Mary Hindge Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Well it was nige who said he was sold for footballing reason's and he hadn't developed as much as they had hoped maybe he went to Mr Glick that he had saved a massive 75k and please could he have a bonus???

JohnClement Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 It isnt the first time, the same was also true of Varney, who I predict will be back with us in May when Blackpool don't renew the loan or buy him. So we will be paying big wages to someone we can't play without invoking a big transfer increment. if roberts is injured we will be playing the academy left back next to the academy goalkeeper.

How do you know Blackpool won't sign him? He has done well for them. How do you know someone else won't sign/loan him? Opnion getting blurred with facts again.

Ramalama Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 So if the transfer fee was £400k, we effectively received £475k. Seems like better 'business' now. Was it good 'business' that we had no cover at left back last night and had to play a player who's not even good enough for football league level in his own position, let alone filling in another position?

I didn't say it was 'good' business. I said we effectively received a 'better' price than originally thought. My comment of 'business' was a critique of NC stating we had sold Moxey for 'footballing' reasons. I think selling Moxey without a replacement was a mistake, though for the record, i thought both Roberts and Pringle played well last night.

rynny Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 the same was also true of Varney After 16 games? Sorry doesn't seem right to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramblur Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 It isnt the first time, the same was also true of Varney, who I predict will be back with us in May when Blackpool don't renew the loan or buy him. So we will be paying big wages to someone we can't play without invoking a big transfer increment. if roberts is injured we will be playing the academy left back next to the academy goalkeeper. The following appears under "Contingent liabilities" in the 08/09 accounts:- Signing and other bonuses due to players under the terms of their contracts.......£710k Maximum liability under sell on clauses....£1.463m. You'll note that the first entry mentions players,as opposed to other clubs. Moxey was signed on 26 June,and so falls within these accounts.

davenportram Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I find it staggering that some people think a computer game company would gave inside knowledge on contracts. Surely if that were the case details would be all over thd papers regarding all high profile contracts. Also why would they bother even trying to get details of contracts on a transfer between Exeter and Derby for a player who was signed as cover and not first choice.

Dangerous Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Clough said he was sold for football reasons,and I believe that.Moxey was far better than roberts,and for them reasons he had to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CornwallRam Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Good spot, FM is usually very reliable for things like that. How do you know? I'm not saying you're wrong because I haven't got a clue either way, but surely the only way you can say that is if you know several pros well enough for the to confirm their wages to you.
