Title: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: pewshamrobin on Friday, January 15, 2010, 00:22:42 Just spotted this on yesterday's Timesonline my be chuff about Billy rejecting a new contract?
"Dead certs Vincent Péricard had a medical at Swindon Town yesterday with a view to signing a long-term contract at the League One club. The former France Under-21 striker, who recently played for Carlisle United, arrives after Billy Paynter, the leading scorer, rejected a new contract at Swindon. Bristol Rovers, Charlton Athletic and Huddersfield Town have inquired about the 25-year-old, who will be a free agent in the summer." Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Friday, January 15, 2010, 00:24:09 Speculation probably. I have been wondering if Pericard was brought in as a long term replacement for Billy though.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Friday, January 15, 2010, 08:02:51 Maybe true but nothing has been said about him even being offered a new contract let alone turning it down already.
I hope its rubbish. I really do... Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: nochee on Friday, January 15, 2010, 08:04:40 If he was to leave, who do you think would take him on?
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Batch on Friday, January 15, 2010, 08:04:54 Quote Bristol Rovers, Charlton Athletic and Huddersfield Town have inquired about the 25-year-old Uh-oh - sounds true then! I'd be pissed off he he moved to Rovers, but Charlton is a step up and Huddersfield is at the other end of the country so I could understand those moves. It is possible that Wilson knew about this for a while hence first Revell now Perricard. It's also possible to be complete bollocks. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: pauld on Friday, January 15, 2010, 08:05:23 What Dave said.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: BANGKOK RED on Friday, January 15, 2010, 08:05:53 Even if he has rejected a contract, it doesn't have to mean that he wants to leave. Could be that he just wants to negotiate a better one.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Power to people on Friday, January 15, 2010, 08:42:51 I'm sure the adver will now nick the story and print it as they can't find anything for themselves these days
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: STFC_Gazza on Friday, January 15, 2010, 09:12:04 Uh-oh - sounds true then! I'd be pissed off he he moved to Rovers, but Charlton is a step up and Huddersfield is at the other end of the country so I could understand those moves. It is possible that Wilson knew about this for a while hence first Revell now Perricard. It's also possible to be complete bollocks. It's probably bollocks, Doubt he would go to Rovers but then again they do have a few bob from the Rickie Lambert sale, but I would ahve thought that would have gone to pay for losses due to their new stadium not being built. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Sippo on Friday, January 15, 2010, 09:14:12 With a new striker on the books, there was always going to be rumours flying around. Huddersfield would be closer to 'home' for him mind.
Don't think he'll go anywhere and vince will be on the bench. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Arriba on Friday, January 15, 2010, 10:53:19 i thought wilson was wating before sorting contracts out?
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: juddie on Friday, January 15, 2010, 11:00:19 just because he hasn't signed a new contract doesn't mean he's leaving... he might be in throws of trying to negotiate another year or anything. Bit too early to be working out where he's going!
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Chubbs on Friday, January 15, 2010, 11:02:13 if a good enough offer comes in then i wont be too bothered
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: juddie on Friday, January 15, 2010, 11:12:42 I would. He's been ace this season.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: jonny72 on Friday, January 15, 2010, 11:20:40 He had a few good games at the beginning of the season but quite a few bad games as well. He's been a totally different player since Austin came along, the same as he was playing alongside Cox last season. Without the right player alongside him he has been pretty average in my book so I won't lose too much sleep if he goes.
If he has turned down a new contract its a bit of a dangerous game to play. If he gets injured, suspended or is off form, Pericard will replace him and if he does well Paynter might find it hard getting a game. If that happens, come the end of the season he might find himself without a club. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, January 15, 2010, 11:24:21 If it was true I would be gutted. Can't say I would blame him though
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Friday, January 15, 2010, 12:42:56 Same thing I said about JPM.
We should be doing all we can and then some to get our better players signed up. Paynter has been brilliant this season and was awesome last season and still people wouldn't be fussed if he left!! Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Batch on Saturday, January 16, 2010, 07:32:27 Paynter says the "contract rift" is bollocks
http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/news/headlines/4854545.Paynter_denies_contract_rift_rumours/ Quote BILLY Paynter has rubbished speculation that he has turned down a new County Ground contract and insists we wants to stay at the club. A national newspaper report has suggested Paynter - whose contract expires in the summer - could leave in the current transfer window, with Charlton and Huddersfield monitoring the situation. The arrival of another target man in the shape of Vincent Pericard has added fuel to the fire that Danny Wilson is preparing for life without his top scorer but the 25-year-old told the Advertiser he wants to stay in Wiltshire and is waiting to receive a formal offer of a new deal from Town chairman Andrew Fitton. Paynter said: “I’ve spoken to the chairman and he’s made it clear he wants me to stay. But he’s away at the moment so nothing has happened with regards a new contract. “I’m more than happy to stay. I’m really enjoying it here at the moment. “I haven’t turned down a contract and I really don’t see it being an issue.” Paynter has flourished this season, particularly since the arrival of strike partner Charlie Austin from Poole Town. And a flurry of goals from both men has seen their stock rise in League One. As a result Paynter is likely to hold out for improved terms on his current deal following a switch from Southend in the summer of 2007. He added: “All I’ll say is I feel I’ve improved as a player during the two years I’ve been here as a player and hopefully the chairman has seen that I’ve improved.” Meanwhile fellow hotshot Austin should take his place alongside Paynter against Gillingham this afternoon after missing training this week through illness. “Charlie’s been out for a bit this week so we’ll have to assess him before the game, but we’re hopeful he’ll be ok,” said Swindon boss Danny Wilson. Austin has been suffering from a bout of tonsillitis but took part in Town’s training session yesterday with no adverse reaction. “I’ve had tonsillitis for the last couple of days but I went to see the doctor and luckily it’s cleared away,” said the 20-year-old. “I trained with the guys and I feel good to go.” I reckon Austin will start on the bench if he's been struggling with illness. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Saturday, January 16, 2010, 08:01:23 I must admit I do like what Paynter has said. It seems genuine.
However, if he goes back on what he said... Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: herthab on Saturday, January 16, 2010, 08:05:19 I must admit I do like what Paynter has said.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: pauld on Saturday, January 16, 2010, 09:29:17 Since when have the nationals EVER got a story right about us? They just print any old guff they get off stringers
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: JB_Swindon on Saturday, January 16, 2010, 13:06:18 I would be upset to see paynter leave as it may have an adverse affect on austin's peformances too. but i dont think wilson would be foolish enough to let him leave considering how much he has brought to the team this season.

