Sorry @Saff Just to give context to my comment above, earlier in the thread when this move was first mooted I asked how a buy back clause actually works in practice. To spell it out to an ignoramus like me @Southern Adam kindly explained and gave an example of how it would work using purely theoretical figures to demonstrate. Within an hour or so those hypothetical figures had been posted by someone on RTG and then started popping up in various other places and reports on the internet with ITKs claiming it as exclusives. As Adam has said, it's either very coincidental that his figures happened to be spot on across the board or it's a great demonstration as to how rumour and misinformation can spread and become fact on social media and the internet. Edit: here's the post: Summer transfer rumours @Nads said it too in his example.
I can only assume the addition of Cirkin has seen him pushed down the pecking order as well. He would have been good backup but time to move on.
With Hume not signing the latest contract offer, or his agent playing silly buggers, we should go for another LB. We cannot afford to be messed about or to hang about. Imho, Hume is being a plonker, or is listening to some bad advice, probably a bit of both. Pity I am a fan of his.
If the lad doesn’t want to sign a new contract, fair enough, shame as he had potential but my major concern with him is that he is injury prone. Good luck to him in his new club I say, thanks for trying mate and keeping our physios in a job
Yes theres a thread on here that i wrote about him for any discussions concerning him. This is the transfer thread remember everyone.
If the club don’t offer him a contract I’m pretty sure we won’t get compensation if he decides to leave. Club are playing this really well, not throwing more money than they believe someone is worth, covering themselves with the compensation angle and also filling the position with a better player. Hume now wouldn’t even be first choice if he signed. Nice to see we are doing things professionally for a change!
Theres a thread about Hume? Whats the point in going through the effort of creating threads when people just want to discuss everything on here? This thread is meant for transfer gossip only ffs
Well it kind of is transfer related…with him being available for a transfer elsewhere should he wish. Also, you can’t see threads if the creator is on your blocked list. Had no idea it was there…or why I blocked you in the first place for that matter.
If im bocked then thats fair enough lol. If i come on here i want to read about transfer news not read through pages and pages of none related stuff that theres a thread all ready been created for. The same happened with Pritchard when he got covid. I wrote a thread about it and then came on here for some transfer goss. Low and behold there was already 3 pages on here discussing the matter. Its totally ruining the forum in my opinion. This place needs to tick over with new threads about different subjects otherwise it all becomes one big muddle stuck on one thread.
