Shouldn’t have to hold out though should they? Wolves should have honoured the deal they agreed to and signed. There’s enough money to go round for everyone to be happy…..Wolves were making £31,960,000 the greedy bastards!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the whole deal and how it’s been handled is shocking They've got 4 million out of it. They'll be alright... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but it’s a lot easier said than done when you’re risking 4 million. We never got paid on Micah, but I’m sure if Villa had paid a fee and city did the same to us- Corney would’ve bitten their hand off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitts Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Micah went to Fioritina on loan, his contract with City expired at the end of the loan and then went to Villa on a free so no transfer fee involved. Corney turned down £500k from City to buy the sell on clause in the hope of a big move but ended up with nothing, which is probably why he compromised with the Tarky sell on. Cannot really blame him for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudemedic Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 19 minutes ago, BP1960 said: I'm inclined to think think Richards move abroad lost us the sell on clause. Which was the move that gained City a fee. IIRC Fiorentina paid £1.5 million loan fee, which could have entitled us to £300,000 (20%). Depending on how the contract was worded (loan fees may not have been covered). But like @Lee Sinnottsaid it seems extremely likely Corney (or even one of the other 2) sold our sell-on fee. Richards' move to Villa after his loan to Fiorentina was a free transfer. We'd have got nowt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youd have thought he'd remember Latics before he agreed to the move abroad. He must have known about the sell on clause. I suppose though agents were behind it and he'd be advised to take the best offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't expect any player to prioritise us over his career when he had a brief relationship with the club literally half his (then) lifetime before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 (edited) Thanks fellow scout Adam for passing on this information. I'd previously recommended him to Latics, but I'm sure he will be excellent for Ebbsfleet and we will have to be very wary of him when we play against them in September. https://www.ebbsfleetunited.co.uk/fleet-take-tangas-talents-on-board/ Edited July 11 by BP1960 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Micah Richards should have decided against a loan move abroad because it wouldn't benefit Oldham. Like Joe Biden you.

deckyd Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 Anyone have any idea as to when TNT announce the TV game for opening weekend? Wanting to book flights for match but if its on TV will mess up the plans!

Boston v Rochdale or Tamworth v Sutton ahead of us I reckon. And what's with all the strange ko times? Championship all start at 12:30 League One at 17:30 surely not due to the Community Shield kicking off at 15:00? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
