looks like we put one in, and it looks as though he's off to Plymouth for £300k

thank you very much!

Well done Iffy Onuora... Hopefully it'll come into fruition.

[Frigby Daser]

hate to say it, but it's more down to someone else. Iffy ddn't want to sell, it was taken out of his hands.

Whether it's a point of credit for our Greek friend or not is debatable - sell-ons are hardly rocket science pretty much standard in any transfer now. Can't believe there's not better out there for £300k, but he does do a certain job that a lot can't.

aren't sell on clauses usually linked to profit?  Didn't Mark D post some details about the deal on here not to long ago?

Well, whoever it is... As long as it's a good percentage... Kudos for once.

I always thought that too.

2/3 of the way down

That's what I remember, back in the day when Joey B look like leaving Oxford we stood to make a nice chunk of all profit, which was actually gonne be good cos we sold for about £50K.  If fallon leaves for what he was sold at we miss out, and also loose any potential windfalls tied to promotion etc.

[Fred Elliot]

Oh come on, In his own admission this was one of Mike D transfers (the best in the league IIRC)

The man is a god !  

[pauld]

It will almost certainly have been Mike D who negotiated the sell-on and credit where its due to him for that. What isn't clear is whether any sell-on would be as a %age of profit, which is the usual thing. If so, we get nowt from a 300k fee, but we'll see, eh?

[Summerof69]

It's normally a % of any PROFIT only....so we've made bugger all.

[pauld]

Well, normally yes. But it may not be in this case - let's wait and see before jumping to conclusions

[kevjoycreed]

To be fair though we made plenty of pound notes when we sold him in the first place. £350k for a one trick striker who had only performed for half a season, not bad business, if we dont get anything from the sell on so what.

[mattboyslim]

Add to that Kev that he had only 6 motnhs left.  Compared to the Parkin deal we did really well on him (even if it may have contributed to relegation)

(even if it may have contributed to relegation)

best thing to have happened to us in years!
