If someone can answer this then thanks, if Archer has a brilliant season and scores 10+ goals and we stay up, then do Villa get to buy him back and are we FORCED to sell? or what’s the crack

May assist ?
Guess the significant issue is about the ‘price(s)’of the buyback(s)

If we stay up then Villa cannot buy him back as I understand it
 
They're REQUIRED to re-sign him if we're relegated?

Surely not. Why would they agree to that? When we're likely to go down, with or without Archer?

If true it would remove so much of the upside for us. He's exactly the sort of player we'd be counting on to get us back up

I can see an optional 20m buy back if we go down, that's it. 25m minimum if we stay up

I guess you could look at it like a loan with an obligation to buy if we stay up as if not we’d get our money back (and a little more)

It's actually a very clever way of getting 3x PL loans.
Fair play to the board. Bringing in a fantastic player that we all wanted to sign. Not risking the future financial stability of the club, and we keep him if we stay up.
 

I was all in for Archer as I believed it meant guaranteed goals next season in the Championship.. now it looks like we have him, lose him again in May when we go down, and be back struggling for goal scorers in the Championship. (along side also probably losing Hamer if he has a decent season)

The future looks bleak.
Worry about all that later.
The future looks far from bleak in my view.
Another 12 months for Osula, Marsh, Hackford, Jebbison and Traore to develop.
Time for Brewster to get fit.
All of those options should provide goals in the Championship
Or we just replace Archer in the worse case scenario. If we go down then a few players will have to be sold anyway and some re-building done. I have some faith that this current management team can do that adequately.
 
No, I don't think so lol. But I have seen the pictures of the shop you mentioned and am now wondering if that's the same shop where my late dad bought the Hobbot(?) tracksuit from. It was black with red and white pinstripes IIRC.
Not sure if Archers were closed before 1979. If not, then it is likely he bought the Hobbotts tracksuit from there. Or it could be Suggs at the Moor?
 
Will be the actual health side of it heart scans etc then the fitness side of it later.
Heart scans will probably be more detailed now, after what happened with Erickson at the Euro's.
 
To Desmond has a barrow in the market place….

🎶 Desmond is a striker who has lots of pace
League one Wezzy has magic hands
Hamer is is a Dutchman with a pretty face……..

Needs work, I’ll get my coat
.....but don’t talk about poor Pompey cos he’s banned.....

Is that my coat you’ve taken?

Let's also not forget, that Ndaiye might have a shite season at Marseille and end up returning next season.
