If you'd asked me 8 months ago I'd have said more than that.
After the past 6 months and where we are now, I agree, maybe half of that. And I can see all 3 happening .... and others.
It's a good job the club have been putting out such great reassuring messages about their master plan for next season otherwise we'd be thinking we're in **** street.

£1.5-2m each isn't a lot.... All have age, Championship experience.... and the club doesn't have to sell. All three clubs rumoured to be interested have money....

Stick him next to a 'Curtis Davies' type and the lad will flourish.

He's not the finished article and has been left to teach himself here - needs to learn from an experienced old head.

This. Reece Burke came on considerably when he was paired with Tommy Elphick a couple of seasons ago.

Another footballing subtlety utterly beyond our moronic vice chairman.

If they have an option to walk away and pick up a 100% payrise,it will happen,that's a stonewall certainty.

The club doesn't have to sell? Errr....thats not really the point with our beloved owners. They will cash in on anything they can that isn't nailed down and replace with a cardboard simile.

I think Wayne Brown in 2008 is about the best example of this there could ever be.

If you wrote down a list of his qualities it wouldn't be impressive. Slow, aging, not big for a centre half, fairly limited on the ball. But his effect on the team and particularly on Michael Turner was immense. Ehab's stats can't quantity stuff like that.

No chance of getting anything approaching that for each of them. Lopes perhaps a touch over 1m, JDW and Burke maybe 1m each, but falling into League One means fees will be reduced.

Maybe why Brentford signed jansson from Leeds?

If we have activated a relegation clause on his contract to give him reduced wages, then the bidding club just has to offer the release fee and then they are free to open contract talks with the player over signing for them. As Wilks has only just signed for City, I don't see how a relegation clause would have been activated at this stage, but who knows with football contracts these days.

I’d have thought his contract would have a relegation clause the same as everyone else’s?

Wilk's signed 2 Jul apparently or maybe the day before. They must have known then that they were likely to go down, so I would assume that his contract will have been based on a wage for Div 1 and in the unlikely event that we stayed up then a wage for the Championship.

As we are not a party to the what the contract says, then it is pure speculation of cause, but I cannot see why it would be worded in an away that there was a relegation clause in it, just a wage level for whichever league we found ourselves in.

I think it will purely come down to Ehab accepting a bid if this figure of £1.2m I've seen bandied about is true, then if they paid say £500k for him, Ehab may take the money and let him leave, if the player agrees.
