      Both big clubs and both have been showing interest in Will.
      Now,who do they think they are? Once beens floating around midfield in The Championship. On the field our equals or less and off the field I would say light years behind us.
      So what is it with these once beens? Why do they think Will would want to join them and more so why do they think we would sell him to them and especially for the money they could afford.
      Arrogant, deluded idiots!!!

      Caldwell has said he’s not for sale. However it would take a ludicrous amount of money for us to sell.

        I remember when Jason Roberts left us for Blackburn, he only wanted something like a grand a week more, may have been less, but we couldn’t match them and off he trundled down the M65.
        Unfortunately, no matter how much team spirit there is in the camp, and no matter how much the fans idolise them, players are always only a chairman’s wallet away from a move. :dry:

        From Matlock to ManU
        What a journey!

          And also they are only their own pocket away from a move.

            Leaving aside the history, Leeds and Forest are both “established” championship clubs with more spending power, more income, and more support. Perhaps you have forgotten that the majority of your squad will be playing next season at a level they’ve never experienced before, and like it or not, will be one of the favourites to go down.

                Anyway, have Forest even got a manager yet? I know Leeds have only just got one.
                Last I heard he was 4/6 to stay here and 6/4 to go to Celtic. Another reason why this shite should be kept to one thread all summer.

                Both those clubs would have to earn £434,782.61 in revenue per game more than WAFC this coming season just to make up for our parachute payments, let alone the fact they are run by foreign owners with no affinity whatsoever with the clubs and don’t seem to be making a good job of getting out of the Championship despite their “established” status.

                #148924

                That’s £23 million over 46 games. The parachute payment is £9m.

                Forest & Leeds have the better players at this moment in time, so the figure you quote will be swallowed up pretty quickly on transfer fees, signing on fees, agents bungs, and higher wages for anyone you persuade to sign that is of the quality to make the squad better than Leeds & Forest.

                As an aside, I’m sure everyone here welcomes you back after a 14 month absence from posting, coinciding with a 14 month absence by WAFC from the Championship.

                A few wins next season and we might get Bob on the Moon & Parakeet back too!

                During the 14 months I have been away I note you are still talking and posting crap, some things never change.

                Let me put you straight on a couple of things that most football fans will know, I don’t include you in that group.

                Income is gained on 23 home games not 46, Latics will receive £10,550,000 and change this year, same as they did last season, I rounded it down to 10 million, meaning those clubs have to earn c £450 k per game to reach what we have already BANKED.

                Who says they have better players ? A know nothing egg chaser like you.

                You go on to claim that we will have to sign better players to compete with them, you fail to say that both Forest and Leeds were mediocre mid table sides last season and will need a complete overall to improve any, so where will those improvements come from ? Oh, that’s it, as the original poster pointed out, they will try to sign a player from ‘us’ to improve them. Dream on.

                That’s an egg-chaser who follows football, and doesn’t go to ground when his team aren’t doing well. Unless of course you are a member of the SAS and have been on a 14 month “mission” in Syria, then of course I’ll commend you for your service.

                Seeing as the players Leeds & Forest have got them to 13th & 16th respectively in a division higher, and seeing as many of those players were also playing for Leeds and Forest the season before when Latics were relegated, then I’d say they have better players. League positions don’t lie.

                The other reason I believe they have better players is that in the Wigan squad, only two have been regulars at another side who has achieved higher than mid-table Championship, and of those, one is a 41 year old goalkeeper, and another is about to be released. Even Will Grigg hasn’t played a single Championship game, and whilst he has had a great two years in the 3rd division with MK Dons and Wigan, it was telling that tonight he was an unused sub, behind Lafferty & Washington – one of whom got half a dozen games for Birmingham, a mid-table Championship club, and one who managed 10 games for QPR, another mid-table Championship club, after being sold by Peterborough, where he was a success.

                Feel free to pop back in 14 months time and we’ll see where Leeds, Forest & Wigan are.
