Ipswich Town have called for a transfer embargo to be placed on Premier League new-boys Swansea City. The Tractor Boys have demanded the ban over the Swans' failure to pay a bonus due on Tamás Priskin's loan move to the Liberty Stadium. The dispute relates to a £160,000 payment Ipswich claim they are owed following Swansea's promotion. Chief executive Simon Clegg said: "I am hugely disappointed that a legally binding agreement reached in good faith by both clubs as part of Swansea's final push for promotion is now being disputed. "I am genuinely delighted for Swansea City and their fans but the attempted re-negotiation and deliberate misinterpretation of agreed terms by their chairman is not fitting for a club which has just secured the ultimate prize in Championship football and with it a £90 million windfall. "Tamás arrived in Swansea fit and became injured whilst under their care. That's football, but contracts have to be honoured and I have absolutely no interest in re-negotiating the agreement. "As a result of Swansea refusing to pay our invoices, I have reported them to the Premier League, sought an immediate transfer embargo and am now seeking full payment of all outstanding sums with the agreed contractual interest rate of 5% above base." Priskin made the move in March, but made just four substitute appearances before picking up an injury.
Old news this. I like the idea of a news team on here, but there's already a thread almost identical to this with pages of replies...
it wont happen as its loose change we are looking at here, i just hope the board will keep their finger on the ball so to speak, lets keep everything above board at all times so trivial things (not to ipswich i suppose) like this dont happen again, huw will settle our debt on Monday and we can carry on building....
