely with the wages they are onAre Waghorn and Walker likely to be loans out?

In the championship
17/18 15 apps 2 goals
18/19 29 apps 3 goals
19/20 25 apps 1 goal
20/21 35 apps 3 goals
21/22 6 apps 1 goal
That worries me for a a number 10 in a midfield that already doesn't chip in with enough goals.

The problem with getting the striker are the clauses the parent company wish to put in
With 5 strikers already on the books we need to shift some or have something in the pipeline before committing to clauses
Think MR would be very keen on JCS , it looked unlikely but a few things have changedStill in the balance with JCS? Andy Turner's article yesterday read to me like the club seem confident.
And Blackburn, Derby, Swansea and huddlesfield? Those stats were across all those clubs. I honestly don't remember seeing him play so I'm not entirely sure. I wouldn't believe transfermarkt stats particularly.Maybe Bristol dont play with 10s or CAM. Just 2 central midfielders? So they've tried to squeeze him into a formation that doesn't work for him.

They have 2/3 options on CB also unsure if Fadz will commit as he wants an improved contract
A lot on holiday at the moment and return this week so could see developments next week
Assuming the striker is a premier league loan?Ideally sell them both but a loan is more likely with the wages they are on
