If either Stoke or Brum offer anywhere near £1.6million 15:28 - Aug 10 with 4503 views | Cheltenham_Blue | for Jackson, we should probably take it. However, I'm going for £450k, which we won't take and then we'll lose him on a free. | |

If either Stoke or Brum offer anywhere near £1.6million on 15:31 - Aug 10 with 3839 views | AlexGreen | Agreed, although to be honest I think I'd rather lose him on a free in two years time vs lose him now for 450K. | |

Exactly. It's only value to Evans if he wants to put less in per year. What it actually does is weaken our position considerably. | |

Nope, but he'll say he wants to leave for 'personal reasons' and we'll give him away. | |

I'm thinking Kayden Jackson is now starting questioning his agents advice to turn down a new deal? .....no scope for us to improve it now, and limited incentive for us to sell to a Championship side. | |

I might be wrong, but it looks to all intents and purposes that Jacksons agent is hawking him about the Championship and from Jackson's quote - "Whatever is going on is separate to everything. I don’t really deal too much on that side, it’s down to the agent." I'd say he knows that his agent is talking to clubs too. If he's got his head elsewhere, I'd rather he not be here personally. | |

His agent has f*cked up timing wise. | |

Unfortunately if the player wants to move on and earn a lot more than he can do here, there is little Town can do. As you say, he will no longer get an improved contract here, so best all round we sell and get as much as we can for him. We COULD refuse to sell, but that would not benefit anyone and an unhappy player would affect the whole squad. Get rid. | |

We are in a situation where we may not be able to buy a replacement. Refuse to sell if that's the case, like we did with McGoldrick. Only sell if it suits the club. We should learn for the summer of 2018. | |

Rather than hawking as such, the agent may be trying to generate interest to get increased terms - from what I'm told he's on a lot less than Norwood - but I don't think there's a genuine clamour from Championship clubs, aside from Blackburn having a look in January. As others have said, we can't sell him at the moment as we'd not be able to replace him. | | | |

Isn't it unlikely that he'll see increased terms now though? | |

Someone needs to tell his agent about this salary cap thingy. Also, someone needs to explain to his agent; We paid a huge fee for Jackson, so less money available to wages. Norwood was a free, so pockets a bigger wage packet. It's all very simple football economics. [Post edited 10 Aug 2020 16:12]

We'll need to wait and find out when the transfer deadline is before selling him two days beforehand like we did with Murphy. | |

Yes, not sure the implications of the cap have been fully understood by a lot of people, wouldn't surprise me if agents were among them, not least as the £113,000 average figure is higher than had been anticipated. The best chance he has of getting a better deal is Town getting promoted.

You realise it isn't black and white? Just because he wants more money, or would be interested in a move doesn't mean he is desperate to go and won't be happy if he does stay. Using our attitude any time a player has their head turned by interest we'd get rid and end up with no one | |

If either Stoke or Brum offer anywhere near £1.6million on 16:48 - Aug 10 with 3287 views | ArnieM | Why take less than we paid for him when he was a League Tel player ? This kind of approach is what makes Town so poor In the transfer market these days . Pay top dollar for incoming players in either fee or wages Let good players leave ( allow contracts to run down ) and get sod all for them, you don’t see scum do this very often . We’re always doing it ! | |

I agree. For a successful businessman, ME has had a very poor record in this department. | | | |
