Dindeleux Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 http://www.heraldscotland.com/sport/16421588.hamilton-are-no-diddy-club-and-will-fight-to-get-125m-from-lewis-fergusons-move-to-aberdeen/ Thought it was odd that Hamilton referred to the Docherty and McKenna cases but looked into it and noted that they're at the same age Ferguson's at. Ferguson is miles ahead of them in terms of top flight appearances. In fact, McKenna hadn't actually played a first team minute in the Premiership at the same age Ferguson is now. Didn’t click the link but if it’s £125 million they want for him I think they are onto plums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Tunbridge Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Aberdeen have fucked themselves here. Hamilton would have defo took 300k and 10-15% of the next sale despite what Les and Ronnie are saying. Wouldn't surprise me if the tribunal decides on 600K + and 20% of the next sale.

bpdon Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 What can they do if he turns the fucking contract down? Ridiculous statement.It’s not ridiculous. Based on what Martin Canning said, Accies didn’t start discussing a new contract with Ferguson until March when his old contract only had 3 months left. That doesn’t sound to me like a club convinced by the value they are peddling in the media now. If they genuinely believed they had a million pound man on their hands, that contract would have been under his nose long before Aberdeen came sniffing.

10menwent2mow Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Why would it be £600k for a guy who played 14 games for the club. Have I not read elsewhere that he only joined Hamilton at 13/14. I'd reckon about £250,000 would be more than fair. Let's face it, had he been under contract at Hamilton that would've been a very reasonable transfer fee in March Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Some of the things that the panel has to take into account are: 1st team experience costs incurred other offers received contract offerred. i expect the first is in Accies favour and the others in ours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this talk of £650k plus sell on clauses is total nonsense. Sell on clauses have got nothing to do with it whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpdon Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 They still offered him one and he turned it down didn't he?Yes. I’m not denying that and I hope Aberdeen pony up a fair development fee for him as a consequence. I’m highlighting the flaws in Accies valuation arguments. They made a late contract extension offer for a player who couldn’t even get in their subs bench for most of last season. But we are to accept that at the same time Hamilton saw him as the next James McCarthy and worth a 7 figure sum. Aye, OK.Accies are grand standing in the media to deflect from their mismanagement. I hope that goes against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferguson was on the bench most of the season up until making his debut in January. Just accept you’ll be coughing at least 500k and move on.
