Title: Alfie May again
Post by: German Rover on March 24, 2023, 06:30:32 pm
Rumours in the press that he might be going to Wrexham for a 'big' transfer.

Would be good for him, and hopefully we have a decent sell on clause if they do.

Don't forget, he was not good enough for us and out of his depth in League One. Now it's us who are not good enough for him and are out of OUR depth in League one!

Hope he and Whiteman get big money moves so we can spend the  sell on money. Hopefully on players.

Wouldn’t want to see May play for us at the moment. Too likeable to see left alone feeding on scraps.

Ah is he going for free? Thought he had one more year. That’s a shame

Pretty sure his contract is up, really hope he gets a move and that he is still on contract

Whiteman has a deal at Preston North End until the summer of 2024 ie the end of next season.

According to this we only got £5k for Alfie but we do have a sell on clause!

£5K? It's enough to make one weep.

Sure that was him who just passed me on the way to Harworth, A May on his number plate, think he bought a house here.

I did see it said somewhere that we only got 5k for him but I always thought it was 50k.

With Alfie’s age and having only 1 year left, I can’t see us getting that much at all if he does go.

I heard that figure at the time as well
Title: Re: Alfie May again
Post by: roversdude on March 25, 2023, 01:44:56 pm
Surely a sell on is a percentage though
Title: Re: Alfie May again
Post by: Dutch Uncle on March 25, 2023, 02:11:19 pm
I have no basis or knowledge whatsoever of the situation, only speculation. But I would be very (pleasantly) surprised if we had a sell on clause. I always reckoned they were put in contracts when selling a young player that was likely to improve significantly. I don't think Moore in particular, and maybe thus others in the club, would have put Alfie in that category at that time.

And for the record I have always been a big Alfie fan, heavily swayed of course by his wonderfully engaging character. I was sad to see him go and delighted for him that he has done so well.

Long range shot by a Cheltenham player may must of been on edge of area yet he sum how beats 3 or 4 Wednesday players to the rebound of keeper giving them 3 or 4 yards start

BBC Match Stats for goal attempts in the 2-2 draw tonight:-

Cheltenham 15/8
Sheffield Wednesday 24/5

It must have been a very entertaining game.  We can only dream of stats like those - it would take us three or four games to get anything close!

what don’t you get??May was at the edge of the penalty area when the shot came yet he still beat. 3 or 4 Wednesday defenders to the ball when it came back off the keeper and the Wednesday players must of been 3 or 4 yards closer to goal
