I have heard it was only £100,000, 25% sell on fee and a % of (any) world cup fee. Either way we do have to be careful of the fees, the money coming in has to cover the losses as well, which are.coming down. I just think I don't see anyone other than the obvious paying £500k. The last time we all did it oushed the prices up of all players and led to many of the issues we've all struggled with iver the last 20 years. IMHO of course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the case, then they are trying to avoid a tribunal which suggests they are not 100% confident of their original position. Take them to the tribunal receive the money and invest in a player we actually need and want. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've not got a good record when it comes to legal proceedings when we're involved so I'll assume they're shitting it now. An award in our favour would have a big knock on towards any Shankland bid. And maybe even bolster ours if we're considering moving for him. That in itself would he fucking glorious. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Utd are automatically entitled to a cut of the world cup fee. Any club the player was registered to over past two years get a cut. I can't see why Man Uts would be nickle and diming over 50k here and 50k there. They probably make more on sock sales in Taiwan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Gordon or GTF I think big Ogren would and should be asking for some of that Maroon Pound. Not a geriatric (while still very good) goalkeeper on wages we'd be mental to be giving him. Plus we've got Charlie, Ryan and Ross. We dont really need a goal keeper with that defence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMS has zero monetary value, probably costs us a decent wage and isn't very good. If we were somehow able to punt him and avoid the hassle of a tribunal it'd be a win, so "shitting it" seems a bit of a reach. Any fee for Neilson is covered by the Hickey money banked today, not to mention the millions of guaranteed extra revenue from Europe and additional season ticket sales. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is us, it allows us to get a player, we shouldn't be able to afford, at the lowest possible fee. But due to how it has been constructed Man U get a fee and (potential) sell on fee that gives them what they feel they are warranted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t see GMS starting every week but he’d be a useful option and the sentimental value would be worth it. Still very fond of the wee man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve no hard feelings personally. He came in for nothing, entertained us for a few years and then left for a fee. I’d be happy to watch him eek out his twilight years with a few cameo nutmeg appearances. Disclaimer: I have been out in the sun all day and now making a hefty dent in the local red wine. Probably not the best time to be offering advice on contractual matters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven W Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Anyone confirm for me .... I've not seen it anywhere, but I'm right in thinking that both home v Livingston and away v Hearts will get pushed back 24 hours as they are after our European ties? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm noting it quoted in Edinburgh papers that Hearts didn't include a %age sell on clause in their transfer contract for Hickey. That seems a bit foolish in light of the £18 million reported fee Bologna received. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of many clownshoe moves by the club at that time, unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked him up until his last season when he couldn’t give a shit. Only performed when the cameras were there. I have no problem with a player wanting to move to a bigger club and try to develop their career, I think any player worth their salt wants to develop and improve. Just don’t give up on the club that’s still paying your wages or the fans who are putting their money into that club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loemba90 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Team fly to Spain tomorrow for a week of training and a game v Port Vale. Would have liked to have seen another couple signings on board by now, but if they’re of similar quality to Levitt and Fletcher I will forgive the club for taking their time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
