Re: Clarke Osborne

I think the majority of you with your small valuations are being very naive (I'm glad your not the club accountant) ...

If you go back ten years ago or so we signed Leon Constantine for 80K and your saying a proven goalscorer one level below to where we were back then is only worth 50k is laughable 😂 plus you have to take into account his age and the type of striker he is.
However, keeping hold of him, get us promoted and we'd see his valuation treble...

Vardy got signed for 1 million in league 2
Ollie Watkins 1.8m
Matt Grimes 1.5m
Jayden Stockley 750,000
Ampadu 1.5m
Macualey Bonne 500,000

Even David Graham went for 200,000 15years ago and I'd say Reid is a much better finisher..

50k is very naive

Re: Clarke Osborne

I'm pretty sure Exeter released him and then we signed him as he was a bosman... Could be wrong.

Also selling Jamie Reid now wouldn't make financial sense seeing as we would at most get 200,000 for him... Like others have said, promotion to the football league and all there extra endorsements that comes with it would be worth much more than cashing in on him now, I have it also on a good source that it was a 2 year deal he signed.

BT broadcasts

If you have plusnet internet then you can add bt sports into your sky package for just £12 a month.
If you have an EE contract and you have the right tariff you can add bt sport on for £5 a month and then ‘cast’ it onto your tv.
If not then I don’t think there’s a lot of other choice without paying the full whack.

Ex-Gull watch

I don't blame him as such, however I would rather play week in week out at conf standard as oppose to playing in a development league or maybe not playing at all.

Having said that maybe he didn't have much choice at the time given our financial problems

2019/2020 Kits

Perhaps the club want a steady income stream, it seems to all be about season tickets atm and the anniversary shirt, not everybody can afford three big costs at once and maybe the club will push the new kits once the volume in season tickets and anniversary shirt has settled down.

Just typed Torquay United into Google just to see if we'd signed anyone... For a minute thought our two marquee signings were Stuart Morgan and Les Chapel...

Dan Lavercombe released by Wigan... Should of stayed with us... Could be a decent back up to Mcdonald next season... Although I would prefer a much more experienced keeper to push our no1.

Season tickets 19/20

£145 a season ticket because they have star players such a Ben Gerring....

No in all seriousness there chairman probably knows they are such a shower of shit that it would be unfair to charge anymore...
