Makes you wonder about fans who lord it how they mugged a club out of 3 mill for an average central defender then see a striker they let go for 1.5 million get sold for 16 million after scoring more goals last season than the player they would like but can’t afford.Then to top it all they sell a central defender for 1.5 million who is now going to be sold for over 60 mill.Great business 😃

Egan was the best defender in the Championship last season. The data speaks for itself. You've just payed almost 3 million more for a more limited, older player :cool:. Maguire went for 2.5 million plus substantial add ons. He was in the last year of his contract, so it was a case of getting something rather than nothing. There was actually relatively little interest bar Wolves and Hull. You could've had yourselves a bargain...😜
Adams went for 2.25 million plus add ons, some of which we've just received.
The difference between us and Brenford is that we don't have a sugar daddy owner and have used the 30 plus million in player sales to get promoted. If it wasn't for Paul Coutts leg break it would've taken two years, rather than three. We have, essentially, your model but have been more successful at implementing it over the past three years 😏.
 
20 million Up front, or a 20 million package?
Well that's a difficult one as the add ons are never really disclosed. But I don't feel the package will equate to 20m either. No championship player has been sold for such sums before....and it's not exactly a villa or a leeds that have just been relegated that we're dealing with.

I'd get the terms of the bet outlined mate. I can see someone going up to 20 for the package, but not interms f the guaranteed fee. It could be 12 million plus 8 million in possible add ons, for example.

"Of course, many on here don't believe him, so I just thought I'd link to today's local paper which supports his claims, not those of your ITK's "

Really, do people still believe what the press says.

That is as credible as the messages that I send up in smoke signals.

Ok, but please post under "other football" or you might attract some ire whether it's warranted or not. I could write one re Blades, but it's likely to be largely the same with an accent on academy player sales.
Target young, hungry players from lower divisions that are underated by clubs for various reasons, and bring them in and develop them. If an earth shattering bid comes in higher than our valuation move them on. Only bring senior pros in on the cheap or on loan. They have to be easily dispensable. Don't upset the wage structure. Players outside the wage structure can only be loans. Target players that are in the last year of their contract that fit into this criterion. In Wilder's case, he's had to accept that owner led investment will be minimal. Our initial signings for the prem look largely the same.

'fraid not Les, the utter irrelevance of so many of the posts from your fellow Bees has at least warned us off the 'art' of communication with your lot fella.

Maybe you ought to target QPR, at least they're a stone's thrown from your ground. If your lot want a healthy dialogue make sure it's not circular and a complete waste of time.

Well it's taken the 49 years I've lived so far to develop the deep hatred for the pigs I have. You lot have achieved about 95% of that in 3 weeks.
You really are a boring deluded bunch.
I'm not even that arsed about Maupay. At 10m hed be worth a punt. 20m or anywhere close to it is just silly. Billy would score more in the prem this season than him anyway as he 100% understands our system.
I'd take mcburnie over him all day as he'd complement our bill nicely.
 

And yet here we are, about to start a Premier League campaign after being in L1 only 3 years ago. Meanwhile, down Brentford way, the business model of champions continues to bring mid table success to the happy bees.
I think you guys need to get your story straight.

SU is a massive club, yet you're crowing about getting back to where you should never have left in the first place.

versus

BFC is a tiny club, who shouldn't be allowed to take some small comfort in being nicely set a couple of divisions above where we "properly" belong.

Is it a Northern thing? ;)

Why are we discussing chuffing Brentford, their business model, its success etc. I'll add my bit since I'm here. Positives first: I think what Brentford have done great recruitment wise and the new ground on the way which looks great is a great example of what can be done with decent ownership.

However, I'm interested in whether we're signing Maupay, I personally don't think it'll happen but I have no interest in this thread going past 200 pages, the majority of which are Brentford fans on here debating with us. Do us a favour and go back to your own forum, unless we sign Maupay or he goes elsewhere.
 
Wow, that's weird. Did anyone think I was serious?
With the state of your lot, it wouldn’t be surprising.

And I know this forum is supposed to be welcoming to all etc, but I think I speak for the majority of posters on here in saying it’s time your lot just fucked off and then fucked off from there as well. Like you said you would on the first night of your pathetic little jaunt across to a functioning forum.

Cheerio, enjoy mid table mediocrity once again

Please, fuck off now. You really are starting to get right on my fucking tits, all of you. So smug, so self righteous, so sanctimonious. I really don't give a fuck about anything you are so cleverly pointing out here. Twat.

No, it's your interpretation and bears no resemblance to the truth or facts.

No it’s a just fuck off you bunch of boring sanctimonious tossers thing. Really are the second most deluded and pathetic fan base in the land

None of your combinations will happen. It's £20m PLUS add-ons, not £20m INCLUDING add-ons. Especially add-ons reliant on you staying-up. We might take such a deal from Manchester City based on staying-up and value it differently than a similar add-on from you. No offence!

Why don’t you open your ears instead of your little big club Norf and Sarf for once?

I’ve explained to you the factors in play. Not all are controlled by your darling chairman.

He’s going. He’s going this Summer. The fee will be less than £20m.

Brentford. Fucking Brentford.

The two are linked.

You see, as a PL club, some (stress) of your fans seem to think you can breeze in and take our 2nd best player for less than he's actually worth.

And while that might work with many Championship clubs (I'm thinking Freeman from QPR), it's not so simple with Brentford.

Which is only what we're trying to explain, as we see it.

You did ages ago in the thread. It is all getting a bit tedious now though.
 
Exactly.

Assuming £20m is the fee, then that's gotta be a major reason why he hasn't gone anywhere yet.

Yet, indeed. This will play out exactly as I predicted.

Sadly you lot have arrived to posture, not participate; lecture, not listen.

You have become tiresome and a ‘little’ ridiculous.
