I'd really hope the club are exhausting all possible avenues / options to get Kee to sign. As others have said, speculate to accumulate.
In my opinion the club would hardly be taking a speculative gamble by offering Kee a deal. We all know his talent and have seen that the lad has promise. Hardly a gamble !!!
Had we been a little bolder as a club, we would have reaped a reward by signing Carl Baker. That time a fee was involved (£50k reportedly??) which the club weren't prepared to pay. A couple of seasons down the line he went for big money and the club missed out on a big pay day with probably sell on clauses.
This time the financial question is the wage and a contract, no transfer fee involved. If we're to go anywhere near challenging for promotion and invest in the future, surely signing Kee has to rank as a priority, likewise getting the other main men tied down to contracts longer than a season.
