Football Department Review

[ElwoodBlues1]

So the cynic in me thinks Harry is about to walk and the review is a smokescreen to absolve the club of the blame.

McGovern and Williams are millstones hanging round our neck.

Wayne Carey wants Nth to throw a godfather deal at Harry and I presume also look after his brother Ben too. I think Harry will stay but will cost us a bit more than anticipated.
Id be inclined not to over pay...

Could cost between 900-950k now.

Pretty sure his brother has already signed with North.

Three years for Ben at Nth but if Harry signed on I think Nth would look after Ben for the future too..

Have we not waited a million years for H to come good? He owes us Altho I don’t see him as being particularly tight with the other players, there is something not quite right there.

Harry has stated several times he played so much junior foot with his brother he does not want to be at the same club. I know sometimes money talks but not sure there is many other positives in joining a team like North over us

Conspiracy theory…..In current negotiations  and other conversations, it was highlighted that we are going nowhere and that things needed to change ASAP before there were significant commitments. Sayer saw some writing on the wall and decided to get proactive and create a circuit breaker…. A full mid season review.

I've heard that the Cripps delay in signing is so that the club gets to see who opponents offer up in trade, apparently we played this game once before when SOS was in charge, maybe we are doing it again and Austin is a little less polished at it! :o

A 5-7 Million dollar contract might make him love his brother at the same club a bit more....
As Jim suggested I can see the price being pushed up to 900k- 1mill, cant see Harrys management accepting less given lesser players like Williams are around the 800k mark.
Its going to be a balancing act with Cripps and Walsh also set to be around that those figures you would have to expect.

Just backend it and ask him to take a pay cut if/when we are successful to keep the band together.
If we are not successful and we don't want to pay his contract.....someone will.

Win-win.
