What do their fans think of him? my mate is Blues crazy, one of those football nutters who have the club lampshade, duvet cover and curtains. He loves Bielek, really wants to keep him. jono and DarkFruitsRam7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BramcoteRam84 Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 With their US Private Equity takeover they might have some cash to spend now. Realistically what do we think we can get for him with 1 year left on his contract. I think anything around £2m is reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought with clubs knowing our limitations just taking him off us for no fee but freeing us from his sizeable wages would be deemed a win for us. unless theres a dutch auction for him i highly doubt we’ll see anything sizeable fee wise. given his injury record i highly doubt there will be Ram-Alf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His agent will be scouring EU football and others to get the best deal, I see another loan elsewhere...not Brum tho with either a cheap sell on fee £500k or Bielik seeing out his contract and moving for nowt next Summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Hopefully we play hard ball with Birmingham but we are stuck aren’t we - we can’t afford his wages in this league and he doesn’t want to play in this league but I suspect we still owe Arsenal money so another wammy - we aren’t doing very well out of this very expensive transfer, in fact Birmingham probably got the best value out of it.

His ability and his dominance of League One whilst on loan at Charlton was plain for all to see. It was known that he had had some issues with injuries, but unfortunately no amount of scouting can tell you he was going to do his ACL in (even if his all action, leggy style possibly contributed) We paid too much for him, of course, but without the ACL injuries he was a beast, so much potential Rammy03, jono, Premier ram and 3 others 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, given our obvious financial problems that mel and co would have been aware of it was wreckless and irresponsible to sign him for that amount Jackal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always choosing obvious expensive signings was Mel's way. Whilst I'm not confident in Warne I hope we can be confident in the new recruitment team Clowes has chosen...

If it is a loan then we should be pushing for a decent loan fee. I think after his performances for Brum we might get a couple of offers hopefully.

I don’t think we got a loan fee from Birmingham this season and only around 80% of his wages paid from what I heard - anyway if it’s the best deal we could get that’s it really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ur right we can probably cope with his wages however if that is at the cost to 2/3 players that will fill the squad and give us options to change a game then its a tough call. while bielik is quality we also have to be mindful of his injury record and having all our eggs in the one basket so to speak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
