Betelgeuse Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 I was speaking to a Orient fan the other day (on another forum!) and he seems to think they've been linked with Partridge because they have sold 1 of their young defenders (Zakouani) for £1M. Seems like there could be some truth in it because Partridge is a London boy,Orient are in our division now and they got a bit of money so maybe it could happen! Not sure how much city would want for him though because we paid £150k last summer, I know we wont get that for him now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 They will have to wait for the outcome of the court case wont they? Then as far as a fee is concerned I agree we should pay them some compensation or at least his petrol costs to Leyton . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimmerD Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 Partridge definitely will not be going to Orient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then as far as a fee is concerned I agree we should pay them some compensation or at least his petrol costs to Leyton .Why would they have to wait on the outcome of the court case.He is very unlikley to get a custodial sentence for this offence, unless he has previous for such offences. If he did it would be pretty short.Any contract would just need to reflect the possibility, it does not stop any deal being done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the specific details so I will take what you say on face value. I was going by the stuff I have seen on here which seemed to suggest he was in bigger trouble.

Betelgeuse Posted June 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 If something does come of his court case, e.g. prison, then do the club have the right to terminate his contract?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comments are a reflection of court sentencing policy rather than anything relating to this particular case or MR PARTRIDGE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
