Transfer Rumours Jan 2018 City Transfer Thread

Does he have a clause in his contract if we get relegated to League 1?

 

“A player that is rated at £2m in this window could be £6m or £7m in the next window and the one after that even more.”

Perhaps somebody should tell him this doesn’t apply if the player no longer has a contract in the next window.

 

If true it shows how desperate we were last January to pay more in salary for a reserve from a comparatively cash strapped Ligue 1 club than an established Premier League player.

Unless, contrary to what we were told, he didn’t have a reduction clause. 25k would’ve been what I’d have expected to pay him last season.

 

I’d be very surprised if we’d put double relegation clauses into anyone’s deal signed before this season. That’d be some serious good foresight.

 

Tongue in cheek really. A jibe at Ehab really. Doubt he’s listening.

 

Makes sense that it's Grosicki since he didn't have a relegation clause supposedly, only a Gentleman's agreement.

 

He will be waiting a long time if he's waiting for inflation to go negative.

 

Sounds like the sensible option would be to have a big squad and then sell them all for massive profit in 6 months.

 

Problem is he seems to be under the impression all players are available for to him at £2m and can then be resold for £10m (ONO)

 

A tower block in goal, a row of terraced along the back four, a couple of speedy bungalows out wide, good solid pair of semi-detached in the middle, a proper well built council house up top supported ably by a luxurious Knightsbridge apartment.

Get Rightmove in as Manager who can also act as agents.

We’ll be quids in.

 

Probably thinks he can bamboozle us thicko fans with his superior expertise in high finance.

 

I thought Ehab had said every single player had such a clause? You mean he wasn’t always entirely accurate and / or honest?

 

OK when you are the beneficiary though?

 

Exactly.

It's complete bollocks. If he believed in what he said he should have invested all the parachute money into new players and then sat back and watched their value rise.

The man's an idiot.

 

Or more likely he thinks we’re idiots and will swallow it.

 

Correct me if i'm wrong please but Ehab in the YEP article, more or less stated in all but words, that if we had land the lad from Aberdeen then MD would possibly have gone, great so there you go Nigel you're in the HDM stating you hope you can hang on to MD beyond this season, idiot in the YEP saying he would have gone if the circumstances had been right, good luck Nigel trying to talk Daws into staying

 

Spot on

 

Surprised you didn't put yerself in that line up Cheshy.

As a ****ehouse.
