Tord31 Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 He has very little chance of forcing his way in to the squad for the euros so if he does we'll be very pleased with our season Link to comment

Whilst I don't think he will ever be of interest to EPL teams, mid table Championship clubs would certainly be. On a newish contract, his value in the transfer market is enhanced and being involved internationally enhances it further. At the same time we are losing money because of Covid so might not want to have to pay him more per week(potentially) and a signing on fee for giving him a new contract now? Lots of other players to be replaced or renewed this summer. Link to comment

Durrant Dived Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Scott Wright offered new deal. Looking to extend Edmundson & Leigh deals until the end of the season according to P&J. Link to comment
Guest milne_afc Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Scott Wright has kb’d the offer but Dons should qualify for some kind of compo if another club signs him in the summer. No big loss imho Link to comment

No big loss imho Has he actually turned it down? He’s been a stand out this season. Regardless of previous form he would be a big loss going forward. Only hedges would be a bigger loss. Wouldn’t surprise me if he waits to see what is on offer in January. But it would only take another bad injury or drop in form and all of a sudden he finds himself at St mirren. It’s the risk you take I guess. Link to comment
Durrant Dived Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Genuinely don't see Wright playing for anyone better than us. 2.5k cap for league 1 players and he is no where near consistent enough for a championship team to pay him any more. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 I'd be surprised if he didnt stay on. If we could get £500k for him that would be interesting option - I'm not sure he's done enough yet for someone to fancy paying that for him Link to comment

Probably many would have said same about Hedges prior to this season though but he was given more opportunity to change views of him that Wright has, probably because McInnes signed him Link to comment

I'm certain that England will view him as physically too slight. And nowhere near consistent enough as you say. In Scotland, (arse cheeks excepted obv) only United, Hearts and Hibs could afford to pay him more than us if they really wanted to on a one off basis, but they'd only do that for an absolutely outstanding talent and I don't think Wright fits that profile. Good luck to him if he thinks he can get better elsewhere but I suspect he may well regret it 2 years down the line when he's plying his trade somewhere like St J or Motherwell for a grand a week less than we offered.

Completely agree. Amazed he has turned down the offer unless he is just trying to get a few more quid from us and does want to remain here. Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Wright (or his agent) have ideas well above their station if they think a couple good performances at the start of this season means there will be any big money offers for him. He’s far too scrawny to make it down south, and he certainly won’t get a game for either of the Glasgow minks. Link to comment
WesthillWanderersFC Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 A couple of posters post shite about Wright turning down a contract & folk swallow it. Jesus... look who the source of it is & then have a think that maybe they talk perennial shite & are at it. 2 Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 So Wright out for at least 4 weeks (operation on Saturday) so gives him plenty time to mull over his new contract or even talk to other clubs Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Wonder if Considine has any plans on doing his coaching badges? Not to unrealistic for him to be a future Aberdeen coach of sorts or even manager. Considine/Robson combo maybe, or Sheerin? Link to comment

Maybe, but will be his final contract with us....he will leave at the same time as McInnes. He'll be 35 when it runs out. Depends if he decides to call it a day at that point or keep playing another couple of years. If he's doing his badges, he might fancy a couple of years as player-coach somewhere like Montrose or Forfar Link to comment

It's not clear he's done enough in the last 7-8 years to merit a team playing £300k for him at this point. Link to comment
