Ollie Watkins

[Banksy]

Haha Banksy : you've been counting the money for 2 weeks now...

Must admit like Snakebite above I reckon now would be better for us. Obviously , I hope all goes well for Ollie’s sake but it would only take a niggly injury to stop the games and goals and our additional money.

For obvious reasons (potential injury, loss of form, managerial fallouts etc) CASH now I say.

How long will we be dreaming about the Ampadu money I wonder?

I believe (having not seen the film myself) there's a quote from "Jerry Maguire" that is apt here.

I agree. The probability is that it won't happen but Palace could easily be desperate enough to make a crazy last-minute bid approaching 20 million that Brentford can't refuse. Still not sure it would be the best thing for Ollie, though. Palace have an aging squad and these last minute transfers often don't work out. Plus the Brentford fans seem to think he would benefit from another season of Championship football.

the thing is I'm no longer interested in what's best for ollie, as selfish as that is, I'm only interested in the amount of money ECFC receive. I couldn't care less if they sold him to the Greek second division so long as the money was right.

A compromise would be to want the best for City and hope it's the best for Ollie.

With Neal Maupay leaving Watkins may play more centrally which could mean more goals, more goals generally equals higher value, i.e. we may get more further down the line if he stays at Brentford, just a thought.

The more successful our ex-players are the better the reputation of Exeter City will be which will hopefully lead to our current players being sold for more.
