I like May, his workrate is great, his goal return better but sometimes his touch is terrible. If we are offered 1.5 Million that can be used elsewhere then we would be mad to say no.
There's weaknesses to his game like lack of height etc or assists but his touch being sometimes terrible I can't ever agree with I've seen him bring punts into the air down like berbatov and spray passes about better
than anyone else in the team..1 -

This is what I don’t understand. What past promises have these owners made that they haven’t delivered upon yet? This is only their second full window.Steven81 said:
Exactly the same and I know a couple others in the same boat who's have pretty much said the same thing,I won't hold out much hope going by past promises and failures and the fact we seem to sell our best players and think doing it on the cheap is the way forward.BigDiddy said:I’ve held back from getting a season ticket because i want to see if the club invest in a decent squad.
If they sell our only real goalscorer and thus weaken the squad, then i will not bother.
they haven’t done enough yet to be in credit, but they also haven’t done anything wrong as yet.
they also haven’t shown any indication that things will be done on the cheap
They hired Appleton
They owned us throughout our worst season in 98 years!6 -
Honestly, reading stuff like this makes me think some of our fans deserve the absolute shambles our club has been in for the last god knows how many years.cfgs said:I like May, his workrate is great, his goal return better but sometimes his touch is terrible.

Genuine question, how much do you think he is worth? He might be trying to get the move done for all we know. I just think if, and it is a big if, the fee is one and a half million that is a huge markup. We need a squad not a couple of decent players and a load of chaff, if he does go hopefully it is spent well. But all is good as Ronnie assures us he is staying and is happy in all the different houses he owns around Kent.JaShea99 said:

No idea where you can get any thought that his touch is terrible tbh mate18

At times it was, I did say at times, but the Raheem Sterling has those moments. It is all subjective and opinions, I often wonder when people say he could be an excellent 10. His best position is on the shoulder of the last man and running across the backline. I don't want to sell him, but if we do it will be because he would rather be elsewhere.AFKABartram said:No idea where you can get any thought that his touch is terrible tbh mate
He is a league one striker in his early 30s so he won't be great at everything.2 -
20 plus goals a season proven. That's his worthcfgs said:

But what I am getting at is if we do sell him, what is acceptable? I mean I get his goals could be irreplaceable but what is a realistic figure? I think most neutrals would think the hike in price over twelve months is a good result.RodneyCharltonTrotta said:

Without his goals last season, relegation may have happened.cfgs said:

I think he's invaluable to the team and selling him to rival club is madness unless you're able to get a fee which gets a younger 20 plus goal player or 3 or 4 promotion pushing players which wont happen.cfgs said:

Not seen much in the recruitment team so far to suggest they'll spend money well enough secure promotion and not miss Mays goals whilst he knocks them in for a rival club.

Nothing is acceptable. If we sell him we can kiss goodbye to promotion.cfgs said:

Well hopefully if he is sold it is all part of the master plan, but we haven't seen one of those since 2018/19.1

Elsewhere where? To get promoted we need to score goals. Even if we got £1.5M for him and signed another striker it would be a gamble as to whether they could reliably score 20-25 goals a season. Given our recruitment track record would you seriously consider rolling those dice.cfgs said:I like May, his workrate is great, his goal return better but sometimes his touch is terrible.

Given how few goals are in this squad from elsewhere selling May doesn’t just jeopardise promotion, it jeopardises us staying up.2 -

Surprised Huddersfield gave him permission to play a game of cricket!0

His best position being a 10 doesn't make sense with his assist ratio. His shooting numbers also highlight he wouldn't be good as a 10 (1st in league for number of shots, 98th for shot accuracy) long term.cfgs said:

1 million would be a good deal BUT you do not sell your best players.cfgs said:

If this mob have money and ambition then keep May and bring in better players than from the 2nd division in Scotland.10 -
All the years we've been looking for a 20+ goal a season striker. Alfie is gold dust. Selling him to a promotion rival if it happens will raise my blood pressure to a dangerous level.8

And why would he tell people in earshot . It’s another Twitter bullshitter.mendonca said:Surprised Huddersfield gave him permission to play a game of cricket!0 -
Why mug yourself off and put that out there then if he does not believe what he heard?Bedsaddick said:

The current owners collectively have big money . That’s a fact . How much they are prepared to spend remains to be seen.Overall I’ve been happy with what they have done so far and steadied the ship after all the uncertainty and personally think if May does leave ( and it’s still a big if ) it will be NJ or AM decision not anything orchestrated by this board.1

If Huddersfield have money to burn, why didn’t they burn it last year in an attempt to stay in the championship3

Whether it is sensible to sell May for £1M+ depends on if anyone/who is bought as a replacement(s).1

Or how little they're prepared to lose.MintoHumbugs said:The current owners collectively have big money . That’s a fact .

Didn’t realise that. Will that only cover their losses though?fenaddick said:
