This needs spreading about. Stop all the waffling fron many.

Just gone to check the crack today. Barnes is reporting an agreement has been made today. Yesterday there wasn't one in place apparently. This agreement as well, it's not as basic as it sounds, aparently only prevents other club offering a prearrangement. Personal terms would still need to be agreed in Nov (when a propper binding one can be put in place)in if he turns them down anyone can offer him a contract. All a pre agreement does here is give us first offer. That's my understanding of it anyway. Nothing to cling our hopes on.

I'm sad it's not very legally binding at the moment. He could end up anywhere now :(

That`s better than nowt mate. Only just mind.

Is November the end of the Russian season? If so they were wanting that hefty fee for even less time than we thought.

No, it's because you can't sign a proper pre-agreement with him until he enters last 3 months. This pre agreement would consist of legally binding contractual terms(his playing contract) So he signed for them in late jan so late October we can offer him his contract, which he can sign which means he'll officially join when the window opens. This present agreement only means we get to offer him the said contract first.

That`s a bit clearer. <ok>

First option, first chance, get in and get him on board. Not great but not as bad as I thought.

It means we've got to be very careful and not try to over negotiate with him as we open the door for others. Put Yann in a very very strong position. If he wants to chase the money I'd say we'll have no chance in getting him as every single club in this league and quite a few overseas would pay him more than we would. We haven't helped with his treatment. Hopefully us the fans have done enough to get under his skin.
 
Yann must have the patience of a saint if he is willing to stick by us till January.
I know he's still picking up his wages, but he is a footballer and has a relatively short career so to sit it out for what will be seven months is,quite staggering.
That's if he does wait for us, the club and fans must really have got under his skin if he does eventually come to us. Here's hoping.

So we have shown an interest in the fabric but haven't been measured up for the suit yet?

If he likes pink and purple, we will nail him on a 5 ..

Ha'way Yann, get in the ****ing van man..<laugh><ok>
