davulsukur Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Typical short sightedness from Venky's. Let some players leave in order to save a few quid but ignoring the potential transfer fees further down the line on the likes of Dack/Nyambe. As others have said, if money is tight, why bother with Downing? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoochie Bloochie Mama Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Rovers Director outlines January plans & contract talks | Lancashire Telegraph Seems only Dack and Rothwell have 1-year extension clauses in their contracts.

EwoodGlory Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 We already knew this, there is no way nyambe will sign a new deal in our position, it should have been done a year ago. He will get offers in January. Being benched earlier for JRC as good as he is won't help I would hope rothwell would if we offer something now. Dack wants to play in the premier league, so we would have to go up for him to sign an extension. His injury does compliate things so it would be a gamble. Offer him a big deal now or dont. The money wasted on other things kind of makes it so you would try and do something, he should be on par or more than. Gallagher . I would offer a big money 3 or 4 year deal now and tempt him, or just risk losing him. Dolan only has 18 months left, he should be offered a long term deal now with Harvey going back to Liverpool, or this will be another repeat. We need to start being a step ahead for once. Dolan should be part of our future with trav and JRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenrover Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Where is Swag these days anyway? The last 2 press releases on contract matters have been by Mowbray, Sylvester and Cheston. Surely as CEO it's his responsibility? Is he locked down in Tier 3 Kent? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davulsukur Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I figured we'd trigger the 1 year option on his deal but i didn't think we'd get him tied down to another 3 years. Awesome news. Nyambe next please 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoochie Bloochie Mama Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Huge boost for Rovers as Bradley Dack signs long-term deal | Lancashire Telegraph Until summer 2023 .... and another year option in the clubs favour after that. Nyambe next hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superniko Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Great news and hopefully shows the commitment to other players that we’re still intent on progressing, leading to them signing too (Nyambe primarily) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrich Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Great news that Dack has signed a 3 year deal and with an option in our favour so effectively 4. This the season to be jolly 🎄 I am curious to know if there is a release clause and if so how much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was done a year ago. A year and 8 months ago but still. April 2019. We made the utterly batshit decision to make it a 2 year deal. With no extension option by all reports so far. I said at the time it would be a problem and lo and behold... In fairness, the shortness of it may have come from Nyambe or his agent. We are usually very keen to add those one year extensions in our favour, so it suggests either his camp didn't want to commit to 3 years, or that if they did they insisted it not be at the club's whim (in which case we should have given a guaranteed 3 yr without hesitation). However, any reluctance from his end very likely came from the fact that Elliott fucking Bennett kept being deemed a better option. I wouldn't have been keen on committing long term either if I were him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good news though, secures him contractually for the rest of his best years (assuming he comes back the player he was). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_the_beast Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 My hope is that this at least shows negotiations are under way when previous signs were not encouraging going off of Mowbrays comments. It could also coincide with contact from the owners. Reports stating they have been contacted regarding the desperate need for a new centre back so maybe we've been given the green light... Others, Nyambe most of all seriously need to follow. Possibly a chance though that Dack was an easier deal to secure given his injury as he may not have been receiving a pay rise. Either way. Great he's signed. Fingers crossed we've got the go-ahead and more are to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