He added: “All I’ll say is I feel I’ve improved as a player during the two years I’ve been here as a player and hopefully the chairman has seen that I’ve improved.” Looks like he's gonna want a bigger slice of the pie, so to speak Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: STFC_Gazza on Monday, January 18, 2010, 08:42:20 Someone said on the radio that Fitton will offer to make Paynter the highest paid player on the team.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: jayohaitchenn on Monday, January 18, 2010, 08:45:22 No chance.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: herthab on Monday, January 18, 2010, 08:47:22 Someone said on the radio that Fitton will offer to make Paynter the highest paid player on the team.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: spacey on Monday, January 18, 2010, 08:51:45 Fitton said in an interview on the wireless that the offer that they had made Paynter would make him the highest paid player at the club.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Power to people on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 09:16:25 Highest paid player at the club?Im sure John Douglas would have something to say about that. That is what Fitton said, sounds like he was hinting that Paynter's agent was holding up the new contract Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Phil_S on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 09:22:38 I think he'll stay. (Mind you I said that about Cox too) (& Sam Parkin) . Trouble is I can't imagine why any one would want to play for anyone else if they are with STFC. Come to think of it thats the big plus with Charlie Austin. He supports the town.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 09:59:05 He doesn't.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Phil_S on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 10:01:06 Does
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Peter Venkman on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 10:04:06 Someone on the radio said he does.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 10:05:37 He really doesn't.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: STFC_Gazza on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 10:07:57 Austin used to watch Swindon but supports Liverpool.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Phil_S on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 10:08:28 If he used to watch Swindon isn't that support !?
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Spy on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 10:11:22 Austin is Swindon.
Not saying he doesn't support Liverpool that might be true. But he is into Swindon. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 10:11:39 I watched man u and man city on the tv last night.
I support them both Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Sippo on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 10:18:37 His wife is overdue on their baby, so I'd be very doubtful he'd move/not sign a contract. Unless he is actually going to wovers.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: RobertT on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 11:21:05 Footballers, all of them, do not and never will support a football team. Not in the way we understand the concept. They were all too good too young and played football, got signed up by clubs at an age where the supporting bit really gets beaten into you, and then occasionally claim they watched a team as a youngster. That is mainly because clubs make their youth team turn up on matchdays if they are not playing. If they were supporters of a club, they'd never play for anyone else in a professional manner.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 11:49:43 Billy Paynter (and J-P McGovern for that matter) has only played in mediocre and poor Swindon sides since they arrived in '07.
Now Payner and McGovern are regulars who are playing well in a vastly improved team. Unless The Championship calls I don't see them leaving... Oh and if they get offered a 3 year contract elsewhere but they wouldn't learn that until the Summer. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Saxondale on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 12:02:42 They've not always been good for us have they, we've done a fair amount of work (obviously when I say we, I haven't taken too many training sessions myself, but you know what I mean...) to help them develop to this standard. For that reason I don't think they'll go.
They are on good form, playing in a team that is performing better than anyone has the right to expect it to and moving would risk an awful lot for them. It doesn't seem the right time in their careers for them to be buggering off on the strength of two thirds of a decent season. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: jonny72 on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 13:14:16 I don't think you can blame any player for moving to another club for more money. Nowadays its very easy to find yourself without a club and no income, so if you've got the option of earning an extra £50k a year or a longer contract elsewhere it must be very hard to turn it down. Its not like any of our players are going to be set up for life with the wages paid at this level.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Stef Troll on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 13:24:52 Wouldnt be too sad to see him go as hes easily replaceable. A fair few of his goals this season have come from the penalty spot. I think he maybe slightly better then someone like Revell, but hes still a poor mans Tommy Mooney.