Cal Sold to Aberdeen

[matt_magpie]

Wootton is going to be a bigger loss than people realise he scored 20 goals and was never injured.

Roberts is one of our better players but better players always will have more options to move.

All this talk of blaming the owners "model" is daft if we had what you would call traditional owners your best players would still be sold as that is how it is at all levels.

Exactly, the only club perhaps not in that bracket is Wrexham as if you’re going to sign players in their late 20s early 30s and stick them on 5k a week on a 3 year deal, absolutely nobody is going to go for them and their not going to leave anyway as they can’t get the wages elsewhere.

We have lost nearly 50% of goals from last season, got to hope Langstaff and Scott are fully firing

Inevitable with the last year on his deal. He's wanted to go for a while. Would rather he left than Reuben. Mainly as we have struggled to fit Cal into our system to get the best out of him.

Him being sold makes it easier rather than shoehorning him into a system to the detriment of the team and also him. He served us well and lit up Meadow Lane on numerous occasions. Time for players like Nemane to take the opportunity and stake a claim.

Do you not understand the term UNDISCLOSED FEE?

Why post a made up figure for the transfer fee just because you're not happy about Cal leaving ?

Well it was a figure I saw, 75k plus 75k add ons, sounds plausible as many deals are structured with add ons and with a year left on his contract the general consensus seems to be we think we’ve got over 100k, maybe it’s wrong how it’s structured but it’s seems pretty close overall to what seems likely.
I’m not posting it because I’m unhappy with Cal going or the owners strategy but kind of feels, well at least to me a bit deflating. We’ve lost a player in my eyes could command 300k plus and we’re left with a incoming fee where we probably can’t bring in a guaranteed player of his ability.

Hopefully we did get £300k. As far as I can see nobody seems to have an accurate leaked figure from inside either club. The statement from the board did point out that Aberdeen had met their valuation. Maybe we'll never know but I trust the club under this regime to do the right thing.

Hope so Swale as I want the model to work for the owners and the club, Leigh Curtis believed it to be over 100k, I know he's not the fountain of knowledge but he's a journalist in the public domain and has to keep some type of credibility so I doubt he would post a figure far off. Clubs financially are still recovering from Covid so less cash about and more players seem willing to run their contracts down means together a lot lower transfer fees across the board.

Is any Notts player worth 300k plus in his final year of his contract?

[durhampie]

On today's rediculous transfer fees, then I would say yes....

Are you suggesting Ruben da Rocha Rodriguez is?

Notts County teams play better with Calgon 😁
