He needs a new agent.

Yeah, cos the article must be true!

[Long slender neck]

200k!?

[CreamofSumYungGai]

He needs a new agent.

L1 would be ideal for him right now. Literally no point going and sitting in Norwich’s U23s for a year, getting loaned out to Grimsby in the 2020/21 season, then getting binned off and having to relaunch your career.

200k!?

He’s a great prospect, played a fair few games, why not?

[Proposition Joe]

Assume PW was intimating he was worth a fair bit more.

[Rich Tea Wellin]

As if Shrewsbury are paying 200k or more for a 20 year old who’s played about 4 games of league football

I thought it was at least 5 games

[Give it to Jabo]

I am keen on Keira Knightley. So what?

[Thor]

As if he’d sign for them.

No chance - the silly season has well and truly started.

I'm not sure but didn't the club refuse one or two offers for a couple of our players last season. With that in mind I hope we can retain our best players because we really do need to push on again next season.

[EliotNes]

At the AGM the management stated they had turned down £1M offers for 3 players. They did not name the players

Pick your 3 from Koroma, Macca, Marvin and Happe

Thanks Eliot. I thought it was that but couldn't quite remember.

Can you provide a link for that claim because I don’t think you’ve got it right.

He has it right, that indeed was the claim. I know it was the claim, because my reaction when I first saw it mentioned was "lol, no chance".

[Millennial Snowflake]

It’s like people don’t realise Shrewsbury are in a higher division than us

U should have gone to the AGM. There is no link as the Minutes won’t be issued until the notice of the next AGM. That’s usual company practice. Nothing strange in that.

No chance it was Marvin. Happe is a lot better.

Higher league yes but I have watched football for sixty years and in that time shrewsbury have done sweet fa in the leagues they have been in,I think most of us would be taken back if our good young players were sold to clubs for 200k who's setups are smaller than ours,shrewsbury's crowds unless playing Portsmouth ,sunderland are not big,hope our young players think the same and tell agents to take a walk.

[tuffers#1]

Isnt Happe's old man an O ?

Dont think he'll be happy if he buggers orf !

Sorry what?

Shrewsbury are in a higher league than Orient right now. Dan Happe will want to play at a higher level to progress as a player, and could realistically get games at that level. If he does well bigger clubs will be interested. And any player would rather play against Portsmouth and Sunderland in League One than Morecambe and Forest Green in League Two.
