Tommy Watson ( ...off to Brighton)

[Cox Green Fc]

As much as I like him , we can’t expect big money for someone who’s played a handful of senior games

 

[As You Were]

I also think he'll play ahead of mundle in no time at all, providing he stays.

He didn’t look ready when he first came in first team but when he got injured was starting to look excellent. Mundles form had dropped off too

Watson Isn’t 8 anymore he’s 18 and football is his career.

Like I say the fact his contract has 18 months left shows he’s hedging his bets. Rightly so as well.

18 months is long enough at his age. I'm 48 not 8 and my mind hasn't changed how I'd be. Each to their own

How often is Romano wrong?

I think he is this time

So we don't sell him then.

Yes but my point is that noone will pay the fees people are thinking. I don't think he will be sold. But if the player happened to say I'd like to go or I'm not signing another contract (hypothetical) there's no way it would be north of 10mil and we wouldn't want to lose value by letting him see his contract out

At his age, we'd get a canny tribunal fee and add one wouldn't we?

[Hendon hotspurs]

Is he?

I think Watson is absolute quality. What you have seen in the few games he has played is just a microcosm of what he has done in the u18s and 21s. He just has it all and tons of final product. I’ll be really disappointed if he leaves.

 

[Hendon hotspurs]

Cracking way to get the contract you want. #just #saying

By creating a bid that doesn't exist??? I'm sure the club would know if Brighton had been in contact. Unless you mean he has very good negotiation power now?

 

[HorsePills]

Plenty of players go for decent money despite not playing many games by the way. These lads are watched all the way through the system.

If we wouldn't sell with 24 months on his contract before he'd made his debut why would his contract be a reason to sell now. It means nowt. If anything if he wanted the move he would have pushed for it in the summer. Now he's found himself in the first team he'll be offered a much improved deal.

 

[Rip Van Fish]

Personally disagree, I thought bundles form was dipping before his injury. I’m not saying he usurps him for sure, but I also don’t think that Watson is being told it’s not his time yet. I think they’re in close competition for the place

Agree with that mate

and you know this how ?

 

[Hendon hotspurs]

We turned down 2m before the lad even started a game in the summer, can't see Brighton coming back with 8 figures given we've got another 6 months to negotiate his contract and the lad doesn't know what division we will be in

More than that

 

[Dan The Man]

At the minute? No he won't man

He’ll be on the bench and get game time

 

[Hendon hotspurs]

I believe he's an advisor, not an agent. According to posts on here Watson is also in a relationship with Harte's daughter.

Ian harte isn't he's agent, you'd never guess who is, he's a bigger cock than harte if that's possible

 

[Dan The Man]

God knows why folk can’t express opinions all civil like, ya prick!

Cock off man

 

[Fletch]

Why would they sign a player who is injured ??

 

[Hendon hotspurs]

On a really exciting 18 year old? Who said he's been offered a contract. Please don't spout shit you know nothing about

nowhere near the disaster some are proclaiming he had a brief decent spell but if he wants leave and won’t sign a new deal we may as well cash in

 

[Toothless]

Thowt that was another player there
