God that would be massivecan we just not have 1 big striker thread
Is your favourite band Simple Minds? They are not the only scenarios.
Scenario 4 we raise the threshold and every bugger demands some
Scenario 5 he refuses any because he wants to go to Stoke or rangers
Scenario 6 we pay him a fortune and he’s never available through injury
We are losing money weekly. People seem to think we are hoarding money away. Look at the accountsWe are averaging the largest gates in the Championship . Better than some Prem. teams. Yet we cannot afford modest outlays for quality. What am i missing ?The cash is coming in ,the crowd want success and are saying as much with the ticket sales. Don't throw away an oportunity to build on this.HTL .
More than the income.What is the running cost of the club for a year Including players wages?
Other than the parachute clubs we'll have the biggest revenue in the league.Cost / funding is definitely an issue. Whether we are being sensible and everyone else is nuts we’ll find out over time. Other than the parachutes can’t imagine we are bringing in less than competitors in this division.
We also probably spend more than everyone else on transfer fees except the parachute clubs and those who sell players for a big feeOther than the parachute clubs we'll have the biggest revenue in the league.

We also recouped 700k for the lad that went to Chelsea
It's ridiculous how much the parachute clubs skew the league mind.Possibly.
Just what I read online earlier. We were getting 700k and it was going on transfer fees.Not sure if that comes in one lump mind. You can chop 200k of it for our 6th choice cam signing fee straight off the bat. Rest'll have paid for the uptick in the new contracts.
We need that 8 figure money.
You’d like to think we aren’t the only club in world football how gets fleeced over a fee when a player moves to SaudiBest way to change the funding is to make a sale.
Agree on all thatFair comment though may depend on who is ‘valuing’ the players opposed to what funds are available.
I’d also add the caveat that if it does get to the end of the window and we don’t have a striker (I don’t think this will happen fwiw) and Speakman comes out and says there was none available but we don’t need one anyway because we have O’Nien or someone, then he’s making a rod for his own back.

It's the wage flexibility that needs changing too. A sale wouldn't change that. We have a top striker and won't pay him. We also can't pay what it takes to bring in a top striker. Something has to give.Best way to change the funding is to make a sale.

Until he proves his long term fitness I wouldn’t offer him an extension. I’m not going to say I wouldn’t want him back in the line up but we held our own without him last season. As it stands he doesn’t really have any bargaining power until fit.Ross Stewart:
Scenario 1 Someone comes in for him in Aug with a low bid, we accept it and he has gone.
Scenario 2 He returns from injury in Sept hopefully plays the remainder of the season, but he refuses to sign the contract bring offered and leaves the club on a free at the end of the season.
Scenario 3 We pay for me the best CF in the Division the difference in what he wants to what the club have offered. He is now under contract, he scores goals, if he leaves in the Summer any club wanting him will have to pay a significant fee for him, or we keep him.
In summary not giving him a new contract will mean we will lose him for nothing. Stewart is a class act get him fit motivated and we might get in the play offs.
Pleased someone's finally had the guts to highlight the striker situation.
