If Stanley rate him at 200k then I would think thats the maximum the tribunal would award. More often than not it's somewhere between the value of the club he is leaving and the value of the club he is joining, possibly with add-ons for appearances and selling on fees.

Yes Andy,,,,,,,,,, Grant has been a striker more or less this season and has looked like a different player.

Previously he had been a bit part player on our left wing but never looked that great if im honest.

Some of his goals have been genuinely superb, and to me there is no doubt he can do a job in the Championship.


In terms of some people complaining about the club only giving players 1 year deals I do think that is abit short sighted. We all know the state of our finances and put quite simply the club wasnt in a position to offer more players 2 year deals. Especially as Symes & Grant at the beginning of the season where both on the bench !!! Remember that from the turn of the year Grant & Symes have both had deals on the table it has been up to them whether to sign or not.

I can understand them not signing but it is disappointing none the less.

have they had deals though as coley and jb were suppose to sign deals and that took ages! we should have add ons like goals, sell on fee etc! if he keeps playing well could possible get england call up! now he's going be playing on divison below the primier league

Have Coley and Jimmy signed their contracts? When did that happen?

Gutted, & I think Bobby would have benefitted from one more season with us but can't blame him for wanting to take a shot at Championship football & wish him all the luck in the world at Scunthorpe, although maybe if Stanley hadn't stalled on offering him a contract he'd still be a red

[Wynonie Harris]

So, anybody care to enlighten me? When did Coley and Jimmy sign their contracts? Can't see owt about it on t'fishy site?

I thought Grant and Symes had been offered deals in January for next season????


Plenty of time to make up their minds, but you cant stop them wanting to better themselves

Not sure, it's all been a bit confusing - a few weeks ago in the paper Bobby said that he wanted to sign but was just waiting for his offer, he also said this at the presentation night on 1st May & yet in couple of articles in the paper recently it's been reported that the club were waiting to hear from both Bobby & Symes?????

Doubt if they know out final at this stage grimps, its more down to the player i think.

[smudgie]

I think they are both more or less gone thats obvious.

The signing of Kee MUST be a priority.

As well as another striker or 2!!

Agree, hope they sign Billy, don't look very promising though. through no fault of the clubs.

So, I take it Coley and Jimmy haven't signed their contracts?