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Power to people on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 13:36:32 They've not always been good for us have they, we've done a fair amount of work (obviously when I say we, I haven't taken too many training sessions myself, but you know what I mean...) to help them develop to this standard. For that reason I don't think they'll go. They are on good form, playing in a team that is performing better than anyone has the right to expect it to and moving would risk an awful lot for them. It doesn't seem the right time in their careers for them to be buggering off on the strength of two thirds of a decent season. JP was highly rated when he played for Franchise, he then signed for us showed in glimpses what he could do really until this season when he is clearly having his best season for us. more than likely that is down to Wilson and his tactics allowing JP to come in off the wing and move into the middle when play dictates, he seems to relish that position, yes footballers move for more money but some of them actually like to try and acheive something in their career and it would be an achievment for any player at Swindon if they helped us to promotion, and their reputation would rise further with that on the CV also, I do beleive that JP is one of those players. so unless we accept a large offer for him I think he will stay. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Arriba on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 14:25:43 it's blatantly obvious what is going on with paynter.he wants a better contract and if he can get that here he'll stay.if he doesn't get what he wants and can elsewhere he'll go.
nearly all modern players are like this and dont "love" the clubs they play for. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 14:35:42 Paynter is replaceable but I'd prefer it if such an exit happened in the Summer as opposed to this window.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: pauld on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 14:38:37 I don't think you can blame any player for moving to another club for more money. Yeah I can. Cunts.But I think some people are underrating Billy P here - he's getting the goals (and so what if they're penalties - Coxy scored his share of penalties and I don't remember anyone complaining about that), his effort this season has been superb and he's formed very effective partnerships with first Cox and now Austin. It's very easy to say "Oh, so and so's just a journeyman, we could replace him easily". You might be able to replace the player, but replacing the partnership can be a lot more difficult - Billy brings a lot more to the side than just his goals Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 14:41:47 plus, rather that just saying we could replace him...
....who the hell could we replace him with anyway? Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 14:44:44 Centre Forwards come and go. Paynter is out of the shadow of Simon Cox and is thriving with an up and coming league forward.
I wouldn't be happy if he exits the club this month but after that we can easily replace him adequately. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: jonny72 on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 14:48:30 You might be able to replace the player, but replacing the partnership can be a lot more difficult - Billy brings a lot more to the side than just his goals There is no doubt that Paynter has formed an excellent relationship with Austin the same as he did with Cox. But you need to look at it from the other side as well, in that Paynter has played a lot better with the right partner than he did without. He was 3rd choice striker at first until Corr got injured and he clicked with Cox. I didn't think his performances at the beginning of this season were that great (though they weren't bad either), which changed when Austin came along. But he still ain't the quality of player that we should be breaking the bank for. If he does go I can't see it happening this month, he'll want to see out the season and the possible promotion / play offs. Maybe Wilson wouldn't want him if we're in the Championship next season. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: pauld on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 14:50:55 Yeah, but you think everyone's "shit"
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 14:58:14 ...and still no names of replacements.
...and when the fucking hell was Paynter 3rd choice behind Barry fucking Corr? Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: tans on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 15:02:37 Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 15:18:15 Naming potential replacements is pointless because we don't know the market like those in the business do.
Nobody suggested in the summer that everything would be okay because a 30+ goalscorer could be replaced by a 20 year old from Poole Town forging another decent partnership with Paynter. If we did the likes of Bart would be telling us that we were preparing for relegation. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: jonny72 on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 15:40:20 Yeah, but you think everyone's "shit" Indeed. Bizarrely, I think the only player I haven't referred to as "shit" at least once is LJF. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: jayohaitchenn on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 15:44:28 YOU CUNT. DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT HE'S GOING THROUGH?
CUNT. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: stfctownenda on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 16:37:53 Indeed. Bizarrely, I think the only player I haven't referred to as "shit" at least once is LJF. Which is indeed why your comments are generally clueless at best. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Spencer_White on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 18:51:33 ...and when the fucking hell was Paynter 3rd choice behind Barry fucking Corr?

