Its a bit different to the pre-contract stuff the likes of Lewandowski have signed...and even those aren’t legally binding. There’s a bit on wiki re a Scottish Free-agent who got out of his pre-contract.

REDOXO Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 The issues is always two fold. 1 Contract 2 Registration You can have a contract with one club but if you are registered with another then they are the only club you can play for. Think loanees COD is contracted and registered with us as such he could only possibly have signed an agreement of any kind with anyone else If the club has agreed a sale at the end of the season Odowda s fee to us will be on the basis of he has a year to run and this typically means his value has lessoned marginally Per Joe Bryan say, who was prepared to run out his contract. However this is a dangerous game as a major injury could see a player run out his contract but still be unfit thus not getting paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that starting 11 know they are leaving and couldn't be bothered to turn up?. There's a difference between not playing well and not being bothered. His work rate recently has been really poor. He rarely tracks back or makes any effort to do so and is wasteful on the ball. Players may have a bad game but I at least expect some effort, and he's shown very little as of late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLRed Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 If he is injured for a few weeks, I feel he's already played his last game for us as will definately be gone in the summer. Sad really given the opportunity the club have given him to develop and get to where he is. I reckon he will be one of those players that will move on but the grass won't be greener on the other side. hes inconsistent and its concerning that his form ties in line with contract refusal etc. not really the type of attitude that will drive us to promotion. look at Ramsey in comparison. Is leaving for juventus but continues playing out of his skin for arsenal. First class attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see this, but I’m a bit amazed by people saying he is worth millions and millions, like he is the next big thing? Yes he is a good player, or can be but is he really a great player? Yes I understand he is a full international, but even I qualify for Ireland , but is he consistent enough for us really to be thinking he is Premier League or top end Championship bound ? He’s had his fair share of lengthy injuries too, no little knocks for him, it’s weeks and months recovery time. Dont get me wrong, I do like him but over the months watching the Championship this season and last for example, I’ve seen a fair few wingers look just as good or better.

I see Callum as one who can run and run but his problem is where he runs to. Round in circles, down blind alleys and any direction to get it on his left foot as he cannot use his right.

If he could consistently play like this he wouldn’t be with us, so let’s see where the interest comes from. Maybe it will be from the Premier League where they can attract players and then leave them on the sidelines more often than not. Someone has put footage of him having a blinder, but to be fair there could be so much more posted about the times where he has missed many opportunities too, and no I don’t want that posted. But as far as I’m concerned he has been, ‘great’, ‘average’, ‘below par’ and ‘unavailable’ for us, not in equal measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishRed Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 I doubt we are going to,see COD play for us again - it would appear things may have gone sour due to his refusal, or his agents refusal, to agree a new deal. He is massively inconsistent but does have something, maybe BCFC is not the place for him. Anyway, if he goes, good luck to him and we move on - no big deal.
