Leeds interest

sure it wasnt the deadly duo Bill benn and Stan willis leeds through and through lollol
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

How much would we be likely to accept for him? £500,000 I reckon, but can't see Leeds paying that much.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

They can't buy him until January and presumably by then their left back problem will be sorted.

If he has a mare in the game at GP they won't be interested. :idea:

unless the old chestnut of loan with a permanent deal in January, like Griffiths the full back posh have just signed from D & R.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

He's absolute pony and injury-prone. No club in their right mind would take on such a liability :)

Look me in the eye and tell me you are not Eric Hall or a parasite.

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

I heard Real Madrid have been scouting him, lets face it they have never replaced Roberto...
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

In all seriousness I think we have to accept that Ryan Dickson's name is going to appear in the gossip columns this January.

I'd be pleased if we can get through January without losing him - I'd be amazed if we can get through with him teid up to a long term deal.

I vaguely recall that he is out of contract in the summer - my question would be, if we are in a reasonable position, looking safe, should we sell him in January rather than take our chances at a tribunal in the summer?
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

I can smell £100k and a sell on clause written incorrectly on the back of an empty Mayfair Light packet. :drinker:

You could be right WEB.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

I presume by not sorting out an extension of his contract pre-season, we will get mugged for any price come January, or the fact that he will walk for free at the end of the season..? or will his age demand a fee..?

Either way, Ryan Blake is better :fishing:

There does seem a tendency to 'sell off' our better players on the GPG! It's a good thing that Ryan is associated with every rumour in L1/Championship about Left Backs, just like it's a good thing that AS is linked to upward moves, we really wouldn't want it otherwise... but I think we'd better stop voting for him on the MoM threads!
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

I have been banging on about his contract for donks, I sh*t myself when he got down to 2 years left! We best enjoy Ryan as sadly his days with us are numbered.

Aren't everybody's days with us numbered :confused:

Longer contract could of increased his transfer value but was he offered one?

Did he want an extension if it reduces his options / bargaining power? :fishing:

Who knows, I'm not blaming anyone for anything. He hasn't signed a new deal and that's all I need to know. I'm sure we offered but equally sure he can see beyond us.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

I guess clubs in our position find it almost impossible to keep hold of their prized assets. Enjoy why we can as I fear the worse come January.

A mate of mine (Plymouth supporter) reckoned at the time Argyle were stupid beyond belief to let him come to us. He also forecasted that one day we would sell him for a six figure fee. Anyone know if Plymouth have a sell on clause?

Which is why you should try and keep your good young players on decent length contracts. As it stands his value is diminishing the nearer we get to the end of the season, when he can leave and let a tribunal decide a fee.
If he goes in January it won't be for anywhere near the value he would have if he still had 2 years to run. The only hope would be that a few clubs want him and get the price up a bit.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Careless talk like that could cost BFC 1,000's of pounds.

Nobody has owned up to the Turner one so what makes you think someone will disclose anything about this one? Better off asking Plymouth :rolleyes:

Just hope we,ve learnt and get a fair deal if / when it happens. :)

:( would have to sell

I have never seen Blake play...how much of a prospect is he? I would feel a lot happier knowing we have a left back coming through to fill the gap who at least has the potential to replace Dicko.

I've been impressed by Blake but Sam Wood will have to step up as a left back unless we buy someone else

No of course this season. I was more meaning as a long term prospect. :)

I disagree. Sam Wood was a bit of a liability at full back when Dickson was out. Blake has been getting good reviews in the reserves, let's see what he can do first. Perhaps he won't be up to it, but we have had younger players than him playing regular first team football before.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

wasnt it a free we signed dickson on? if so there wont be a sell on! looks like bristol city and carlton are watching dickson also!
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

According to the FM2010 database he cost £20k but there is no sell-on.

exactly. The CB's are a huge problem, wood struggled at LB, give the boy a go it can't get any worse!
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

our ceo will sort his contract out after he has sorted what day we play gateheads ha ha
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

leeds want dickson

all jokes aside do they do night classes for contracts, as we allways seem to cock up during the daytime on our sell on ones

Come on Ryan you know it makes sense lad :sorted:
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

Come on Ryan you know it makes sense lad :sorted:

I know what you mean & it would be great if he agreed a new contract but for him personally would this make sense ? If he is tied to a contact and therefore worth more to BFC with regards to a transfer fee this could mean he is likely to get offered a lesser contract from any future employer. :shrug:
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

roflroflrofl

What? It's generally spot on about stuff like that. It's when it comes to predicting how good players are/how good they're going to be that it gets unreliable.

I was referring to us signing him for £20k with no sell-on, not Leeds in some mythical FM future, in case you were confused.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

He has been outstanding for us as an attacking LB and is certainly destined for bigger and better things. His partnership with Sam Wood down the left last season was very good too. If he were to go we could only wish him all the best. I bet we get absolutely shafted on the fee though, as per normal.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

Its good to see the club are trying to pre-empt any offer. Makes a change from being in the position of having to let players go who are out of contract. Hope Dickson signs and if he leaves hope we get decent compensation.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

Without knowing how good our offer is I wonder if RD or his agent feel it will be beneficial to resign with us. Certainly expect them to hold fire for the time being.
 

Ryan Dickson (Torquay Utd Under 18 Manager)

He has little to lose, he knows any decent offer and he will be sold anyway and this can be incorporated into his contract if he wants.

The certainty of a longer contract with us must be wlecome in the current climate and with his injury record.
