Looks like the admin is gearing up to reveal a new contract for Marv..
Brilliant news, let’s get Josh tied down as well
Indeed.Great news
Even the most negative of people on here surely feel were not going down this season.The club probably think we're not getting relegated so can offer a bit more money for longer.
There's some on here need to remind them we're not mathematically safe yet.
He's been incredible since joining us.
How do we know if Blackpool offered a four year deal and Marv and his agent said they'd only accept a two year deal?Feel a touch underwhelmed with just a 2 year deal. Still, good to see the club being proactive.
Forgot about Tharme and in 2 years time he will be ready to partner Casey in the middle of the defence.Perfect bit of business.He is still here,protects his value and buys time for the conveyor belt in Casey and Tharme.
Sounds about right this. I think he has it in him to go to the top flight so probably wants to see how we do next season. Maybe it also protects the club too in case he suffers an injury next season. Paying Championship wages maybe means less 3 year plus contracts?How do we know if Blackpool offered a four year deal and Marv and his agent said they'd only accept a two year deal?
I think it's very good news and hopefully they'll be a few more announcements in the next few weeks
In the words of Montgomery Burns - “Excellent”In the words of the great Barry Davies, 'Look at his face, just look at his face!'
You just have to love that smile.
The way round that could be to incentivise his contract with a % of the transfer fee. For example he eventually is sold for say 15 million and from that Josh gets 10% = 1.5m or 20% = 3m.Great news about Marv.
Regarding Josh I cannot see anyway he will sign a new deal unless we are happy to increase his salary 4 or 5 times. Unfortunately paying those type of wages for our club is not sustainable. Let's enjoy him whilst he is here and then get maximum price for him in the summer that we can. He will be hard to replace but we will.
That's only one word.In the words of Montgomery Burns - “Excellent”
He always whispers the other word - “tosser”That's only one word.
It’s feels like 2 years suits both parties. For the club it’s two years on his contract so if someone does come calling in the summer…very possibly….we get a good fee. For Marv he is 26 and in his prime and will only be 28 at contract end, he might feel one last big move on a free (if we don’t sell him in the meantime) in two years time with a big signing on fee ( return home down south?) is the way to go. For me this is in no way the contract length is limited by the club, this is down to negotiation. It’s interesting for me there is no option of a further year which generally is standard for us and says to me Marv was only willing to sign for 2 years.How do we know if Blackpool offered a four year deal and Marv and his agent said they'd only accept a two year deal?
