Scott Hogan - retired

[kippaxvilla2]

I see our Scott has expressed his desire to join SHA permanently and mentions contract clauses.  Nice of him to show due respect to his paymasters. 

[Ad@m]

Who?

[Steve67]

They can't afford him, they have no money unless they sell Bellingham.

[olaftab]

A straight swap I suggest.

[Steve67]

A straight swap I suggest.

Nah, they can have hurrah Henri as well.

[eamonn]

Aside from a signed and framed photograph of Christophe Dugarry and an old David Dunn jockstrap, I'm not sure they have anything to offer.

After scoring a busting load of goals his worth has gone up

I reckon we should be looking for offers in and around at least a box of crunchy nut clusters
and if we can get a bidding war going maybe even push it up to a 30% extra bumper pack

[Des Little]

I’d take a goldfish and a balloon for him, and that includes delivery. The useless little twat.

[LukeJames]

Probably got about 1m before we loaned him to them, we can probably ask about 6m now. Nice one.

It's like someone taking your broken car, fixing it up, valetting it, whilst paying you for the privalge.


Thanks guys, you're the best.

To be fair it is a perfect example all round of a successful loan period.

His goals helped Small Heath stay out the bottom six and serious relegation worries.

He will almost certainly be sought after by several Championship clubs meaning Villa can ask a decent price for him, higher than before his loan spell at the sty.

His career has had a kick start and he will probably pocket a decent signing on fee from a Championship club.

I doubt he will end up at Small Heath as I suspect he will have better options and I also suspect they couldn't afford him.

[Sexual Ealing]

I can't imagine that he'll go anywhere unless his final year is paid up by Villa. He wouldn't have been seeing a contract like he's on again under normal circumstances. He'll be looking at £6k per week maximum wherever he ends up once it ends.

[David_Nab]

He is a championship level player , no one in that league is going to have any cash next season with no fans apart from those who go down ( which could include us ) so I doubt we are going to get very much for him at all

[kippaxvilla2]

Officially signed for SHA.  Oh my they’ve given him a four year deal!

[kippaxvilla2]

They really do take small time to new levels.  This is from their OS.  Aston and the Clarets.

And it was with The Bees where he really flourished, scoring 21 times in 36 appearances and earning himself a £9m move to Villa.

His playing time with the Aston side was limited as spent three spells out on loan during his tenure at Villa Park, at Sheffield United, Stoke City and most recently Blues.

His 61st and final appearance for The Clarets came in an FA Cup third round tie against Swansea City in January 2019.
