Vive_La_Villa Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I hope this puts an end to the cry’s of ‘Newcastle are more desirable than us’ Damn right they are if they offering 5 year contracts to 28 year olds with horrendous injury records! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share Posted September 7, 2020 1 minute ago, RichiBoi11 said: Whilst I agree with this I don't see a majority of these moving on. Hause, Elmo, Taylor, El Ghazt and Trez I'm almost certain will be part of the squad next season. The rest I think we'll struggle to shift. We might be able to get Jota out on loan, but I seriously doubt anyone would take on Lansbury's wages, or Hogan's, and Kalinic seems to have fallen off the planet. Nyland will probably see his contract out so it only leaves Samatta out of that list where we could realistically make money, and I doubt he'd be sold until we have at least 1 new striker in. Sadly I don't think we're going to be able to use sales to subsidise recruitment. Me neither really. But with a 25 man squad and us already having more than 25 and needing new additions we'll have to sort something out on loan at least. We are better off paying a portion of the wages for players out on loan than having them around not registered to play apart from the odd cup game. We will be forced to take a L on some of these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as expected and why I didn't want us to go for him. 4-5 year deal at his age with those injuries and I¨'m guessing big wages. No thanks. we gotta be smarter than that this time. Yeah if he scores the goal that keeps them up it will be worth it bla bla bla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is on tenterhooks and second guessing any cryptic clue posted for effect on twitter. This is one of the downfalls of social media I imagine there’s realistically only a handful of people who genuinely know our transfer business and I wouldn’t expect them to be shouting their mouths off on social media about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 If a 4+ year deal is what Wilson was after then I’m over the moon that we didn’t get him. A 3-year deal on modest wages (60k ish) is the very most I would want us to offer him. I don’t think he’s as crocked as many people make out, but 4 years with a 5th option is a big gamble on him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I'm glad Callum Wilson hasn't signed for us... yet, at the same time, I think he'll do well at Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 5yr deal - . Those Newcastle fans that think he chose them over us for footballing reasons - LOL. Massive gamble. As I said before, one more knee injury and he’s finished. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoFantastico Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 4 year deal? That seems a bit crazy and surprising really that they offered him such a long contract. Guess if Toon are willing to offer such contracts it makes sense Wilson would want in on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
