smetrov Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Whilst it would be a surprise if he signed a new deal right now, his reported rejection gives some perspective to the sort of abyss will will be staring into come May. Randy and Faulkner just don't have a clue what they are doing. The only loose sort of plan seems to be to cut back on wages .....and to keep cutting back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 they should have tried signing him up from liverpool game but those idiots wait until we are in the bottom three before offering him a new deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Burgundy Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Standard negotiation tactics - nothing to be worried about unless we go down, then he will no doubt be off as he is way too good for the championship. We are a tin pot two bob club now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelle Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Wait a minute, didn't I see a link to the mirror after that little article? I thought they were on of the less believable papers in England. Are we suddenly taking all they write as gospel? Or has this been reported elsewhere from more creditable sources?

LondonLax Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 He will keep rejecting the terms over and over until the end of the season. He is not going to sign anything until he knows we are safe. If he signs now and we go down it will **** up his chances of getting a move to a premiership club next season.

Jon Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 He will wait to see if we are relegated first. Yep. Also, he has 18 months left. If he does decide not to re-sign when/if we go down, then we could do worse than keep hold of him for further 12 months to help us get back up, then offer him far better terms as a PL player.

He will be able to sign a precontract agreement with another club next January. I think we will probably try and cash in if he only has 12 months left in the summer.

AValon Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Standard practice. If Lerner has any sense he'll give the lad a good contract and that will be that. Of course, relegation would obviously move those particular goalposts, but lets not go there just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be left to his stooge Faulkner, and we all know what an amazing job he is doing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. However, his agent will now be fully aware of what other clubs will be willing to offer him,which could just turn his head. Thats not him being mercenary, just human.

Jimzk5 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) Whoever said he gets to sign a pre contract with another club next Jan, that only applies to foreign clubs and if he leaves on a free I think we will be due compensation anyway as he is from our academy, it wont be what his worth mind but the compo will be set by a tribunal to determine how much it cost us to develope him. His easily worth double the 15k his apparently on now,I very much doubt his on that btw as he wasnt even in the first team when he signed this contract 18 months ago, he was on loan at watford at the time 5k with a few bonuses mayby......

chappy Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 If we go down, Weimann will likely have at least a few premiership clubs willing to pick him up. He is young and has potential. He would probably bag 10-15 goals with a decent midfield behind him. Well seeing as this season he has already bagged ten in front of (and often as a part of) our midfield I'm sure he could!
