Re: Aaron Morley
I reckon the deal for Morley is all but done already, or we've got someone else poised to come in (maybe even both). We'd be foolish to let the situation drag out a whole month.
Re: Aaron Morley
That’s exactly how it will play out.
Evatt is not the key here it will be Sharon as she holds the purse strings and Evatt has all but said he doesn’t want the player.
Re: Aaron Morley
Evatt may be a twat, but he won’t be the only decision maker here. Those running the club won’t want half a million pounds sitting, pissed off, on the bench. He can’t play for anyone else this season. I’m very optimistic Aaron Morley will be our player by the end of January.

Re: Aaron Morley
Evatt can come out with all the bluff, bluster and BS that he likes about AM's value and how Wycombe will have to meet that to keep him.
The reality is that Morley was such a big part of Evatt's grand plan that he was prepared to let his go out on a supposedly season long lone. If Morley had not hit the level of form he has shown, and/or Wycombe had not exceeded a mid table position then I doubt there would have been any plan to take him back in January.
Blooms and the people controlling the money at Wycombe are no mugs. They will not pay over the odds for any player. If Evatt and Bolton have come up with a price tag that is unrealistic then they will be stuck with a player they don't particularly want. With Bolton losing loads of money each year they are unlikely to have much to throw around in the January window, so a sensible deal is in everyones interest.
Re: Aaron Morley
For me it is simple, Morley has undoubtedly played very well during his loan period. Bolton have made a public declaration that he will go back to the ‘Tough Sheet’ in January unless we buy him from them at a fee they believe to reflect his market value.
We now have to decide whether signing Morley is a good investment at the quoted asking price, if not, we replace Morley with another squad member or we go and get a replacement and move on.
I would love him to sign but we simply cannot derail our brilliant season based on one player.
Re: Aaron Morley
My first comment on this. But my view is, Morley has undoubtedly been excellent and has played a big part for us this season so far. Would I like him to stay, and us buy him ? Yes of course I would, definitely ! But, Im probably right in assuming that Evatt will want double whatever we are willing to pay, because he's a twat ! I think 500k is about right and would be enough, I bet Evatt wants a million.
So, as much as I want Aaron to stay, I also don't want us to be held to ransom. So he goes back and we move on.
Remember last season everyone was so excited about Potts, he was the best thing since sliced bread, but this season the management team found Morley, who's even better (and Humphries) so what's to say if Morley goes they won't have someone else lined up already who could be better again ?
Re: Merry xmas gasroom
I like the line about the New Year being an exciting opportunity to build. I shall take it to mean they are willing to appropriately fund a promotion campaign.
Or we are getting a a chairlift.
