RumRed Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 Just had a ganders at Gaschat, it appears they don't know the difference between a sell on clause and a release clause. Our old friend HG clearly stating that DC has announced none of the players have a sell on clause.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also had a bigger net spend than Arsenal, so obviously we're massive, Wael's a trillionaire now and we're coming for you. To be honest, I am over the moon he's staying. We'll lose him in January or in the summer for free, but even for £500,000 we won't get a good enough player to replace the value he brings to the side, particularly with just one day to get the replacement in. You think that £500k would have been spend on a replacement..?! I'd like to know who actually bid for Bodin. I think it's highly unlikely that Wally wouldn't have welcomed another asset being stripped, for any price. Your league status will be of no concern to him in a couple of years anyway, imo.

I strongly believe that we can compete with most sides in this division. Keeping Bodin is a massive statement. FTG The massive statement will be if we get Bodin to sign an extended contract without a bloody stupid sell on clause. Other than that he is just fulfilling his contract.

Was indeed a masterstroke by Osman. Wayne was on fire that evening.. Story: my relative was a Man U fan living in Stockport. He bought a ticket (before our replay with Liverpool) believing obviously, that we would get turned over at Anfield and Liverpool would roll into town. Once it was us and Stockport he lost interest and gave me his tickets. I was in the Stockport end, we scored very early (by Shail I believe), I celebrated, got took round to the City end. Result. Wayne was on fire. As was Leroy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if you have an inclination that your star player "could" be off you'd start making plans way before the last day (eg the recruitment of Baker when it was possible Flint might be leaving)? That's what we do though, that's not the Gas way. Bit like when we had an inclination that the plans for the new stadium at Ashton Vale were in doubt. City released plans for a redeveloped AG 6 months before AV was declared dead in the water. The AQs didn't bother with that...instead they dropped hints (new sprinklers, new seats for the tent, "don't the carpets and curtains look clean today?" etc) 'Evolution' apparently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right on the stadium front. I disagree on the transfer thing though, if for example a deal for Bodin went through at 4/5 there's no guarantee that we would have pushed a deal through, there's an awful lot of stories from an awful lot of clubs less tinpot than us that didn't manage to secure targets by the deadline, even if a contingency was planned for.

Billy Boots will sign a pre-contract in Jan an walk for nothing in July or you'll sell him, like you did with Taylor last Jan, at a fire sale price. Why didn't Wally and Dopey extend his contract in the summer? Don't tell me it's because you would have had to give him a pay rise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine he didn't want to sign a contract in the summer because if he played well again this year he'd easily get a championship club.

It potentially could. He is a more valuable player with a longer contract and clubs may be less inclined pay.

Hi mate As for travelling to Bradford, I'm away for the weekend, but don't think I'd have bothered to make the journey to Bradford for a 12.30 kick off to be fair, especially with the game on sky. it's been enough effort trying to convince the other half to find a pub in Polzeath that's got the game on and after seeing our defence for this game I'll probably regret it by 1.00.
