LauraH Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Like many others on here i've never really understood why fans get so involved over the fees. Do i personally think he's worth £8m, no probably not but i don't really care, it's not my money. Also i gather fees are very rarely the amounts that are reported and are spread over years or on the never-never. If he was a Derby player do i think he would be worth £8m? Yes. Anyway for the first time in... Forever... I think we are buying season tickets this year. Partly due to the thought of actually being enjoyable to watch this season and partly due to moving closer to home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archied Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 As with Marriott I’m going to trust lampard and his team on this one and feel comfortable doing that because although Southampton game was only pre season I saw easily enough to lift my spirits , passing at pace , movement off the ball with players supporting the man in possession giving options and angles ,pulling the opposition all over the place , if frank sees waghorn and Marriott as players that fit in to this style ( I think he wants goals throughout the team not just a striker) then I’m on board ,, let the money men figure how to make it happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that was the start & end of it. Not that it makes a difference at all, but yeah. The fee is undisclosed, but is thought to be in the region of £1m. http://www.ipswichstar.co.uk/sport/ipswich-town-sign-striker-martyn-waghorn-from-rangers-1-5138614 Town say they've paid a 'substantial fee' to land the forward who has been handed the number nine shirt. http://www.itv.com/news/anglia/2017-08-07/martyn-waghorn-ipswich-pay-substantial-fee-to-land-rangers-striker/ Mick McCarthy: "It’s not the million quid which has been reported, nowhere near that. It sounds good for the club and for Rangers I guess, but no. “It’s an absolute snip.

3766dan Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 If we sign Marriott and Waghorn for the money we get from selling Vydra that is very good business from us. I would be beyond happy with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully whatever fees we get from our overly-stacked-not-very-good midfield and/or Forsyth (we can dream), I'd hope we go and invest in Bryson's long term replacement/injury cover.

Completely agree. If we sign this pair I think it’s almost certain we will shift some of our deadweight even if it’s for minimal transfer fees. A young holding midfielder that can cover at CB (Bayliss) and a left back would be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be thinking of the Reading player we've been linked with, George Evans? Either way I'm a big fan of the Bayliss idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 For a serious promotion push you need at least three central strikers if one is Injured then one Is a sub and if one is out of form. If we move on Martin, Jerome and Blackman it would leave us with Waghorn, Vydra and Marriott. Massive improvement with no major wages hit. 100 goal season? Move out Butterfield and Thorne. Job's a good 'un This is my master plan which will change, in a couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Bayliss could act as an understudy to Bryson then that would be good for us! I definitely don't think we need another CDM. Johnson would be the natural replacement for Bryson in the team at the moment. Waghorn for £4m including lots of clauses seems more sensible. It's still a lot of money, mind, but I think that seems like a fair deal given what Ipswich would want after his record there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rate him as highly as anyone, but he isn't going to get back into the swing of things through us. I'd let McClaren have him for 6 months, we cover the wages if he plays - if he doesn't then they need to cover the wages. Fair enough deal.

I think the third choice forward will probably end up being Bennett or one of Nugent/Jerome if they stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigmaRam Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Waghorn actually scored more goals in open play than Vydra laste season. Vydra 22 goals, 4 assists, 7 penalties waghorn 16 goals, 11 assists, 0 penalties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
