yeah of course. Stupid deal from Notts imo How is it stupid? what if he scores 5 goals this season. No one higher up will want to pay that price tag for him and no one in this league will be able to afford him. If Notts go up but he doesn't score much its all mcgoldrick and then they are in the same predicament. It's banking on his scoring 15+ goals. I wouldn't want us giving olaofe a 4 year deal even if he'd scored 40+ goals We've seen it where we've given players a 3 year deal and they've not proved them selves in a higher league.

What if he scores another 20+ goals this season and he's out of contract at the end of the season ot end of next season and they have to let him go on the cheap? Really don't see how offering your top scorer and biggest asset a new contract is stupid.

Its a gamble a. nyway whatever they do. Short contract and a player leaves for nothing thats worth a big fee. A long contract with a player whose form really dips means you can be stuck with a player on good money who is getting to be worthless by the game.

Even Wrexham don't offer mullin a 4 year deal. Surely a 2 or 3 year deal with the option of another year if he does something would've made more sense

'Of all the teams mentioned, the infrastructure, professionalism and budget of Stockport give them the strongest chance to challenge for the title. That said, Carlisle’s promotion to League One and Luton’s promotion to the Premier League, both with one of the lowest budgets in their relative divisions, were a wonderful reminder of what the game can throw up in terms of surprises. Both teams act as inspiration for outsiders and underdogs such as us.'Grimsby's chairman fancies us for the title. www.theguardian.com/football/2023/aug/08/new-football-season-hope-hugging-strangers-league-two

There are some players no matter how good they are that i would not want them to feel too comfortable at a club as there form could dip with complacancy setting in. Doubt they feel he is like that as the offer would not have been made in the first place.

What would be the point of that?

We've been giving 3 year deals to players in the twilight of their careers, they've given one to a player on the up and improving year on year. It could backfire, but they're protected, to an extent, from him being poached on the cheap

Said the same on the other board, but I doubt anyone saying he's 'not the same' has actually watched him enough to draw that conclusion. Despite issues at Chesterfield after his Birmingham move fell through, he was still scoring a goal every 106 minutes. Peterborough's not worked out for him as he's barely played, but it's stupid to write the bloke off after a jump of two divisions, that's only lasted 3/4 months of season time, hasn't worked out.

Chesterfield fan I saw when he went last January said he wasn't the same tbf. But obviously that's a subjective view, could have been bitterness at him leaving. Not sure though, Paul Cook didn't seem to be in love with him.

There was talk of the toys being thrown out of the pram when Birmingham tired lowballing Chesterfield at the last minute over something in his medical and Chesterfield told them where to go. It's still not a bad scoring rate for someone in and out of the team.