Its not like any of our players are going to be set up for life with the wages paid at this level. Some of us dont want to think football is all about money. This should all be sorted out behind closed doors. Fans shouldnt even hear about it, I certainly dont want to know. Just sort it out one way or the other. This must be the agent leaking this sort of information to create pressure on our board, which is totally reprehensible. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 19:03:26 When Barry Corr was fit.

he shows he can work with players who are looking to play football and not mess around like beckford with the shitty attitude and billy p is only 25 so it shows that the club should try there hardest to keep him here. jp has had a great season and i think hes enjoying it here i think he will stay on a sign another contract for atleast another year.

Perfectly put. Apart from the fact that the season we lost Allison in 1997 and fell off the pace. Ndah came in in 97 and left in 99, our relegation season. In that time, we entered administration, sold half of our squad, and played our 40 year old manager because we had noone else left. We just about stayed afloat. So yes, if Paynter left, it would be exactly the same. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: pride_of_wilts on Monday, January 25, 2010, 07:53:21 Rovers bid £100k for Paynter.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Batch on Monday, January 25, 2010, 08:21:53 I hope he stays too. His goals and partnership with Austin have been instrumental in our push into the playoffs.
If he goes to Rovers I think we'd all know it was about money/length of contract and not footballing reasons. If he went he'd be consigned to the greedy bastard bin along with Smith, Haywood et al. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: nochee on Monday, January 25, 2010, 08:25:40 You think that Rovers will pay him more than we will? I dont think they could offer him more than what we would, not something that was so tempting to leave anyway. The link to the newspaper article said that they couldnt break the bank in wages (something along those lines anyway)
Not a wise move, should he go. Especially with the chances that he has with us at the moment. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Power to people on Monday, January 25, 2010, 08:30:06 I'd be surprised if the offer was accepted and I'd be surprised if he wanted to go to Rovers - not exactly a step up is it ?

