Simeon Jackson - Released by Norwich

Think if we could get him would be a really good signing.Depends on his wages but think he could score goals in championship.

    If we get him - Fantastic.

    If we don't - I don't think i could cope with having 2 Jacko's in the team.

    Would be very happy to see us pick up either Jackson or Vaughan, or even better still, both of them............

    According to this
    http://enbsports.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/estimated-salaries-for-canadian.html?m=1
    He was on about £10k a week. If we could offer him a pay cut with decent performance related bonus he might be tempted.

    Wasn't fuller meant to be on about 8-10 anyway?

    Thought he was on closer to 15G? I'm probably wrong though.

    Jackson would be a quality signing.

    I thought Fuller was on 15k too.

    Hmmm... Regardless of what Fuller was on, £10k is a lot on one player. Would you accept it Jackson if he was the only forward we brought in ?

    Well what was Haynes on to? That must also be taken into account when considering our wage budget.

    Along with other great signings McCloud,Fleetwood,Gray,Dickson and Varney a Charlton legend in the making, No Thanks

    Only if you're assuming our wage budget will be equal to last year. Without an increase in ticket revenues and without a sponsor (at the moment) that £8m p/a loss looks like a hole that might get bigger.

    Would be a quality signing.

    Wouldn't imagine the wages would be a massive issue. He wouldn't have been on mega bucks at Norwich.

    If the £10k a week is true, then we should be able to match that - or at least get close.

    Last summer we were all expectant of a few quality signings to take us forward and none materialised. This season something must happen to replace those that have departed but I very much doubt that we will be getting in any "names". I think we can forget the Jacksons and Vaughans and must settle for frees and loans.

    Does that mean we can never sign a striker again incase they turn out like on of the above?

    What positions do Frees and Loans play?

    A lot on this board have long believed SJ will solve it all

    We t/o about £8M pa don't we. £10K pw is £520K pa which would be 1/16th of our t/o on one player. Can't see why we would want to do that for Jackson personally

    If he's being released by a Prem club and almost guaranteed to sign for a Championship club then he can't expect to be on Prem wages again. I'm sure he'd listen to a lower offer. I really wanted us to sign him when he was at Gillingham but Norwich put paid to that. And gave us Gary Doherty. I'm actually still quite angry at Norwich I've jsut realised. Plenty of teams will be looking at Jackson though so I wouldn't be at all surprised if we saw him go to a club with more on offer

    I saw him play in Argentina once and he did absolutely naff all. The fact it was against their national team is irrelevant.

    Whether we can offer him what he's after is one thing , maybe , maybe not , although i'm sure once he meets CP if he's a player on Chris's radar he will find it hard to resist , you'd like to think he would do better over a course of a season than Ricardo Fuller for instance , i wonder what his stats were when he was in the Championship with Norwich , anyone know?

    He's only scored 17 goals in 73 appearances for Norwich, not exactly setting the world alight...
  • Garrymanilow
    Garrymanilow Posts: 13,235
    How many of those did he start though? And we all know statistics aren't a good indicator of how good a player will be for a new team, as Yann can attest to

    That's true but surely you sign a player based on his previous record with other clubs.. Powell new Kermo from Leicester and took a punt which worked well.
