Haks asking for 5-6k
Quote from: Spilsby Red on May 28, 2024, 09:19:16 pmHaks asking for 5-6kProbably double what we were offering. Where has that come from?
I thought Hakeeb was one of the players in January who turned our season around, but the last 4/5 games of the season, he noticeably dropped off.
And he’s shit at penalties…
I think Haks might live to regret this, his CV is pretty unimpressive - we are the one bright spot on his average career to date - and he's immediately jumped ship. He might earn a few more quid elsewhere but I'd guess he'll be back to benchwarming and zeroes in the 'goals' column.

Maybe burnt out? I don't know but he never had that sort of impact elsewhere?We were as good for him as he was for us.
His form for us was nothing like anything previously in his career.He scored 9 in 19 games for us, before that he’d scored 8 goals in 6 years. For Scunthorpe he got 16 goals in 139 games or about a goal every 8/9 games.The evidence would suggest Grant and the team he played in were the reason he was good. It might “click” for him somewhere else but he’s a bit of a gamble.
Both have had interest from L1 clubs!
There loss, not ours
Over 27% of Hakeebs career goals came in that loan spell with us. I would have thought he would have loved to have played under Grant, Cliff, Coops and Glover again. More fool him I think.
Seems like most people agree that whilst some would like both to have re-signed, the majority consider that it will be not a great loss, given the clubs current activity.I liked both players, and was always looking for Harrison to perform like the last two months. He's a great striker of the ball and pretty good with his head too, so good luck to him for the future.I just wonder what effect having Haks, in team, helped the likes of Harrison and some of the others to improve their own performances. We can't deny Haks was special and we were witnessing a very different approach, did this have any effect on the way Moly was approaching games etc?