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Monday, January 25, 2010, 09:06:04 Increased attendances, play off games, next season seasons ticket sales and possibly Championship football is worth a lot more to us the 100k.
Selling would show a lack of ambition in my opinion. Leeds have the right idea. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: nochee on Monday, January 25, 2010, 09:09:32 A couple of posters on the gasheads forum think that 100,000 is a bargain.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Barry Scott on Monday, January 25, 2010, 09:22:51 It is a bargain. We sold Fallon in a similar vein of form, with only 6 months remaining on his contract, for £300k and in my opinion Paynter is a better, or at least more complete, player.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Batch on Monday, January 25, 2010, 09:51:51 Leeds have the right idea. They told Beckford he could leave if the valuation was met and a replacement was found. Player for player I'd take Fallon over Paynter. However getting rid of Paynter could severely fuck up our season. But **IF** he doesn't want to stay then 100K in the hand is worth 2 in the bush. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Peter Venkman on Monday, January 25, 2010, 10:03:11 I don't think Paynter is all that to be honest, hes missed much more than he has scored, the misses early season in 3 consecutive games Col U, Walsall and Wycombe, the terrible terrible miss against Walsall, one of the worst I have ever seen, then he did it again almost carbon copy against Wycombe IIRC the penalty miss, the fact that about half of his goals have been penalties.
If we replace him with a decent signing then I wont be shedding any tears and if it comes down to him being greedy then he can be allowed to go before he leaves on a free. Now if it was Austin leaving then I would be a lot more upset at the prospect. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Batch on Monday, January 25, 2010, 10:12:52 If we replace him with a decent signing then I wont be shedding any tears and if it comes down to him being greedy then he can be allowed to go before he leaves on a free. Though Dave will be spitting blood at your post I agree to a point. But you can't argue Paynter is scoring and so is Austin, they have good synergy. Sometimes the the whole IS greater than the sum of the parts. Silly as it sounds there is no guarantee playing a better player will form a better partnership. Although you could argue that Paynter/Austin can't keep going at the rate they are too! Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: STFC_Gazza on Monday, January 25, 2010, 10:17:52 I would have more faith in Austin/Paynter than Austin/Pericard. Ok I haven't seen too much of Pericard so maybe its not fair to judge, but if it's not broken don't fix it as they saying goes.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Peter Venkman on Monday, January 25, 2010, 10:18:14 I agree Batch but the point is that Paynter really isnt all that, no I wouldnt sell him by choice as hes on form and as you say the sum of all the parts etc but hes not that great hes not bad but hes not a massive loss....if he doesnt want to be here (which seems to be the way it is pointing) then he can go.
yes he has to look after himself financially but if we are offering close to what anyone else is offering and he still leaves then his heart isnt in it with us so he can leave. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: STFC_Gazza on Monday, January 25, 2010, 10:20:03 I dont think Paynter is going anywhere. No doubt he will use Rovers interest to get himself a better contract, thats human nature but I dont think he will go anywhere. His career has been start stop since being here. Rovers is very much a sideways step and with his young family you would assume he would want to settle in one area?
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Batch on Monday, January 25, 2010, 10:20:32 I think we agree then JJ
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Monday, January 25, 2010, 10:38:16 Paynter isn't all that - behave.
If we are serious about promotion we shouldn't be even thinking about selling our top scorer. Leeds kept hold of their top scorer and turned down bids because they know promotion is worth much more to them than a bit of cash. We should be doing the same. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have upfront with Austin. Same way I wouldn't have had anyone else up top with Cox last season. Who is out there who we could sign in this window who do as good a job for the team as Paynter? Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: westcountry on Monday, January 25, 2010, 10:39:29 Who is out there who we could sign in this window who do as good a job for the team as Paynter?

