On the negative side we have to spend some of that money to get a replacement which will be a gamble for us. Will we finish lower down the table or go out of competitions ‘cause we miss him on the park, leading to loss of money?
Can’t really accurately assess the possible negative financial aspect of the situation but I think it Will all really be driven by Just amd his agent. Once the lure of a Much better pay day is up for grabs it’s hard to retain a player per contract amd keep them settled happy amd playing well.
It’s a very tricky time for the club although I’m hoping they have a lot more information than we do. Trying to determine who to bring in but not knowing how much you can spend, not sure who will be here for the new season or even who will be here initially, since our first competitive game is only 3 weeks away.
So much up in the air, an unenviable task.
Chris Wood’s last 3 transfers have been 15M 25M and 15M. Eli easily showed he can play with that level of player. Just should blow our transfer fee record out of the water. Although I’m sure his transfer fee will be suitably scaled back since it’s only Motherwell, a wee team from the SPFL 😡
“…. Survey can be found on line here”
however, I don’t see any link.
edit: I got it. Thought I had clicked on “here” but obviously my fat thumb didn’t press where thought it did. So on a re try my thumb actually clicked on the word HERE
They have a set procedure per the order of names drawn out the hat but that can be affected by other European games set to be played in the same locality so that’s probably the delay in confirming the dates for Motherwell game. I have no clue how they sort that out if it is an issue.
