And/or another player that you can make a profit on in future.

I did say a few weeks ago things would have to be run more sustainably. Thus, transfers like these are inevitable.
So basically we are skint and are unlikely to reinvest the full Collins & Thomason fee's ?

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Michael Smith has agreed his release from Sheff Weds, club should do all they can to get him providing he doesn't have offers from the championship. He is exactly what we need, a game changer IMO. He’s 34 soon. Might be worth a one year deal, but not someone I’d be going all out for. Its all about ...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

I’d say that him going to Wrexham a league up is a big loss and we will need a quality replacement. Sheehan is not the answer to anything other than staying in league one and Morley doesn’t and can’t do what Thomason does. But money talks I guess they see Simons as a better fit for a 4-2-3-1 jmjhb ...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Its creeping up, the fee is now £1.2M according to some.

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

It means we'd have to replace him hopefully with someone as good or better but if Wrexham can't find/attract anyone better then what chance do we have? Simons, Thomason, Morley and Sheehan is an exceptional midfield for this level but without Thomason we have another big gap to fill (that's what sh...

It would be a great move for the lad, even if he would be a bench warmer.

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

The Thomason rumour is certainly gathering momentum on the socials - fee apparently £1M.

Gun, it's not negative just my realistic & honest assessment - however I don't expect many to agree and I would love to be proved wrong. BWFCI - ambition was probably the wrong word to use, I meant how serious the club are in backing SS and providing him with the required funds to give him a realis...

Re: Pre-season 2025

At it stands today IMO we will still finish 6th or 7th at best, others in this league have strengthened well (Blackpool, Huddersfield, Orient etc.) as well as the teams who came down from the championship. Taylor as a LB do me a favour, he should be CB at the side of either Forino or Toal. Inwood is...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Got a funny feeling that our next captain is already here. Forino. I'm not saying that your wrong, and its only my personal opinion but I really hope he's not. 1. I'm not totally convinced by him as a player never mind a captain. 2. I think that we need someone a little more vocal & can lead by exa...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Thomason inspires a (to me) truly surprising level of hatred from some of our fans. BWFCi's right that everyone has a price and you can't dictate demand, but I would have thought he's one of Schuey's preferred players. He works hard, which is clearly a non-negotiable. He's been happy to adapt to di...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

When the team was not doing well last season I'm sure the sentiment was along the lines of "sell everyone and start over". Now, we collectively don't want to sell Thomason. My question is how well did he do last season? Interesting on YouTube yesterday, going through some of the interviews from Mar...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Should clarify that I didn’t see us challenging for the top 2 in May and still don’t now. I suspect we are fighting for 6th-4th at best. Is there anything that could change your mind bwfci before the season kicks off? Probably not - always we have to hope but there are some strong sides again in th...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

I know the question was to BWFCI, but for what its worth IMO if we where to bring in a Liam Cooper type leader / captain and a proven goal scorer (i.e. a Jatta or a Michael Smith) and Kenny from Celtic I think that we could challenge for the top 2

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

I meant to say I’d rather stick with what we have. Warm weather, beer and in-laws got in the way 😊 The article published this morning by Marc Iles, he sounds quite upbeat and I can’t remember him being this optimistic pre season , anyway 3 weeks today, can’t wait. I'm not sure exactly where this op...
