Wilson won't sign a new contract and is leaving to go to a higher league club.
Heard it from a good source at Morecambe!
Does anyone know if this is true?

Sadly i have heard the same....

Nothing surprises me about this sort of thing. Higher clubs with greater finances will always look at the likes of us as easy pickings when it comes to tempting players away.

However the grass isn't always greener elsewhere but we'd all move on if the finances are better. Loyalty is to oneself and ones family.

Probably nothing in it, but maybe Sammy was aware that this might happen, hence him bringing in Capaldi...

If true, then make him available now to the highest bidder. Certainly don't want a repeat of the Thommo saga.

That's his prerogative, though it's very early to be negotiating new contracts.

So my earlier suspicion about kenno being an agent, or a player, or someone wanting to stir up something behind the scenes to get something for a player, remains.

I know the grass isn't always greener. anyone hear where he's going? i heard championship but no set club was mentioned. Do you think he will stay?

what do you reckon kenno

As CC points out we have the very able capaldi ready to fill the gap, so its not a big deal

It would be a great shame to see Wilson go. I so much prefer to see him on the wing as opposed to being a left back, despite the fact he does push on. When he burst onto the scene at Morecambe he was player of the season, but being at left back has, in my opinion, stunted his progress.

Yes but Capaldi is only here till january isn't he?
will he stay?

Anyone know how long his current contract has left? Basically, will we get some decent cash for him or will we just lose him?

am sure he signed a 2year deal at the start of last season so mathematics his deal runs out after this season i reckon

A certain club just to the south who could do with sorting their defence out. Hint hint.

That Preston heysham? ha ha!
Think his contract runs out end of season so no hope of any money for him.
Can he talk to clubs in January and sign a pre deal thing?

Yes if he went it woun't be a pre deal we would want him going in the January Transfer window for a fee rather than him doing a thommo and getting away for nothing.

Turned 24 in October, so we aren't entitled to a transfer fee.

But even if he did go for nothing (aal speculation, he might not go at all), I wouldn't be that upset just like I wasn't when Thommo's did the same. Wilson cost us nothing and I don't think he's improved massively since being here. Besides, these players have come here, performed well putting a shift in, pushing the club forwards. In Thommo's case he has moved up a couple of levels since he left here, pushing his own career forwards. Using him as an example there were many opportunites where we could have sold Thommo (Bury were intested when we were in the Conference) but the board chose to keep him. Aside from the fact that many fans were given the opportunity to develop, there is also the arguement that we might not even be here without him. A transfer fee would have been nice, but look what we'd have missed out on. I still think this season has some twists and turns, I can't see how flogging Wilson cheaply in January will help matters.

The other scenario that is swilling around: Simply put Anthony Capaldi is wank. The sooner this freeloader is put out to grass the better. FA Cup final to Blue Square Premier in three season, you watch. A complete panic signing by Sammy when numbers were depleted. He adds nothing, and now can't even get a start when Wilson is suspended or unfit (resulted in a defensive reshuffle and Wilson playing despite being off the pace). He has done us a massive favour in signing a short term deal, anticipating a bigger 'better' club coming knocking in January:

Knock knock,
Who's there?
Barrow
Barrow who????
Barrow AFC I've got two heads can I shag your sister?? Give me six!!!

Under the right manager I think Lawrence could have improved. Instead he started well, ended up sitting back because Sammy wanted to keep the sheets clean, got frustrated and fell back on old habits like getting booked a lot, then became best mates with Darren Moss and shared Mossy's angst. The payback was bringing in Capaldi. How pissed off would you be? The best thing for Lawrence this season has been Mossy leaving but I bet he doesn't see it that way. Personally I think Lawrence is mustard and will improve massively. However like many with a lot of potential and things to prove - Thommo, Blackie, Carl Baker and Yatesy - he may not stay around to prove it here. A crying shame if it happened.

If he signs for someone else in January we will receive a nominal fee that recognises that he can go where he wants in the Summer.

Stay Wilson. Look what happend to Blackburn and Carlton. Back down to the Conference.

Chris Blackburn is a somewhat wasted talent in the Blue Square Premier

Isn't he from Liverpool? I reckon Tranmere in League One.

Never could understand CB's reasons for leaving after Wembley but probably he thought he wouldn't make it in the league. Seems like he was right.

As for DC...grass being greener elsewhere?

Personally I'd have neither back although their are quite a lot who would in DC's case.

Never thought he'd make it in the football league? Despite him leaving Morecambe to sign for Swindon in League 1....that makes sense

Oooops ....shows you how much of an influence that he had there that I'd forgotten about Swindon. All I could recall was Aldershot where he left to return to the Conf. IF he was as good in the League as some make out, why is he now back in the Conf?

Any suggestions or anyone know where Wilson will go?

when are you seeing your good source at Morecambe.

They may know by now.

This thread is pointless speculation IMO. It's one thing speculating on players coming in but this stuff really can't do the morale of the team any good at all

All we have at the moment is someone with a rather large spoon
