Bailey and molyneux
« on December 13, 2025, 11:54:58 pm by Thorney »
Seriously need to tie both down on better contracts.

Bailey scoring and luke is getting attention from opposition fans.

Alot of cardiff fans today claimed molyneux looks very good. And ran bagan ragged

Fear we could see both get alot of attention come the last weekend in Jan.

for our third goal it was a great knock down from Brendan O'Callaghan for Kitch to score.

If any serious offers come in, we should be taking the cash.

As long as that cash is reinvested into the playing squad so we dont have to rely on Mr Bramall as much.
We should have took Plymouths money for McGrath.
Clubs like ours cannot afford to be run on sentiment, we can't even compete financially with about 10 clubs in lg1.

If £500k cones in for Bailey, take it abd then see if we can pick up the next owen Bailey AND Ben Whiteman for £300k.

If we sell our two arguably best players, who contribute heavily with goals and assists, at a time when we are already struggling it would be a bad move. Especially if the money is invested in signings which don’t match or improve the quality we would be letting go. I think it would make the task of staying up this season very difficult.

As Bob G said last week , the defest against Stockport  was maybe a turning point for fans’ attitude to the management and you seem to confirm that .I believe Grant is the best manager we could have at this stage in our position and I have faith in his January plans .

I agree. These 2 are our standout players every week and are bound to attract attention. We will struggle to replace either of them.

500k for Bailey seems cheap to me.
I can understand the McGrath argument but not the heartbeat of the team. Bailey is never injured, on a long contract and has now proven himself in a league one side struggling for wins.

I’d be fuming if we sold him for 500k

Not sure what you mean there Graing. 

Grant said himself about finding and coaching assets for the club.
We could potentially improve the squad by buying and selling. Would also negate the need for useless loan signings.

Could we trust that the money would be spent wisely? The strike rate with recruitment of late isn’t great.

Your mate BG is a fool who has no barometer whatsoever in order to gauge the mood of the supporters with regards to the manager. He just likes stirring s**T from afar.

Moly signed a new three year deal in May 2024 - so is under contract until May 2027.  Club might look to extend that next year...

Bailey penned a new three-year deal with the option of a further 12 months in July 2024 - so is currently under contract until July 2028.

Good to hear, though I believe Molyneux was hesitant and asked for more time to consider the contract offer.
Either way, neither can leave for nothing and unless a “crazy “ offer came in we’d be mad to let them go.

Molyneux is 28 in a few months. Quite late in the day for him to demand a fee as a winger.

This is absolutely bob on. Also we need to start selling players for money, but we are in the shit now so selling mainstays of this side now shouldn’t happen, especially when we’ve got nobody lined up and January is worst time to do business. By all means start monetising our talent properly but not now.

Or a Sbarra & Westbrooke.

Are you mad?

You’d condone selling the only two players we have in the squad who are capable of playing a division higher & at the bargain price of £500k?

You’d take that cash “…if we can pick up the next Owen Bailey AND Ben Whiteman for £300k.”

That’s a bloody big if.

   What we need to do is move on those that are unwanted and not used, How is the question.
  I believe and some will throw it back at me we have a couple in Flint and Faulkner that would  save much needed money, become wanted saleable assets over time, and would allow us  to spend on other areas in the team that need improving.
 If not they already are in a good place to play elsewhere and be our loss, and we can concentrate on getting loans in that are few and far between any improvement on what we already have and an extra cost.
  We keep signing u21s from premiership sides when our two main assets Molyneux  and Bailey came from non league as did Sterry, just a thought.

As said above, Moly's only just resigned so he's not going to entertain a further extension at this stage. He's probably at his optimum value right now, so if offers come in, and they match or exceed whatever is release clause is, then it's up to him if he wants to move on. Likely the same with Bailey.

It's not necessarily about the club holding out for the highest bids, it's whether those bids match whatever is in their contracts when they renegotiated them. If we try to insist on a value that's too high, then it can be seen as obstructing a player moving on so they simply wouldn't re-sign in the first place.

Suggesting that we sell our biggest assets as players and then hoping we can buy replacements is the sign of a defeatist who is quite happy to be watching Lg.2 football regularly, with the threat of disappearing into National league.

If there is to be a better chance of returning to the Championship then we need to build on what w have.

Look at the team that won the play-offs against Leeds, how many of that squad would automatically walk into our current squad? Copps, Green, O'Connor, Sullivan, Mills, Roberts, Stock, Wellens, Hayter I would suggest! That is the sort of quality that needs to be built up over the next couple of seasons before we can compete at the top end of this division.

£500k for Bailey?
Time to stop undervaluing our players, we've got long and sad history of selling our best players on the cheap.

£2million up front plus add ons, or its not worth answering the phone.

Selling them both would send us down, and we would be in league 2 for years.

Tbf I did call him a knob head yesterday because he'd done his usual trolling so no problem that he's had a nibble today.

Plus it looks like he read my post wrong in his haste to have a pop.

To other respectful posters, yes i think Bailey is worth £500k.
Wrong side of 25, never played higher than lg1, not likely to get any better than what he is now.

Molly I'd say £750k based on his goal threat.
