Official thread and signing news
it's going to be really difficult for us to attract players in the next few years with Bellamy moving on (I think) and 2 expansion teams coming in. We've got 2 halves in their 30s so my guess would be the team will look pretty similar for the next 2-3 years. Really need a couple of younger/ fringe middles to make a leap next year.
Im not sure id want tino on a big deal he'd be 27 by the time he'd be back down here and hed be starting his 8th year of first grade, I don't think he's a guy id be wanting to have alot of money tied to a the back end of his career. Obviously if hes on 800-900k probably a different story but I don't think theres much chance of that.

Agreed…no way the Club goes all in for Tino. He comes back to Storm to play for a disciplined, well structured and professionally run club on decent coin…not insane coin.
Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time

Tino isn’t worth 1.5 the way he has been playing lately, I think 1 million is an overpay honestly, he is no Payne Haas, what makes him think he deserves more than him? I’d offer him NAS salary (900k from memory) and if he isn’t interested move on.

I’d be happy to pay Tino what NAS and Tui got combined as you will get twice what both of thiose guys outputted in 2025.
But challenge will be leaving enough to upgrade Harry.

I do think his effort is outstanding and he'd be a real forward leader for us but Tino is definitely in that good but not great category as a forward. I do think he can get near that level and wonder if coming back to us will help with that. At the right price we are the perfect fit for each other

Harry Grant doubled down on him signing a multi million dollar extension today, said he is staying and it will get done once his ashes commitments are out of the way. Huge for the club, couldn’t afford to lose Harry.
