End of the day he wanted that clause in his contract, and i think he's the one going to suffer for it.
He was starting to get first team action, now he'll just sit in the reserve for a few seasons with his career not going anyway. We have got £250k because of his idiocy at not signing a contract without the clause. In hindsight he will probably see his mistake too - I doubt he thought he would get any games when he signed the contract seeing as Greer was probably still around.
P.S Leefer: you need your head checking. If we didn't sell now we would have had another Paynter fiasco on our hands. Letting him go now means a) we get money for him (who cares if its above or below any nutters valuation on here - he'd be gone for a free in the summer anyway), and b) we now have more time to rebuild for next season - cause let's face it this ones dead.
Agreed......delete this thread.

My personal opinion is we could of got more money for him BUT we need to remember we have got money for him which we wouldn't have got if we hadn't of agreed to the clause in the first place. We did refuse it at first so he refused to even sign the contract so i suppose a compromise had to be reached i just wish the fee had been agreed a bit higher.
I know some are happy with the fee and that just boils down to opinion and mine is that he is more valuable than Tozer or Henshall and other young players we have sold for more than 250k
The Tozer transfer always was a complete joke. Daylight robbery of Newcastle, that maybe helped keep the club alive.

Its rested.....i thought Obrien was mediocre by the way.....and only played an hour.
but involved in two of our goals Well Leefer, if you are going to take the side of a soccer pundit on Sky Sports that used to be on Blue fucking Peter FFS then I will retreat from this discussion now as obviously you will soon be taking the views of Deliah Smith seriously

It's not all about money - We got a really good relationship with City because of the Henshall deal...

He sat on the bench most of last year, hasn't had a great run out this year and was loaned out to league two, I think that says it all. Bye bye, ker-ching!
Potential maybe, but we aren't going to stay up on potential.

whatever it was, it was too much.
I expect the fee was 'undisclosed'
