Re: ARTICLE: Have Burnley ditched moves for Dawson and Jay Rod?
We bid 15 million for them BOTH? or each?
Re: ARTICLE: Have Burnley ditched moves for Dawson and Jay Rod?
There's no way we should be offering more than £30m - that's already absolute top end in my view.

Re: ARTICLE: Have Burnley ditched moves for Dawson and Jay Rod?
It's weird really because, it seems really low, but taking into account the need for West Brom to sell, and Dawson having a year (I think) left, it sort of makes sense, 12.5 million each is a decent whack, but I guess in today's market it's nothing. If they are our main targets then spending 35 (or rising to 40 with add ons) would be acceptable, if we are then to spend another 6-8 million on another squad player.
Suppose we will see how it all unfolds.

Let them stew in their own juices. They are rapidly becoming as bad as Forest to deal with.
Arrogant tossers, I hope they are stuck with the pair of them for the duration of their contracts
and that the expense of doing so cripples them financially. It won't happen unfortunately, as there
is always some mug who will pay over the odds. Good luck to them I say.

Re: ARTICLE: Have Burnley ditched moves for Dawson and Jay Rod?
I'm certainly not convinced that's the end of the story. It's pretty clear they are our main targets and I think there is some negotiating still to be done. Time will tell of course but, as I wrote in the article, I think both will move on from West Brom.

I believe there is a deal to be done somewhere. As they have just sold their goalie perhaps Tom Heaton may fit into the equation?

. finds it staggering that:
1. Burnley may offer £30,000,000 for these two players
2. West Brom might actually turn it down

I haven't - right now I'm not expecting either to leave. Tom will very likely play at Aberdeen given that Pope will be late coming back in. It's an interesting one though, how do you manage two England goalkeepers in the same squad?Bertiebeehead wrote:Article written for Popes departure then?

West Brom have signed Sam Johnstone from United to replace Foster
Re: ARTICLE: Have Burnley ditched moves for Dawson and Jay Rod?
I’m not sure what West Brom is doing wrong here, really. If the shoe was on the other foot, we would be wanting our club to hold out for what we felt was a fair price.
From what I’ve seen in the WBA forums, the fans highly rate Dawson and think he has potential to push for an England place, if played at centre half.
I’m not saying we should be paying £40m but can see why West Brom are playing hard ball.

This was a hard lesson but we will get it sorted.T BH if we get Ben Mee signed up we dont need another cb.
If Jay doesnt come its sad but not the end of the world

Personally I think the longer we stay in the world cup will help us keep him. When he is home he will be given an extended break and then I would think it would be far too close to the end of the shortened transfer window for a deal to be doneClaretTony wrote:I haven't - right now I'm not expecting either to leave.

Yes we do! Kevin Long was relied on for too many games last season (admittedly did a lot better than I thought he would). With the added games we are hoping to have I'd be very uncomfortable with Long being anything higher than 4th choice centre back this season.Woodleyclaret wrote:Some posters are thinking back to the bad old days when we wasted money on Sordell and Juke panic signings at the end of the window.

Re: ARTICLE: Have Burnley ditched moves for Dawson and Jay Rod?
25m is plentiful for the pair.
All of us on here are expecting tough gamessage against Aberdeen and their top transfer target is 500k. Just because we're in the premier league we shouldn't pay way over the odds.

If Heaton plays against Aberdeen - and given the exceptionally high quality of his displays and the fact that he is (I'm assuming) still club captain - I don't see how Pope gets back in the team.ClaretTony wrote:I haven't - right now I'm not expecting either to leave.

Re: ARTICLE: Have Burnley ditched moves for Dawson and Jay Rod?
Can't believe people are panicking about signings being in before the Aberdeen game. We should have enough in our squad to beat them with the players that finished 7th in the Premier League last season. The main aim for us as always is to stay in the league. Therefore as long as we get a couple in before the window shuts (which I'm sure we will) I'll be happy.

Re: ARTICLE: Have Burnley ditched moves for Dawson and Jay Rod?
Let’s not get above our station here eh
West Brom are a bigger and wealthier club than Burnley.
They don’t need to sell their best players so hardly surprising that if the players and agents are trying to force their hand that they are going to try and get top dollar.
If we were in the same position (and we often are) i’d hope we would do exactly the same.
It’s not arrogance at all - and neither party is doing a lot wrong. We are trying to get the players for a as low a price as we can and they are trying to get as high a price as possible.
Completely irrelevant as to what fans think is a “fair” price for the players - that’s very subjective and no bearing on the deal anyway.
The thing that normally brings these kind of stand offs to a head is the players. If they refuse to play (like Tarks did btw) then it gives the club a big headache. As rich as West Brom are they also need a team that can get them promoted.
The other thing about West Brom holding out is that it brings in the chance of other clubs stumping up the asking price - and when there are moneybags desperate clubs like West Ham about who seem happy to pay over the odds for everyone they sign then that seems like a pretty reasonable strategy !
For what it’s worth I think we will get at least one of them but it may be late in the window and if nobody else comes in for them.

If we manage to get through to the Group stages of the Europa league we will need 2 excellent Goalkeepers. The window shuts before the last qualifier but at least we will know if we have a chance by then.
Hence I don't expect either keeper to leave in this window, unless we lose to Aberdeen.

SD has explained a few times the financial position of the club in that season and his priority of investing in infrastructure. We could have done what Hull did and spent £20m on strikers and still got relegated - and look at the 2 clubs now - which strategy do you think worked. We could have signed Defoe on 90k a week for 4 years like Sunderland....mmmmm ?
Name the clubs in the league who have wasted less money on transfers in the last 5 years than Burnley.
Name me a club who has a 100% successful transfer policy.

Two very good footballers but they are not of the quality to significantly improve on our current squad.
IMHO we need a couple of imaginative/creative players who can add that little bit of 'magic and unpredictability' to our play. Not cheap, difficult to find, yes, but they are out there and we should keep looking.
