Nuge contract talks stall..

"life on the bench"-[/i

]  strange if true that NP has said this

I suspect that if Pearson has said anything it's along the lines of "next season you will all need to step up an extra level, i will be bolstering the squad, competition for starting places will be even more fierce, no one is guaranteed to start, and the demands of the Prem will mean that the whole squad will be called upon more often than last season". And any sensible player will accept this as quite reasonable.

All that's happening here is that while Nuge is on holiday his agent is using whatever means he can to drive up his client's offer from us.

I hope I'm not wrong!

I'm a little surprised by what's going on but I have faith in Nige and the team. I guess if he goes then their theory is that Vardy as our number one retained striker, with Wood kept as future prospect, which if is the case then we are i'd have thought we will sign two new strikers. Campbell and one other. 

 

Vardy

Wood

Campbell (?)

Ulloa/Akoubar/Pele (?)

 

The above is probably better than:

 

 

Vardy

Wood

Nuge

Campbell (?)

It's his last payday contract - there will never be another one for him after this when he's in his 30's.

 

His representatives will do their jobs.

 

I do wonder if this is agreed but not yet finalised with detail a la Kasper.

Agree with this, he has to get the best deal he can at this stage of his career. If prem clubs are in for him, its a simple case of highest bidder wins.

We have to offer the right sustainable deal for the club, if that puts us out the running then so be it. Hopefully we can find a good solution for both parties, I like Nugent.

I like Nugent too. But that has no bearing on weather he can do it in the Prem . We are no longer a mug club when it comes down to finance, and that is down to the fact that we now have two money men  on the payroll . They will work out the odds as too weather he is worth it or not in terms of his age experience and new wage demands.

 

They will listen to his agents pitch and if they don't think he's worth it they will say so. And on that unknown evidence will the outcome become known. My personal view is he should be lucky at his age that he is being offered a tilt at the Premiership for one last time and just like Lloyd Dyer should take it with both arms open. If not there is always new talent and he will quickly become a fond memory of one of the clubs best years and nothing more.

disappointing that Nugent still takes a wage from Portsmouth , hes  greedy

 

So he shouldn't get money that he is owed?

What if you had a previous job and didn't get paid, would you expect to get money back you are owed?

The difference is that Nuge is a millionaire and knows Portsmouth don't have a pot to piss in. I think he waived some of the money he was owed but does he really need the rest?

Agree with this he was on fortune at Pompey and when they can't pay anymore he still wants to bleed them dry.

He is a greedy twat and is on silly money here and still wants more.

that says so much about the person

We don't owe him anything. He has been paid handsomely for three seasons in the Championship, that should cover it.

If we've offered him what Nige thinks he is worth, we stick to that.
