BarnsleyFCFan Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I must say though that the board are dealing with the Ojamaa issue correctly. He won't be leaving unless they get a good price for him It's good to see the club not being held to ransom. What do 'Well fans think of Clayton Donaldson? He seems to be linked to quite a few clubs in England, would he be a good replacement for Higdon IF he signed for someone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellfan1984 Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Complete diddy at Hibs (although that means nothing, look at Vaz Te...). Not kept any tabs on hims since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnsleyFCFan Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 He seems to have impressed at Brentford, before losing in the League One Play Off Final to Yeovil Town. As you say, look at Vaz Te, it was a pleasure to watch him play in a BFC shirt, an amazing talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Clayton Donaldson was comically bad. And Greg Wylde didn't make a single appearance for Bolton and has been released one year into a three year deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelvinBragg Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 And Greg Wylde didn't make a single appearance for Bolton and has been released one year into a three year deal! Aye, while Wylde was promising at Ibrox and I reckon he'd be a decent signing, let's not build him up to be something that he's not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnsleyFCFan Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22545324 I can't comment on the other 3 but I reckon Odejayi would do a job in the SPL, he scored goals for fun for Cheltenham in League One before we signed him, he had an awful time at Oakwell and never really got a look in at Rotherham. He's bloody massive, powerful, with pace to burn. Just my opinion, of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well 4 Europe Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Off all the players mentioned over the last few pages Wylde is the one I'm least enthused about potentially signing. I remember him being quick but he didn't have a lot else about him, I think he's just another Burchill or Fleck who was built up into something he's really not. And while pace is a valuable asset in the SPL as Humphrey showed, Wylde won't come cheap and to be honest I wouldn't be in any rush to go over the odds to try and match what Aberdeen or Hibs will offer. I'd take a punt on him if he'd come for a reasonable price but I'm sure there are cheaper alternatives of similar quality out there. Scott Allan, Lee Miller & Iain Vigurs - Would be delighted with any of those 3, although I doubt any of them will come off. I'd put good money on our next signing being someone who hasn't even been mentioned on here yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siebsbarmyarmy Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 i think you are seriously over rating iain vigurs. Yeah and we all know your an outstanding judge of a player!!!! I personally think Vigurs is a very very good player. Would be delighted to seen him at Well next year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been two of the best players in the spl last season and played for a very impressive Ross county team. You sound like a cocky old firm fan.

You sound like a cocky old firm fan. i'm not saying that vigurs would be a terrible signing or that it's impossible that he might be a very good one just that he hasn't done much in his career so far yet we have some people acting like it would be a major coup to get him to sign. iain vigurs would be fortunate to sign for motherwell not the other way around.

DEWELL Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Gers following workmate said Wylde was Cack and apparently he swans around Kirkintilloch in his big car like a ticket. He got punted from Bolton without hardly getting on the pitch for them. Let Aberdeen have him. <_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewarkfanclub Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Vigurs is a smashing player. Think he would be a great addition to our squad but given we have signed Lawson and already have Lasley and Carswell in place, not sure another central midfield player is a priority?

Tickle Pickle Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Russell confirmed to go for £750,000 - McFadden went for £1.25, Murphy for £125,000? Ojamaa is surely similar pricing to Russell... We lose so much money by being big girls in the boardroom!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I feel like I've said this before, but we can't make someone pay more for our players. The difference, I assume, is that United will get a development fee for Russell regardless, which we don't with Ojamaa, I don't think. It is weird though, and although I think Russell is a better player than Ojamaa, he isn't five times the player Ojamaa is, they're a similar age, a similar contract situation, both knocking on doors internationally, but for some reason Derby are chucking money at United, and no-one wants to throw money at us. I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I feel like I've said this before, but we can't make someone pay more for our players. Agreed, but the thing is that on this board quite a few folk are convinced that if we were resolute enough could force other clubs into paying a higher fee. Quite how we would achieve this has yet to be explained. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 So United will have received over £3mil for Goodwillie and Russell while we'lte probably looking at £400k for Murphy and Ojamaa. Who knows what goes on behind the scenes but something doesn't stack up. Still baffled that we didn't receive a bid for Randolph over the course of 3 years.
