NickG Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 understandably, offered half what was previously agreed to make deal perm http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4360790.Wotte_frustrated_at_Dyer_transfer_saga/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickmick Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 But if we get new owners in soon, then we will be calling the shots. Could be just the player we need to get of of league 1. Or get a decent enough fee for him so that we can buy a right back and put James right midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulletsaint Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 They are probably holding out in case we cease to exist. Then I'd imagine they can have him for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnet Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 It does baffle me that we can hold out for more money in the sitution we're in. Last month we needed 500k to get to the end of the season. Surely 300k for Dyer would keep us alive for few weeks longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 if we don't pay his next wage cheque (I'm unclear now the official date we start paying him again) it will be a breach of contract and he is free to walk I'd of thought. At the moment our hand looks weak. Lets see if that changes tomorrow though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smirking_Saint Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 Bite the bullet and make him come back. If they agreed a fee make them match it. As for the we need the money thing, if we really need to sell him to keep us affloat to give us more time to find a buyer i feel we may as well end it all now. If i was Swansea i would make the offer, they don't know who is likely to come in and whether the goal posts move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Window Cleaner Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 I worked with a guy once who insisted that all Welsh were pikeys anyway. Probably because his (welsh) wife threw him out for constant womanising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_Porter Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 Same article in the Echo says Ipswich have made a small bid for Bart but we're going to wait and see what happens with Davis before making a decision. Wotte says signing Davis to another contract is his number one priority over the summer and if he stays he will sell Bart to Ipswich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 It sounds like Swansea are trying it on with a rushed bid, and they must realise that a new well-funded owner coming in next week would ask them for a million. Yes we are desperate for funding to get us to a takeover date but we aren't simple, not even by Resolven standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torbay Saint Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 A friend of mine who writes for a welsh paper covering Swansea emailed me the following when I sent him the article link. 1. Swansea did want to do a deal in january but got messed around by saints board 2. When saints decided that offer was good enough, situation had changed dramatically. I.e. administration. 3. It has nothing to do with wotte what price Swans pay In fact he thinks that Swansea will look elsewhere if it drags on much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 Martinez likes to have his squad for the new season in place well before most other teams, add that to the fact that we desperately need money and it makes sense for Swansea to come in with a low offer. I'd expect Saints to do the same if we were in their position. No doubt Dyer will end up joining them on a permanent basis eventually, but it's just a question of who gives in first, Swansea or Saints. If we can get a fee of around 500-750K then I think we've got a relatively good deal, even if we do get taken over in the coming days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank's cousin Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 Dyer is worth at least 1 mil whatever some may say - he absolutely destroyed league 1 opposition in the CCC a few years back and we should do all we can to hang on... Just the tight wads after a bargin - vultures are circulating....barstewards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torbay Saint Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 (edited) Not the same friend of yours who's still looking for his scanner in the roof then? That wasn't obvious was it? Believe it or not W.C. some of us actually have more than one friend. And to answer your question no. Believe it or not, I don't care.