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: RobertT on Monday, January 25, 2010, 12:46:43 I agree with JJ's points about him being on form but irreplaceable if he's not 100% committed to us. However, 100k is not enough money in my mind for us to consider vs keeping him for the next 5 months and letting him go on a free after he's scored a few more hopefully crucial goals.
I think Fallon's departure was more understandable because 300k+ given our financial plight at the time was hard to turn down. 100k should not be turning any heads, even if Paynter would decide to go on a free in the summer. I still don't think he wants to go anyway. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DMR on Monday, January 25, 2010, 12:50:22 I dont think Paynter is going anywhere.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: jonny72 on Monday, January 25, 2010, 13:00:31 There is no way Fitton would let Paynter go for £100k unless Wilson gets a replacement in that he is happy with and says he doesn't need Paynter. Otherwise I reckon it would have to be at least £500k for him to go, he is worth that to us if it means the play offs or promotion.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Arriba on Monday, January 25, 2010, 13:09:44 paynter holds the aces here.we dont know what he earns here,what the new contract offer is,or what rovers are offering him.
if he can get a longer deal, on more money, then he may well want to go. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: bobby on Monday, January 25, 2010, 13:11:21 I think if any sort of money is offered for Paynter the club should seriously consider it. We are looking to gain promotion and i dont think Paynter is good enough for the Championship, better players than him have struggled to score goals in that division. Look at Gary Hooper and Aaron Mclean 30+ goals scored in League 1 and now both scored 7 in the Championship. I am not saying Paynter is a bad player at all but i dont think making him the highest payed player at the club is worth it especially if clubs are willing to pay money for him.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: lambourn red on Monday, January 25, 2010, 13:11:27 We should politely tell them to Fuck Off even if it means getting nothing for Billy at the end of the season, at the moment £100k is not enough to accept to risk de-railing our first pop at the play offs for a few years. The whole thing will be being driven by his agent to drive up his contract value, although you have to look at it from BP perspective if we offer a one year deal and Rovers offer a 3 year one irrespective of whether we offer more money he is likely to take the Rovers one with more job security.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Sippo on Monday, January 25, 2010, 13:20:15 There is no way Fitton would let Paynter go for £100k unless Wilson gets a replacement in that he is happy with and says he doesn't need Paynter.

Draw your own conclusions. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: LucienSanchez on Monday, January 25, 2010, 13:25:28 He'd be stupid to go to Rovers, unless we are only offering him 1 year. Which we shouldn't. He's our top scorer, and puts in a good shift week in, week out, and as such should be shown a bit of respect with regard to the offer he receives from Fitton.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: BANGKOK RED on Monday, January 25, 2010, 13:47:09 I also think that Fitton should tell rovers to fuck off, regardless of what happens. In fact, I believe that Fitton should tell Rovers to fuck of on a weekly/monthly basis, just for shits and giggles.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Power to people on Monday, January 25, 2010, 15:49:28 If Wilson did not think that Paynter was good enough for us in the chumpsship then I don't think he would be offered a new contract let alone Wilson & Fitton be willing to make him the highest earner.
I think we can safely say that Billy will still be here at 1701 on 1 Feb when the window closes Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: nevillew on Monday, January 25, 2010, 16:00:05 I think people are forgetting that Paynter if he moves is likely to get a fairly decent signing on fee.Like it or not i am sure that will have something to do with it He might get a signing on fee here if he agrees to his new contract.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Stef Troll on Monday, January 25, 2010, 18:02:16 Take the money and run is my opinion.
Hes having a good season atm, but i fear he is a one season wonder (ie like Ricketts of Bolton before he played for England). His goal scoring record to date is one goal every 4 and a half matches. Not prolific by any means Dont think he would be good enough for the championship anyway, and Danny could probably bring someone in for £100,000 who would do a better job anyway Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Rich Pullen on Monday, January 25, 2010, 18:03:19 I wouldn't jeopardise the shape of a side having a good season for £100,000.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Monday, January 25, 2010, 18:10:53 Would be a real shame if he goes. After the loyalty we have shown him with a 3-year deal and getting hi career back on track here as well as offering him a very lucrative new deal I think it would smack of greed if he went. I guess that's football these days though. Out of contract or not though 100k is a joke. Barnard has 17 goals this season (3 more than Paynter) and went for 200k. If I was Fitton and Wilson it would be double your money or no move.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: dphunt88 on Monday, January 25, 2010, 18:15:02 Being a Paynter fan, I feel i should step in here!
Paynter in all competitions 96 (+20) with 36 goals. So... that's a goal every 2.66 starts or a goal every 3.22 appearances. Which compares quite well with Rory Fallon, one of our better recent ex target men... 51 (+38) with 25 goals.

