Bob Weasel Fox Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 i think if were patient we could see a few new signings ny early July, that seems to be the general consensus anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilworthfox Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 Blatantly us, and the first bid always gets rejected anyway. Yeah its a testing the water time to show the agent & player that LCFC are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheFox07 Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 well bristol city are holding out for 5 million which it has been said we are not willing to pay in one hit given his injury last season, So they have obviously got to come to an agreement over a fee and im guessing that we will have to give maynard top wages too!

Bilo Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 Let's hope the initial bid has turned Maynard's head. If Brizzle really think they're going to be able to hold out for £5m in one hit for a want-away player with a year on his contract, they could be in for a nasty shock......

thybluefox Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 I can see them getting closer to £5million if they accepted some add-ons if we got promoted etc, but to think they expect that in 1 lump sum is stupid. Fingers crossed its got Maynard's apparently itchy feet moving a little bit. If he says to the club he's interested in a move here there's no way they'll force him to stay. Do that and they risk having an unhappy player for a season, who doesn't renew his contract, and then goes for a free in a year. /our bid for him could well have signalled the end of the Yakubu talks though.

DanTheFox07 Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 i think we will go to 4 million in total with add on`s! but only time will tell, no doubt been a bit cheeky with first bid no where near his value! then can slowly increase it, but only problem now is will anyone else be alerted by our intrest??

(providing it is us, of course) I would imagine we'd pay no more than £3m initially, given his short remaining contract and injury problems last season. What the add-ons will be though remain to be seen, if they touch £4-5m dependent on appearances, goals and promotion Bristol City will most likely reluctantly accept.

They can hold out if they want, but they'll probably lose him for nothing if they do. All the comments they are making is just a come and get him plea to other interested teams.

martyn Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 Bristol City have been linked with a few strikers recently, maybe cash (£1.5-£2m) + Waghorn might be a tempter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo86 Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 Doubt we would of wasted time making a bid if we hadn't already tested the water with Maynard's agent to see if he's interested in joining us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

80footgiraffe Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 The law of sod would no doubt haunt us. Maynard gets injured and waggy goes on to score 20+ for Brizzle. Doh! That would be good for waggy, he barely gets a game here anymore so I think brizzle would suit him. Nugent Maynard Derbyshire combo and we'd be laughing, so if maynard did get injured, we'd still e alright with gally or vassell playing wings. Still think maynard will sign up for us.

ThurnbyLodgeFox Posted 20 June 2011 Share Posted 20 June 2011 Bristol City have been linked with a few strikers recently, maybe cash (£1.5-£2m) + Waghorn might be a tempter. if we can't get any of our strikers from last season back we will need waghorn. ino he isnt the player he was 2 seasons ago, but the kid needs to prove himself in a team of which WILL BE highly rated players. selling him off, i cant see, will not be a good idea, especially if we sign Maynard who is prone to injuries.
