Sam Cosgrove

[BWG]

I would imagine Carlisle insisted on a sell on clause when we bought him from them.

I dunno. Were they not quite happy to get 10K for him? I remember their manager at the time saying it was good business for them as he'd leave them on a free anyway.

 

GIRFUY Carlisle.

GIRFUY Carlisle.

 

I would doubt Carlise have anything of the sort... they probably expected his next move would be a free transfer to ASDA or McDonalds.

[Poodler]

Would take a seven figure sum.

 

Purple patch.

[GDON21]

Alan Nixon from the Sun is where is it coming from.

 

The same Alan Nixon who reported that we had accepted a bid on deadline day for McKenna from Stoke. Only to come out that no bid had been made for him for over a week.

[Scotty_Toronto]

He must have a genuine chance of finishing top scorer with the other guy only having 2 games left.

I think it was 40k we got him for. Unlikely of any sell on involved with Carlisle.

 

Any bid over 1mil and a 20% sell on and he'll be offski.

 

Good business and offsets the Forrester/May debacles.

20K

 

Any bid over 980k plus 20% sell on and he'll be offski then.

Why would we sell our only goal scoring striker for a million quid? Especially given his age and length of contract

[Parklife]

Why would we sell our only goal scoring striker for a million quid? Especially given his age and length of contract

Because he's not very good and his purple patch won't last forever.

[Sonoftherock]

Its going to be really interesting to see what the club does here...  because we will receive a bid this summer.

 

He's a young English striker, who's banging in the goals.... there are several clubs down south, with more money than sense, who'll be falling over themselves to 'grab a bargain'.

[Tommy]

Because he's not very good and his purple patch won't last forever.

He’ll just get another purple patch.

[The Boofon]

How’s Stockley getting on?

 

Still banging them in?

[Betty Swallicks]

Because he's actually fairly shit but mostly because we've a grippit chairman who wants to change a field into a new stadium.

[Betty Swallicks]

You best calm down Betty son.

 

Whats the name of that Liverpool full back again?

 

[Betty Swallicks]

Here come on now - Cozzer is a fucking hero; my useless cuntishness has ZERO to do with it.

 

You wee prick.

Jesus wept, still banging on about the new stadium. You need some new material min. That ship has sailed. Kingsford FTW

Bamalam

[Henry]

Still banging them in?

 

19 goals this season.

 

3 of them since he moved to Preston in January.

Yep. And with the other guy, I'm not even sure if he'll play again this season. Wouldn't be surprised to see Gerrard bench him for those last two games (unless we're back in contention for 2nd, which we won't be)

[Betty Swallicks]

Ha! Calm doon, hardly banging on,  I was asked why I thought we would cash in on Cosgrove.

 

P.S. Kingsford FTW

Not so big a return with a better club. Exeter likely his level.

 embarrassing that we only have one on that list. Not going to steal Killies work with Stewart to claim his stats as ours 

Why would we sell our only goal scoring striker for a million quid? Especially given his age and length of contract

exactly. Unless we are offered £2m+ we will not be selling him. Even if only a little over that then the board will have a tough decision to make imo.

He's improving all the time, just needs the correct players alongside him & he will keep scoring

[NEM]

He was out of his depth at SPL level

[The Brocher]

Sell anybody as long as there's a sell on clause. We are just about to coin it in for Ryan Fraser when he gets a transfer in the summer. 20% of 20m is pretty good

[tightbreeks]

If we have everyone fit, I can see Cosgrove scoring the winner in injury te when we take it to the timaloy.

[G31DON]

It's fucking amazing if we get it.

 

A player that hardly played any games and left about 6 years ago.

[fine-n-dandy]

But was arguably tapped up & basically robbed from us.

 

Fair enough imo. Bournemouth will & have clearly scored a lot better from the deal regardless

 

I think the Ryan Fraser lesson has taught the club a good bit & we are seeing this regards McKenna, as we will likely score even more money via him. Through direct sale & then also potential sell on clause (depending who we sell to) we could get a double whammy with young McKenna eventually

[G31DON]

Karma. Got screwed over at the beginning, but end up lessons learned and hopefully 4 million in the bank, which is miles more than we'd have got at the time if he was on a 2 year deal.

[Ke1t]

Will be interesting to see if Arsenal can match the alleged 400 quid a week we were going to splash on his salary.