At the time everyone was surprised, but the explanation from the management was that he was tired and needed a rest. Not sure that this is 100% true and it seems to me to imply that Wilson isn't that enamoured with Paynter. Also, someone like Pericard hasn't come here to sit on the bench.
Would like to see us with striking options of Austin, Pericard (because we've signed him and must think he's good) plus two other strikers. Thinking a bit more deeply, if this Crawley chap is a big lump then maybe he is to be signed to be a Pericard back up. Also, if the Kuffour rumour is true too, then maybe thats supposed to be an Austin back up? One things for sure, if we are serious about promotion and starting with Austin and Pericard we need replacements for both to come off the bench. Interesting times to see who this might be! Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: DV on Monday, January 25, 2010, 18:48:12 Can is also be noted in 4 games Paynter didnt start we won 1, drew 1 and lost 2.
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Monday, January 25, 2010, 18:55:35 I don't know what the fuck people are worried about. FWIW, I do not believe that Paynter or JPM will be going anywhere at this point in time.
It's clear that the Board want to get promoted this season if at all possible and they're not going to do anything to jeopardise that. The only players leaving will be deadwood (i.e Aljofree, Peacock etc) and if Paynter or JPM were to go (I don't believe for a minute they will) it would be to facilitate two or three new players coming in or something of that nature i.e it will be for the overall benefit of the club. I think that Wilson and the Board have done enough to warrant a bit of trust from us. The days of selling our top striker in the middle of a promotion/relegation battle (Shearer/Fjortoft) for buttons are long gone (as long as the current regime are in power - and long may they be). As has been suggested already, this is a case of the internet perpetuating rumours. Lazy journo's look on the forums, it gets printed and people say there is no smoke without fire and it gets posted back on the forums. Well there is smoke without fire. Remember Ricky Lambert? We had all convinced ourselves he was going to join because it was on all t'internet forums but it was just bollocks perpetuating more bollocks. Don't worry people. Be happy. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Spencer_White on Monday, January 25, 2010, 19:00:51 I think he'll sign on for another couple of years.
Rovers are having a good season. But I wouldnt bet against them imploding at some point. Weve got the stability, hes got a home here and a good relationship with the fans (something he certainly never got at Southend or Hull). I know they are not offering contracts yet. But I think Paynter would want to stay, so I hope we get it done.

Billy was offered a contract long enough ago that he would have signed it by now if he really wanted to stay. And if Billy really is being influenced that much by his agent then as much as I like him, he is an extreme fuckwit and Kudos to Fitton for saying fuck you to his agent.

This is what I posted originally Quote Paynter will not be joining you as most have already said on this forum, He has already said he wants to stay at Swindon and we are already going to offer him a contract to make him the highest paid player at the club. He has formed a great partnership with Charlie Austin and just had a baby with his mrs, why would uproot his young family now? If Paynter goes it only leaves us with Pericard and Austin so it's not like we have a massive amount of strikers and need to ship one out? Ben Hutchinson who is rubbish will be sent back to Celtic next week so… We are in a playoff position and Paynter is a firm fans favourite here. Swindon are financially stable now and we don't have to sell. We have a new stadium in the pipeline (although so did you, will ours or yours ever get built? Doubtful) and selling a key player like Paynter would only see us slide down the table. A move to Rovers would be a backwards step for Paynter who has had mixed fortunes elsewhere. Unfortunately for Rovers Fans, BRFC will always live in the shadow of Bristol Sh*tty and a signing like Paynter would get people to take notice but Unfortunately due to your dilapidated Stadium, Bristol Rovers are not exactly a big proposition for players. If Paynter was to go anywhere it would be Huddersfield closer to home where he has also been linked to, They would also be offering more dosh too.

