I’m all for signing someone from the conference with a good record,
I’m not going to pretend I have players in mind. I don’t have that level interest in other teams and players.
He's 23, he's quick, he's powerful and he's averaging a goal every other game for a middling national league side. As a comparison Ben Seymour is 22.
Two goals in open play against anyone above 17th according to an earlier post.
You should know with your member name where Tony came from. So what’s wrong with us trying to do the same again , there could be another decent non league player out there just waiting for us to sign him.
What do you regard as very low wages ?
“Very” may have been flippant from me. I’d want it to be low relative to other strikers in our league. Especially if we pay £50k compo (estimate based on guesswork) you have to take into account that’s almost another £1000 week out of the budget. Again, with the amount of out of contract players there will be available, I think up front money on compo can be better used elsewhere.
Not sure on wages however he wouldn't join us on a very low salary, why would he do that ?? Whatever we think he is likely to be in demand, I imagine wherever he ends up he is likely to be on over 1.5k a week, could be a lot more, depends who comes in for him.
So you would be happy with £1.5k a week, and up to what compo fee would you be willing to include?
Not sure on a compensation figure, I don't know what a club like Boreham Wood would get.
Again, I’m not sure on actual figures. Let’s say that and established league to striker is on £2k a week for the sake of this post, then then perhaps around £1000-1300. The compensation is the key figure though if a fee couldn’t be agreed beforehand. Obviously if he’s on £1000 a week and we pay £50,000 then it’s as good as £2000 a week overall.
