Templar Saint Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Ryan Gauld sold for £2.2 million then given a buy out clause value of £48 million so what price and value our goal machine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rik2304 Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Ryan Gauld scored 8 goals and went for £3million. Stevie May scored 27 last year. Over 3 times as many as Gauld, so May is worth £75million easy. ODAB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave H Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Price and value are different. Price would be anything over £1 million. Value probably £5 million with £20 million buy out clause. If he ever decides to further his career what ever we sell for, will be no where near is hero status and we fans will feel short changed.

ODAB Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 It'll depend on whether he signs a new contract. If he rejects it, Saints bargaining power is dramatically lowered. Hope he signs a new deal and stays for another year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
541ntees Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 not sure if the goals thing was a wind up but id expect a striker to score more than a mid fielder . if he signs on the main thing is getting a sell on percentage put into the contract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheYellowBox Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) It'll depend on whether he signs a new contract. If he rejects it, Saints bargaining power is dramatically lowered. Hope he signs a new deal and stays for another year.Agreed. If he signs, then 1.5m, if not 750k-1m would be accepted in this window. However, either is under valuing him. Clubs down south know that they can pay peanuts for out best players. Part of me wants saints to say 2m take it or leave it and stick to their guns, even if it means only getting a development fee in 12 months, but then a club like saints isn't really in a position to do that.

55saint Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 What is this obsession with selling Stevie? He has only played one full season for Saints and it appears everybody including the Chairman wants to sell him - why? He was pivotal in a very successful season - has probably generated more than his projected transfer fee in one season for the club (cup runs/cup winner's money and league position bonus) - if Peterborough had come up with the money he would have probably gone for a reported £300k - that would have been a good deal What is his speculated £1m transfer fee actually going to do for the club? - Saints do not appear to be in financial trouble and assuming Saints want to have some sort of continuing success, then we are going to have to replace him - at what price? or are we going to do the same with the likes of Chris Kane (if he is as successful). Above all Stevie has reportedly never asked for a transfer, wants to play for the club, is a local hero and all Saints appear to want to do is cash in on him ASAP. Give him an acceptable 3 year contract - he's worth it - and if he does move on Saints will still benefit. FFS let's have some ambition - tell the world Stevie is NOT for sale - he has a job to do and wants to do, at the club Rant over No doubt this will generate the usual, - stop moaning - we won a cup - we are a family club - etc nonsense Pelosi, Cleveland-Saint, The Great Paddy Buckley and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been unthinkable had he left for either of those two and as you say, what cost to replace him. I'd like nothing more than to see May offered a 2 or 3 year contract and with the younger players like Kane and Brown in the squad the future looks promising.

Don't disagree with any if your points. No, in an ideal world, we wouldn't want to sell him, but as soon as a few clubs start sniffing around him, the reality is that he will go. I personally don't want to sell him. Totally agree that he generated more than the 300k we might have got for him at the start of the season. Not sure what saints would do with say 1m though. I'd imagine it will be banked and like the Callum Davidson money, kept for a rainy day and benifiting from the interest. Certainly it won't be spent on players. I would however like to see any money re invested in the youth scheme. That is clearly the way forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 I dont understand why we are comparing Gauld with May, they are two different types of players, luke shaw went for £30m he never even scored!!

Broon Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Just shows how poor value the English market is. 30 million for a decent full back in his first season. Nuts. Stevie May is worth however much a top six finish and a cup is worth, we wouldn't have got them without him. Wendy Saints 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akuram Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Nothing less than £2 million up front with future sell-ons built in. Can't understand why not because if he had been an old firm player you would not even start at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't understand why not because if he had been an old firm player you would not even start at that. But he's not an Old Firm player. If he played for Barca he'd probably be worth £5m at least. But he doesn't. He playes for a small club (in the grand scheme of things) with little opportunity to radically change their income without selling players and has one year left on his contract. dave mc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inchcolm Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 What price and value our goal machine? Whatever a Championship or Div 1 team is willing to pay. I believe would be sold for £500,000 plus add ons although his value is twice that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ex-montrosesaintee Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 I can't remember the club ever saying anything other than 'stevie wants to stay'. It's folk on here who seem so keen for the club to sell him.