It seems your bullshit is catching on, a Rovers fan on 606 claiming "I hear through a Swindon supporting friend of mine that we have now upped our bid for Paynter to £130k and he wants to hold talks with us. How true that is i'm not sure but that's coming from the Swindon end of things" :D Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: STFC_Gazza on Monday, January 25, 2010, 22:09:32 It seems your bullshit is catching on, a Rovers fan on 606 claiming "I hear through a Swindon supporting friend of mine that we have now upped our bid for Paynter to £130k and he wants to hold talks with us.

A container holding 25,000 Bristol Rovers shirts was returned to England by the people of Haiti with a note: "We have no homes, no food, nothing, but we still have our dignity". I've got my coat..... Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Batch on Tuesday, January 26, 2010, 08:09:51 I see the Paynter to Rovers rumour has been rubbished by Fitton (Adver).
What are we going to talk about today!? Oh yeah, Leeds game. Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: Power to people on Tuesday, January 26, 2010, 15:17:09 See that Sky are now reporting Rovers making a move for Billy

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: davo123 on Wednesday, January 27, 2010, 08:57:15 The situation with Billy is that he wants to stay. Mr Fitton has said that his new contract will make him the highest piad player at the club, this simply isn't true. Both parties are quite far apart on their valuation.(and it isnt billy being greedy) It's not just him being messed about, JP and Amankwaah are in the same situation. Also Charlie Austin has a clause in his contract that would mean if he played well in the first few months he would be entitled to a payrise, the board are now trying to get out of that. I understand they are businessmen but if they'll not careful Billy, jp and amankwaah could all walk away in the summer
Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: BANGKOK RED on Wednesday, January 27, 2010, 09:01:24 So, you are saying then that Fitton is lying?

Charlie to Fitton "boss I have been playing well" AF replies "sorry Charlie you have been decent but not Brill as it says in your contract so therefore Fuck Off and that goes for you Billy and Wanky now get out I am counting my takings from last night before me and the other lads decide what to spend it on" Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: china red on Wednesday, January 27, 2010, 09:16:26 The situation with Billy is that he wants to stay.

Title: Re: Paynter rejects new contract Post by: pauld on Wednesday, January 27, 2010, 10:04:25 And on more considered reflection - the thing is, Mr Agent, much though I want Billy to stay and hope he's being properly rewarded for his contribution, as a fanbase we understand the perils that lie in not having a properly run club with a proper wage structure and business plan. We've damn near lost our club more than once to boards that didn't understand that, and finally we've been lifted out of the shite by a board that is capable of running a club properly. And part of that is proper wage structures. So, I'm afraid, if it comes to who do we believe, a board that we trust, that's lifted our club out of basket case and into proper competitive football, or some semi-literate nomark agent who thinks he's playing hardball by trying to stir shite on a fans' messageboard, you lose. Badly.
Oh, and you might like to consider that right now, what most of us are doing is glorying in last night's brilliant performance and the only way we want to think of Billy is in terms of his magnificent contribution to that. You're doing your client no favours by portraying him as just another money-grabbing journeyman. If you really want to advise him properly, tell him his best bet is stay here, keep working as hard as he has been and be part of a team that will put honours on his CV. If he does that, the financial rewards will follow and when he finishes his career, he'll have honours to look back on as well as wages, not just a series of sideways moves chasing an extra few quid because Mr 10% reckoned he could cut him a better deal somewhere else.
