Ok maybe I've misunderstood his tweet but i reckon itll be a large amount paid up straight away rather than installments Be interesting if the clubs annouced the fee or not
Gonna give my hopefully measured view. If its 15 million up front and Spurs are getting a cut, it's not good. If we sign Simic as well you're looking at about 5 million left to sign a replacement, which is what I'm told we are planning. I've always said, £25 million should be the minimum and premiums should be added the further along we got, so I can't go back on that thought. However, I get that the clubs hand may have been forced. Clarke wanted to leave for the Prem and he's in his prime so can't be slated for leaving, he's too good for this level. Hopefully Simic signs and Isidor is a striker option as opposed to a wide option. Big moves needed in the next few days, think with two forwards signing, Rusyn will have to go, Ekwah still up in the air, Ba in a tough position and half of our defenders could potentially leave.
I'll take a pragmatic approach to this.. Clarke is a great player and is ambitious. He wants to play at the highest level and be paid the going rate for doing so. As for the fee... nobody knows and probably will never now as Sunderland seem to go down the route of "Undisclosed" also, If the owner is happy with what Ipswich want to pay then that's all that matters. Lets concentrate on who is here and who is coming. I wish Jack all the best for the future, but football is transient and players come and go....this one just happens to be be going
For what it’s worth, ice baths are fantastic. I have at least three a week. More so on an evening now rather than a morning, absolutely relaxes you and gives you the best night sleep you’ll ever have. 5 degrees for 5 minutes, your testicles will disappear mind but the mental health benefits are brilliant.
N how much the sell on % is, wonder if theyve accepted a lower fee but got a big sell on % included in it thatll boost the fee Be funny if he turns down the move - he wont but we can dream I reckon theyll have a few lined up with that money Time for Mundle to shine now, hes def got the ability to do it but as RLB said he has to find that consistency that Clarke has According to some on social media the season is over already!!
Tried the plunger pools? Been looking into one for a while but haven’t bit the bullet yet apologies for derailing the thread
Seems harsh. It's seems to echo the vast vast majority of what fans are saying in social media. I mean most said this would be rejected and laughted at the initial 15m. It was accepted. So I wouldn't be too scathing on Barnes.
aye that’s what I got, just a £60 quid one from Amazon and some ice moulds, chlorines tablets and a floater. eventually want to upgrade to a bigger one with a chiller attached but got this to see if I would keep up with it, which I have. didn’t want to belive in the benefits of it but absolutely do, couldn’t recommend them more.
Am I missing something in regards to the fee? People are hung up on it being X up front or whatever but as we’ve seen more often than not transfer fees are just a number to keep the books right. As long as £20m goes into the clubs pot we can reinvest an amount based on that, it’s not like your average Joe waiting for his mam to chuck £20 in the bank before he can spend it?
Haway the Friday announcement(s). Beautiful British weather this morning for some scarf pics! Photographer - “Just lean into the rain and wind a bit…..and try to smile!”
I’ll give it a go, used to jump in a wheely bin full of ice post rugby years ago, felt brand new after it, no brainer at £60 like
have a look at Lumi, sure I seen them advertising the bog standard plunge pool on their website for £50 last week, they are the main one’s in the market now for it.
It’s not rain it’s all of wearside in mourning mate, think I’ve contributed 80% of it woke up in a right huff
