JacknOry Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 We should planning for life in the Championship and seeing as Brum want shut off Lowe, it is very clear that he is not a Championship level player. Smallwood has shown how much of a better player he is. Getting tired of these Lowe rumours tbh and I really don't think TM will bring him in. More worrying is the continued Dack rumours. He looks to be loving it here and I don't think he himself will be actively seeking a move. More worrying is the money men that might see 5 million from 750k being a good earners within 6 months.

G Somerset Rover Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Kamy’s referred to ‘some national media’ and the photo is of a throwaway paragraph from one of the red tops. We’d be bonkers to sell him this window and he seems very happy. Nothing to see here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth at least 10 mil if Pritchard is worth 11 million.

Rovers and Mowbray will resist any bids for any key players and probably next season aswell IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Cairney now priced around the £20 million mark. Even the money men would be better off keeping him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamy100 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Journalists in Cardiff and some nationals claiming that we have rejected a £4 million bid for Dack. I get the feeling that with his performances this season that Cardiff and others will be back. That said and unless Dack pushes for a move (no evidence that this is the case) then I can see Rovers/Venky's resisting unless of course someone makes a ridiculous bid.

Dack has been outstanding this season so its not surprising he will attract interest. There's not much more we can do than chuck the offers in the bin one by one as they come in. Selling Dack would spell the end of any promotion challenge imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom Tom Posted January 22, 2018 Backroom Share Posted January 22, 2018 Selling Dack for any money shouldn't be considered, it would signal a huge change in feeling and take the wind right out of the promotion campaign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islander200 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 For what it's worth Nixon is adamant we won't sell Dack. I don't think we will sell this window I know teams tend to pay a little more in the January window but his value won't decrease drastically between now and the summer. If promotion is secured and if a big enough offer comes in then unfortunately I could see Venkys cashing in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueboy3333 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 You don't sell your goalscorer. It would be like selling Speedie before we got promotion. Dack is a phenomenal finisher. He rarely misses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately you've just disproved your own argument there using Cairney as the example. Looking at him now he's one of the most sought after players outside the Premier League and has become an integral player for Fulham in two promotion pushes. Newcastle were rumoured to be interested and were quoted £20 million and WBA were looking last week with reported £15 million bids. Yet we sold him unnecessarily a couple of years ago for just £3 million, despite his obvious potential and importance. So that's what can happen when the money men make the decisions - we accept bids for our best players, even from league rivals, they move on, the money disappears and the player goes on to be worth 5 or 6 times what we received for him - on that occasion the money men made the decision to sell and yet hindsight tells us that was a bad decision both footballing and financially. Lets just hope they aren't calling the shots any more and there aren't any immediate payments need making for which a few million would come in useful. Proof will be in the pudding - if we're serious about keeping him here at all costs then interested clubs will be given the short shrift and we'll hear no more about it - if we're open for business then we'll have a week of rumour, speculation and bids. Nothing we can do about clubs bidding for our players but the way we respond to those bids is the key - a firm rebuttal and no deal to be done line and the chances are they'll move on to alternatives - if we appear to be entertaining bids then they'll come back as will other clubs.

Selling Dack would spell the end of any promotion challenge imo I think in football word gets round the grounds with agents etc. If a club wants one of our players but knows we are determined to keep him at all costs then most wouldn't even bother making a bid as they know it would go straight into the bin and wouldn't go any further. When clubs keep coming back for more with increased bids it tends to be because they're confident the other club will back down and do a deal, usually because they get encouragement along the way either from someone involved in the selling club or the player concerned.

Bigdoggsteel Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 The problem I can see is his head getting turned by someone like Villa bidding. He could be looking at being in the Premiership next season. I hope he shows us loyalty for the faith we have shown in him. I think he will.

rovers11 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I think Dack will stay UNLESS a premier league club comes calling. It wouldn't massively surprise me if he Did, he certainly has the technical ability to play in the prem. Exceptional player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see. I don't think we'll sell unless something truly exceptional transpires and by that I mean a Premiership Club coming in with 12m plus. Certainly not Cardiff piddling about with poxy 4m bids. From a footballing point of view he shouldnt be sold at any price this window. What's the cost of being stuck in League one indefinitely?

AggyBlue Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 The lad knows he can play in the Championship next season, either with us or through a summer move.

I know all the footballing arguments, and I don't think for one minute Mowbray would agree to it happening. The question is whether Mowbray is in complete control here or whether there are other elements behind the scenes who have the power to sway decision making. Those people might be quite happy with a 6 fold profit in the space of 6 months. Fortunately, up until now, Mowbray appears to have been backed and they haven't led him a merry dance like they did with Bowyer. Time will tell but if we keep getting daily rumours of new clubs and bids I'll become increasingly concerned as a robust not for sale line needs issuing and I will grow worried if it appears the club is open to negotiation and offers, which will lead more and more to the table.

If Venkys or their cohorts make a decision to sell then it won't matter what Dack wants or what Mowbray wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
