On that basis we are getting royally shafted They are at a higher level than we are in the leagues, he has a longer contract, he is their club captain, Burnley are a premier league club. It’s not as simple as we think Knight is worth more than him Edited June 22, 2023 by Caerphilly Ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sees that transfer as akin to us selling Bogle (and Lowe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read through your entire post (it was a lengthy one even by your hefty standards) where you predicted that Sibley might replace McGoldrick as our goalscorer in chief. All of it. And I didn’t once fall off my chair laughing. (Nor did I laugh when you weightily predicted that Clowes would sell some of his shares in the club within weeks of purchase.) I could go on. Keep them coming; and, please, more semi colons. True to form, neither thing actually happened though did it Kev? Why do you continually post stuff that nobody's ever said? I mean it's nice that I'm in lofty company with Knighty being another of your victims, but the truth is I asked whether Sibley might be an able replacement, I did not state that he would be. As for the claim that I posted about Clowes selling shares in the club, well that is utter garbage, even by your lowly standards. That was another poster old boy! Do at tleast try and keep up! That said, by all means quote the two posts in question to prove your point. I won't hold my breath. Rev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don’t think you were asking a question about Sibley; I think you were playing to the gallery. Sadly, the simple answer to the question you now ask about him is: no.

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 4 hours ago, RamLad1884 said: Honestly don’t see where Knight would fit into this team if he stayed. The wingbacks we’ve signed are clearly coming in to play most if not all games. Midfield is stacked with Bird, Hourihane, Smith, Sibley if no one else comes in or none of the academy lads step up. Could he be any good as a wide forward/winger over NML? He’s not really got the finishing to play forward. Honestly in this league 2-3 million would rebuild our front line with some quality long term strikers. It’s a bit of a no brainer.

Presumably we're looking at 3 in midfield (even if one is in a more advanced position than the others) and at present I don't think anyone else on that list has the required hustle for a Warne team of harriers/pressers.

I suspect him staying or going depends on what Warne wants to do in the transfer market. If he's got a couple of strikers lined up that require a chunky fee for example, and selling Knight gets them in then we'll cash in. I think it is what both of them want. If he wants to leave, we would be mad to turn down c£2m for him in demotivated phase. That could bring in a good striker, or pay higher wages to one who is available. kevinhectoring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan_Ram Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I commented this on one of the FB fans groups when someone claimed that £2m was nowhere near enough. Thought it worth a repost on here to see what people think. If the rumoured 2-3m is true, then for me, that represents good business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost the same age, similar position, target for championship clubs, fee comparison this year Vs last year so no massive inflation. What makes it irrelevant out of interest? Can you elaborate.

Painful as it is a move to Bristol may be better. Two years of playing well and he'll get a move somewhere better as their players seem to get picked up. He'd actually be better of here than Stoke, putting in a right shift for the season and getting us up. kevinhectoring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say Knights got a better CV overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
