well whatever it is it doesn't really matter , i think most contracts run till 30th June and then if players sign at their new clubs on 1st July but again it's all irrelevant as you can negotiate a transfer anytime you want really
exactly. transfers can happen any time of day 365 days a year. its only registering that player with the league / FA that can happen within windows.
What's the latest with the full back from Exeter? Was the fourth bid successful? That one has gone a bit quiet
Exactly this. Particularly when several poor players on top money will be gone next June,and the room to manoeuvre will be available to us,at long last.
Going to assume the 4th bid wasn't successful, but doesnt mean a 5th or 6th one hasn't been Also worth saying the whole thing may have been fabricated by one Exeter journo.
everything has gone quiet mate, nothing at all coming from the club. So the options are 1) Nowts happening, nothing to report 2) We are waiting for the best players ever to grace League one and the club are keeping it close to their chest. There isn't anything in between
Just a bit strange there wasn't a follow up about a 5th bid or a withdrawal on our part or the lad signing a new deal at Exeter
I notice Wigan's new owner has set up a company that seems to specifically exist to sponsor Wigan. Guess its a way of getting more money into the club without falling foul of rules. We can moan about if all we like, but its actually the kind of thing I was expecting us to do with the Louis-Dreyfus Group. Maybe we will next season once the GAS deal is over.
You make good points and I agree with you in principle, but the main thing has to be to get out of this league. It is an embarrassment. Agree that we have to be right financially but it would only cost a small %age on the debt, which could then be addressed over time.
I'd agree. I assumed we had changed our minds before he agreed his exit and travelled up. we will probably never know the story but I'd love to
I know I keep going on about Madbob and he does have some inside knowledge but he said weeks ago that Speakman and Harvey were hopeless at negotiations and things weren't going to plan
