jenga 2,998 Posted November 29, 2015 I am amazed he has gone on a full transfer, I hope they paid a lot. ya know what its like when you win the lottery ? you get loads of begging letters and calls . so you feel sorry for them and give them your money because they have something you think you want . scunny wanted money, glasgow had it , scunny took it , glasgow discard item 12 months later , cos they can .disposable income .

Albert 304 Posted November 29, 2015 What is a reasonable transfer fee for a rider of Nike Lunna's calibre these days?... Lunna is young, bags of potential, national under 21 champ... An amount equivalent to whatever it would cost a club in loan fees for 4 or 5 years? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gazc 7,101 Posted November 29, 2015 (edited) A Lot, a large number or amount; a great deal. Thanks for clearing that up i am much more clued up now. However I somehow don't think we will have paid your definition off a lot for a 4.50 rider granted with potential but would imagine that he would not have commanded a Lot for the fee.

An amount equivalent to whatever it would cost a club in loan fees for 4 or 5 years? He is only worth what someone want's to pay basically and if it is acceptable to the selling club.

thebaron 434 Posted November 29, 2015 In Speedway circles transfer fees have never really amounted to much. Its not like football; remember we (Bradford) paid a record fee for Joe Screen back in 1994 from Belle Vue. Think it was about £30k and may still be the record ?. So Nike ? the cost of replacing part of the EWR air fence ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There ain't much money in speedway, we all know that.. I guess even loan fee's are minimal?.. My question is, what would the total cost of 4/5 years loan fee's amount to?..£3-4000 ish? Is that a reasonable amount for a rider of his calibre? That would be about the right amount of cash needed to enable Scunny to replace the air panels Nike bust last year..lol Out of interest, anyone on here know how much loan fee's are these days?

Islander15 1,065 Posted November 29, 2015 They built the team around him last year and he struggled at first, but then he ended with some good scores, has a real average now and is very entertaining to watch. Surely that ticks all Rob's boxes and now is when Scunny want him, rather than a gamble last winter? I'm tempted to agree that maybe Glasgow offered a lot of money, but he's not really been in the picture all winter as Rob knew his team very early. So I'm a bit confused by this one.

thebaron 434 Posted November 29, 2015 (edited) Rob just verified on Twitter Nike to Glasgee is a full transfer and a good one for both clubs.

This one rides on wheels of steele ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPQyd_kELVw Edited November 29, 2015 by the outsider 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bullet 72 Posted November 30, 2015 haha good old twitter clues!!! only one getting the camera out will be me!!!! If they follow how they usually do they are being done on purpose to suit the fact that people are saying it is josh bailey. Josh does not fit the original statement that rob said that the rider goes well/fast around the EWR His record is 2pts from 5 heats vs stags in KOC in 2014 and 8pts from 4 hts later that year in the league Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
