Coming in goat
DCL is already here
Same as Pickford would be offered a contract in excess of that again too.
But we simply are not offering contracts anywhere close to the crazy days of yore.
Need evidence then check the contracts of any incoming player since Thelwell came in.

Huge difference between offering a contract to avoid losing a 30+ million asset for nowt and offering a incoming player that as a base
I reckon Tarks is on at least 100k.
But I agree, no more Andre Gomes or Yerry Mina for 120k a week.

The policy is clearly not to offer big contracts then prohibits moving the plaster on at a future time.
See Holgate, Keane, and a host of others over the past five years for evidence of if why we adopted that policy

Best sources say Tarks is on 80-85k or thereabouts.
Thelwell has a very very clear idea and it's not just because we are piss poor either.

We have spent on players over the age of 25 a total of 3m (Gueye) everyone else has been a free or loan, why because the resale value finishes over the purchase price and often you're left holding the wage of an unwanted player.
The only players of 25 have both been anomalies, centre forwards and literally emergency necessities, Maupay and Beto (for different reasons)
Every other our user has been on 25 or younger, a good amount of those on players who broke through then had a down year, or players who are in the verge of breaking through.
Agree re Tarks, actually thought it was closer to £120k (assuming his full contract value is spread evenly over the term, not front loaded by a signing fee)
Big difference of course is he didn’t come with a £22m (Gomez) and £25m (Mina) transfer fee too.
Think people get hung up on nominal weekly salaries rather than whole contract outlay.
Don’t see a problem paying a decent player ‘£120k per week’ on a 4 or 5 year contract as it’s ‘only’ £24m over the entire 4y term.
When you think both Mina and Gomez effectively cost double, that’s when it becomes a problem for our clubs meagre income.
Isn't his contract up soon?
Think that was just a rumour that the terminally wrong Esk started.

The date on the thread title is misleading if the threads are merged, surely in footballing terms it's 2024/25 now that we are past June 30th...
... and erm, you are not maximising your sponsorship potential.
