We got nothing for Paterson (other than dev fee) and Nicholson and Rangers bid 300k for Walker. With respect, they are all far better players than this lad and have showed it at a higher level. I don't think 50k is far off the mark in terms of valuation although I get the points made here regarding promotion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got nothing for Patterson because his contract expired, I guarantee you would have wanted a good fee had Cardiff come calling when he was under contract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Callachan not free to sign a pre contract in January? That lowers the value of a player I'm afraid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Romanov Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) He is, that's why Rangers have bid 300k We valued him at 1 mil to try and scare Rangers off and get him to sign a new deal, didn't work and now we have an unhappy player on our hands and will probably sell for a lot lower than we value him. 50k for a player in his last year at aa low level is about right. Has anyone gone for 100k or anything close to it in this league this season? Edited August 30, 2017 by Mr Romanov 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Starko Rover Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I don't know, I doubt it but if it's good enough for your board to jack up the fee of a player they want to keep to try and get a great deal then it should be good enough for ours to try and do the same, you might be right in 50k being right but then 300k is about right for Walker as he's in exactly the same contact scenario. Yet your board refused while our board appear to have accepted, i'm sure your fans would have wanted more for Walker and been disappointed you let Sevco have him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of tht day if a player is under contract you can charge what you want but im sure old Maggie would want top dollar for one of your players so why shouldn't we do the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I know Hearts will say it's a value well over what we're asking for, but he's a key player to a team who need promotion. It'd be a big blow to us to lose him, especially given the prize money at Championship level compared to what we'll receive at this level. Wouldn't surprise me if we end up selling for a fee, and try to get in Herron. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Ooft, the state of that programme! The "Not playing in the UEFA Cup" banter is top notch and if the guy got sacked for that then that's poor. The rest thoigh, with that weight and height stuff? Classic #weeteam mentality I'm afraid. [emoji14] Even Airdrie got £40K for Andy fucking Ryan Always amazes me how fans of one team know exactly how another one spends their money. A couple of points though; - the figure, while undisclosed, has been estimated more in the £20-25k range from people at Dunfermline, Airdrie and Livi (who also bid).- Andy Ryan was coming off the back of a great season where he was the top scorer in Scotland, while Callaghan is coming off the back of a season where many will argue he underperformed in a team who were relegated- there were several clubs interested in Ryan which meant the price was higher than had we been the only club interested in the way Hearts are the only club to bid for Callaghan - our bid still didn't match Airdrie's valuation (most transfers don't) so your own valuation of his fee means very little.If he does go, and you sign Herron as a replacement, he's a good player although he has glass ankles and will be on the physio's table quite often. There is definitely a player there though and if you can keep him fit you'll have a good one. If the league does end up being a straight shoot out between yourselves and Ayr then I'd imagine it's more important that you keep Vaughan and Benedictus, keep Spence and Buchanan fit and make sure you don't have to play a midfielder in goals than keeping a midfielder? Good luck for the season. Unless we somehow go up this season I think the real Fife derby will be back on next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Don't see what we have to gain by selling Callachan for 35k. I get that it's a dream move for him and without meaning to paraphrase Gary Locke, it genuinely isn't in the interest of Raith Rovers to stand in the way of excellent moves like that for players who come through the youth system. On transfer deadline day, though, when promotion is worth far more than 35k? Seems a no brainer. Bringing some 18 year old arsehole in on loan is no replacement for our captain, who is dominating this league in sheer energy alone. Unless there's a replacement lined up it's a disaster. If he goes then genuinely the very best of luck to him. I'd hope the board don't stand behind 'undisclosed fee', 'we're happy with the deal' bullshit that Drysdale would've got away with last year had Gary Locke not been a moron and told everyone it was a freebie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith_Rasta Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Sell on fee will prob be 10% 15%See if his contract is 2 years, and he signs another 2 year contract after that one, are we still entitled to a sell on fee? Or do we hope he gets a 4 year contract for a more realistic chance of maybe a deece return of cash?Soz if I'm not making sense ha 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
