Re: Josh Koroma
Can’t see us turning down half a million for an unproven player at pretty much any level.

Re: Josh Koroma
Considering everything we've been through since Beelzebub's first day until now ,I would prefer we kept all our best players until we've consolidated ourselves back in League Two . Obviously, I accept Josh will probably leave us sooner or later for bigger and better things .

Re: Josh Koroma
Wouldn’t blame the club for accepting £500k.
BUT I still reckon he’s best served playing a full season in L2, at a club where he’s loved rather than going and playing for their U23s then getting loaned to Morecambe next season.
More to the point, I reckon he knows it too.

Re: Josh Koroma
Josh is fully aware of Tristan’s situation. I’m sure that’s helping to focus his mind.

Re: Josh Koroma
I'm not sure Huddersfield would be a good move for Josh in a number of counts.
First, Huddersfield is not a nice place. I've been there many times, and every time I was happy when I was on my way out. A young lad with no family there would surfer IMO
Next, he would as already said be lucky to be on the bench, and finally get loaned to another league 2 side. He might as well stay at this league 2 side.
If he were to go he could end up like George Porter, who went to Burnley. . Look what happened to him.
Agents will always try to convince a young player to go to a club because of their wedge
Would be a bad move for Josh..... He needs to stay put for a season

Re: Josh Koroma
He doesn't have to live in Huddersfield though. Leeds is only 20 miles away or Manchester or Sheffield a bit further.Jonathan wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 7:46 pm I'm not sure Huddersfield would be a good move for Josh in a number of counts.

Re: Josh Koroma
500k isn't enough, and we might as well wait another year because after he's proven himself in League Two he'll be worth double that if not more.

Re: Josh Koroma
So we sell one of our best players before we even kick a ball back in League Two ? . If we really must, we could always sell him in the January tranfer window.

Re: Josh Koroma
I believe his contract is up however, a fee would still be involved due to his age and the fact we nurtured him.Lucky7 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 8:54 pmI think next summer he could go for free isn’t his contract up?Smendrick Feaselberg wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 8:42 pmOn what basis?RicketyCricket wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 8:11 pm 500k isn't enough, and we might as well wait another year because after he's proven himself in League Two he'll be worth double that if not more.

Re: Josh Koroma
If we really must then we wouldn't wait until a prime asset has fewer than 6 months left on his contract. No way does a tribunal award us anywhere near £500k so the longer we wait the lesser fee we get.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 8:59 pm So we sell one of our best players before we even kick a ball back in League Two ? .

Re: Josh Koroma
It’s potentially more money now, but it doesn’t mean more much eh longer term. How much is Tristan earning at the moment?
We need to offer him more money, extend his contract for another year, then hope he has another successful season with us and send him on his way at the end of the 19/20 season.

Re: Josh Koroma
Ah okay didn't realise his contract expires next summer. Changes it completely and wouldn't blame the club if they decided to cash in. I think we're heading for mid table with or without Koroma.
Would be a shame to see him go though, best O's player since Odubajo.

Might not be far off £500k?
