It’s sad to see such articles as I can’t imagine what it does to the mind of a young player.

Nonetheless, I really hope both lads have the world at their feet as suggested because let’s face it, we’d all love to play football at the highest level possible. Good luck.


i would really like to know biccys favourite biscuit.

Think that’s the site that called Mcatee earlier in the week and appears to be one of the better websites of that kind.

I imagine there will be add-ons. It's becoming increasingly difficult to say what a deal is worth nowadays when the upfront fees could be small but the clauses could earn you big money.

Having said that, half a million quid for someone who's never appeared for the club... as much as I'd love us to blood young local talent, and as much as I hate to see big clubs hoovering up young talent, we have to accept our place in the food chain, and under this ownership I'm 100% certain that money would be reinvested into the club and not to pay off a debt that a director's pipe dream originally cost us.

Bit better than 25k that. This part of the article made me laugh...

JSF would have taken £10K and an extra £10K if he played over 100 games in the next three season for United's first team!

Oh, forgot the £10K to buy out a 25% sell on clause.


Might be able to pay his BENIGE loans off quicker.

How does EPPP work if they have to fork out 500k? I thought the point of that was so they could hoover up for peanuts?

Having read the latest Cod Almighty report it might be likely £500k could have gone into a pension fund!


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Increased domestic youth budget due to not being able to bring in EU under 18s now? Definitely not saying that's it, but it could be a factor and they could just be trying to get us to do a deal quicker and get Leicester out the picture. Is EPPP done through a tribunal fee? If so and they can bypass that and just get us to accept 500k then it kind of makes sense?

Grist to Leicester is old news, this story broke about a month ago.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”
