Russell Martin has Ross Stewart as his main target **Transfer confirmed **

Just look at what's happening to spurs on a larger scale. Lose their best player/striker and haven't got the time to bring anyone in
This will happen to us. If we go up with his goals and he leaves why does that matter
Selling to a direct rival cheap is shooting ourselves in the foot

We aren't getting promoted with or without stewart like.
 
I suppose it’s all about how confident folks are of being promoted and Stewart’s performance/ injury concerns. If he scores say 20 goals this season, who every has him and pays say 5-10m he will be seen as a bargain even if he’s crocked thereafter. Same could be said if he scored that many here, got us to promotion and left for free, would still be good value

As it stands I’d be happy with £7.5m upfront for him. IF we sign the Ukrainian and another CF.

Agreed. That's the best we can make.of a situation.

Laughable for anybody to think we can be hard or hold any cards when he's off for free in 10 months and the whole world knows it. Couple that with he's played 11 games in about a year and a Half.

People are deluded.

If we did that by the time the move gets done for Stewart it would leave us probably about a day to sign a replacement.

They’ve had months to sort this out I’ve got no confidence whatsoever they could do it in a day, even with extra money in the kitty.

Our issue last season wasn't scoring goals. I'm not saying we don't need a striker before anyone accuses me of that, but we largely scored at will, even without Stewart.

The main thing that hindered our promotion hopes in the end was the defensive injuries.

Even one of Ballard or Batth back there for the ties against Luton and we likely progress to Wembley. If both were fit, there's little doubt IMO.

To have no Ballard, Batth and Alese who obviously wasn't fit or near ready when he made an appearance for the second leg and subsequently re-injured himself as a result, was the main issue.

I'd like to think they plan for different situations mind
 
Would have been nice to get this done early in the window so we could have had a few million to go after our main transfer targets instead of it going through on the final day
