Re: Galbraith Offer being considered
Based on his performances towards the end of the season we should already have started talks with him about an extension…

All this talk about offering players extensions, but some of them may live in flats.

Re: Galbraith Offer being considered
From a business point of view, it would be good business to get 500k, for a player that cost us nowt last year
From a football point of view it would be disastrous to let him go. Teams that let their best players go, suffer in their league position, and get relegated eventually.
It's a tough one for me, but from a fans point of view, I'd like to keep him, especially after losing our top scorer 3 days ago

We can’t stop clubs coming in, but we need to be robust and not little Leyton Orient . Remind Huddersfield
That they are in the same league so clear off !

Re: Galbraith Offer being considered
Extend his contract, sell him in 12 months time when the fee will be through the roof if he continues on his current trajectory

Re: Galbraith Offer being considered
How would you value Kyprianou in comparison? Similar age and number of games at the same level. Reportedly they turned down 7 figure bids though of course that may have been agent speak.Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 1:54 pm People have lost their minds if they think 500k for Orient isn’t a very decent amount.
We’re talking about a player who has had a season in league two and was decent for just over half a season in league one. It’s natural to overvalue your own assets.
If orient bought a player for half a mil with the same cv you’d think king had gone mad

Re: Galbraith Offer being considered
Hector is further ahead in his development and better established at the moment. He’s had pretty much four full seasons playing senior football. Ethan has only 3 part seasons - it looks as if last year was his best and even that was stop start, only really getting going at the end.gshaw wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 3:10 pmHow would you value Kyprianou in comparison?

But he’s definitely got more potential IMO. We’d be crazy to sell at this stage.

gshaw....I wonder what you thought of Hector when he was at the Os, were you pleased when he went to Peterborough for a transfer fee of reportedly £300,000 ?gshaw wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 3:10 pmHow would you value Kyprianou in comparison?

Praised lord Ferguson of Peterborough for taking a liability off our hands and letting us bring in two quality pros ready for an L2 title push.Sid Bishop wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 4:22 pmgshaw....I wonder what you thought of Hector when he was at the Os, were you pleased when he went to Peterborough for a transfer fee of reportedly £300,000 ?gshaw wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 3:10 pmHow would you value Kyprianou in comparison?

If they were able to have the luxury of time to develop him good for them, we needed instant results and El Miz and Moncur delivered

Re: Galbraith Offer being considered
Logical fee is new contract with bigger wages and a 2 million release clause

Re: Galbraith Offer being considered
I agree if they want to pay £500.000 that’s fine. Ipswich have placed a £350,000 tag on El Miz with Derby and Oxford interested.

Unless he ruptures his achilies or tears his cruciate pre season & stays, plays no games, no cash injection for new players & so on & so on.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 3:25 pmAbsolutely .Hoover Attack wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 2:59 pm Extend his contract, sell him in 12 months time when the fee will be through the roof if he continues on his current trajectory

Re: Galbraith Offer being considered
We had him in as a first choice starter where he was making one mistake after another.Sid Bishop wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 8:13 pm You say he was a liability, Peterborough thought differently !
Peterborough brought him in as a project to develop slowly as they have the squad depth to allow that.
That's the difference, he wasn't ready for what we needed hence why our midfield was absolutely useless under KJ. Remember the futility of starting Kyprianou, Young and Coleman / Brown? What player he ended up 2 years down the line doesn't matter, was more important we had players to win L2 promotion when we did.
