    Anyone have any idea if we get a decent % if Bale does indeed jet off to Real Madrid or Barca this summer? Would be a nice boost to the transfer kitty...

    We get exactly 0% of any fee Spurs sell him for. The sell on clause was exchanged for £3mill as we were really short for cash at the time.

    Indeed, all the family jewels were sold off. And we were such a well run club back then, so the pundits said. <doh>

    Yeah, swear we cashed it in early. Sell on clause gone for some nominal fee, plus Tommy Forecast.

    Was 5 mill rising to 10 mill plus a sell on clause. We sold out for 5 mill plus 3 mill and no sell on clause. A terrible deal.

    Thought it was higher than 20%, but that could be just gossip. Isn't Bournemouth waiting on a 40% sell on clause on Lallana...they must really have hoped we'd sell him by now.

    40% for Chamberlain, I'm not sure he'll turn out as good as Bale though!

    Heard it only went up to 40% if he became a England international.
