You're an annoying cunt.
That's not sarcasm by the way.

Regardless of who put the clause in his contract, how did Reading know about it? I can't imagine wanting to sell him, maybe in the summer but not now. The player wanted out and if that's the case why do we want him here?
reading wouldnt of had to know about it as soon as they offered the 250,000 it triggered the clause. they could have offered more though |

Im imagining alarm bells and flahing lights going off in a game show jackpot win style when Reading bid 250k. |

His agent was the one who instigated the move, and Reading wasn't the only club interested.

Fitton just said if they hadn't put the clause in, Morrison wouldn't have signed. I believe Fitton 100%
So any player now will be asking the same....and he cant say no,i mean Morrison was a decent player but hardly.....oh shit he is worth ten million class. He has left it open now that when others negotiate an extension...they will want that clause. Should have let him go last year if he didn't want to re sign....my feeling is that there is more to it than it seems. |

But this way Fitton made £250k, surely its good business, no? |

Maybe, but I think Leefers point is...what happens if Cuthbert now decides he wants the same clause in his contract otherwise he wont sign.
Then say we give in and he signs and later gets sold for 250k, is that good business? no. we lose out, again.
Well, I think thats what leefers point was - it might possible set a precedent but then I'm not leefer so I could be well wide of the mark.

there have been a few cbs moving from league 1 for the championship but the fees are undisclosed so its hard to say. james chester moved from man united to hull for 300,000 who has played 12+ games in league one for carlisle but there are probably clauses like sell on percentage ect. |

If that was the point then surely Fitton can negotiate a decent price that would trigger the contract. If a player wants to go, then he will go, you cant force anyone to stay. At least maximise the compensation of losing a player that the club wants to keep.

Which (in some peoples opinion) is exactly what he hasnt done with Morrison. My personal opinion is Morrison should be worth more than 250k and we've been sold short. Not by much but when you compare it to 300k upfront for Ben Tozer who played 2 games and get sent off in one of them it seems stupid. That doesnt take into account the lack of sell on clauses (I think) |

Exactly the point. Course Morrison was going to move....how he went and for how much is what pissed me off. Plenty were happy with the deal.....would people have been happy if Charlie insisted on it? OK some were happy he went for that kind of money....the point i keep saying is that all i am not happy with is the clause....Fitton has said it wont happen....he said that before. The days of our players left for shit money should be over. They either sign the contract or fuck off in my opinion.....not hold the club to ransom. Personally i liked Morrison....whole hearted brave young player..no fancy dan off the pitch...and loads of potential...wish him well. |
