£2 million? Accringtons record fee received from a transfer would be about £15k at most I reckon. Kayden Jackson to Ipswich Town £1m

Wednesday can't get £1 million for a 28 yr. old striker who has shown that he can score goals in the championship. Who writes this garbage? Who cares how much Accrington will want for the player? How much will they accept? Not sure that we would want him anyway.

How much will they accept? Not sure that we would want him anyway. this refers to Accrington's record fee for a player.Undisclosed fee, reputedly £1 million. bought by Ipswich in 2017 when they were in the Championship and managed by his former manager. Obviously didn't do much for Ipswich as they got relegated and are in League One ever since. I reckon he has scored about 15 goals in 3 seasons. Who would you get for £2 million in the present financial climate? How many clubs in the Championship could afford a £2 million fee if you leave out the 3 clubs who have just come down.

Joshua Dean Windass (born 9 January 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Sheffield Wednesday. He can also play as a forward. He also played for Accrington Stanley who reputedly received 60K as compensation when he signed for Rangers.
So I was definitely wrong in suggesting that their record fee was 15K. I forgot that they weren't like Stoke City who can't get a £15k fee for any one of about a dozen players with a combined purchase price of at least £50 million. Maybe we should look at whoever is doing their dealings, altho' I think MON has knocked our former stupidity in the market on the head. I think a lot of players are getting a rude awakening, even though many of them deserve better and have just been unlucky when their contracts ran out. Others have been very lucky to have long term deals at high wages that they really don't deserve.

Papers usually round these things up Probably more like £1.5m Factor in rock bottom wages, it's a low cost deal Interesting with the info that last season was his first real season as an out and out central striker 19 goals whilst not playing for a top team in that league is impressive We don't know if he can repeat that a league higher,that's the gamble. Struggling to see who we can get who isn't a gamble.

Not a chance we’ll pay that much for him is there?
Can see it ending there but surely starting at the 500/750k mark?

Accrington finished 7 points of the play offs in League One. I don't know what wages he would accept, but if he is anything like 28 yr. old Charlie Wyke of Sunderland who allegedly is looking for £20 k a week, I would just think that it is a joke. I have never seen him play but surely we must have somebody who can watch him for 20 minutes and tell you whether he is worth signing or not. The really good and the really bad players are obvious, even to a blind man on a galloping horse with a bag over his head. It is the inbetweenies who can look a million dollars if they are played correctly and in the right system that we need to be spotting. If our scouts cannot find these players then the scouts need to join the ranks of the unemployed.

Certainly knows where the net is, shots headers toe pokes and the spectacular! Could be a shrewd one this, if there is any substance to it that is.

Regardless the days of unearthing unhreard of gems in Oxford reserves or in a div 4 side are long gone Every club at our level is aware of every player right through into non league, there's no secrets anymore.

Demba Ba was a one trick pony who has played for at least 9 clubs. Chelsea signed him from Newcastle Utd. When The Chelsea coaching staff got him on the training groundthey could not understand how he had been signed. He was only good at running into space after an over the top ball and hopefully finishing. Not exactly the kind of player you need when you are a side who pins the opposition in their own goalmouth with no space behind their defence. I don't think that he played many games for Chelsea despite the big fee paid for him. Clubs still make mistakes over signings.

We need someone like him....just pay it!! Are you his agent? A player who has been in league football for 2 years and aged 25 shows his hunger has got him to have a decent season in old Div 3. If we did go for him i think a price bracket of £500k rising to £750k based on performance would be a realistic valuation.

I would have thought a bid of £0.25M plus a few add ones would be in order considering the current difficulties caused by covid.

I’d be great at it. We need better than Matondo unless we can sign him cheap like 250k and on 4K a week. He’s a project. We don’t need a project on loan. Think we'll see a different Matondo this time around. I don’t

Leicester plucked Vardy from Fleetwood at a similar age....n I'm sure Leicester fans would have had their say at the time aswell n look how that turned out....we shouldn't be turning our noses up at players from lower divisions..just a low risk gamble.

Sadly, this sort of a thing could be inevitable. Not many clubs will be able to spend and those that do won’t be spending at normal levels. The advantage for the selling club is that the money they receive will stretch further if they wish to spend it on new players. Not good is it?
