saints threaten legal action on 21:12 - Jul 5 with 2577 views | Del_Bianco | According to Adam Blackmore it's been checked out and Madrid have broken the contract terms. Also spurs offer £45k a week? He was meant to be on £75k. | |

saints threaten legal action on 21:27 - Jul 5 with 2497 views | grumpy | What's this agreement to cancel the clause and pay us 1.5 million which in that report said was done last week. What's going on ? Just seen that article that Pat put up, there could be trouble over this. [Post edited 5 Jul 2015 21:31]

saints threaten legal action on 21:40 - Jul 5 with 2435 views | patred | I believe they were legally obliged to cancel our contract BEFORE negotiating with any other club...and they failed to do that apparently, making their talks with Spurs illegal. | |

saints threaten legal action on 21:42 - Jul 5 with 2419 views | Del_Bianco | http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/southampton/11719725/Southampton A bit of clarity here. it seems we haven't actually been paid the money for the buy out we were entitled too so as far as we are concerned we have a deal in place to sign him. Unless we get that then they can't sell him. I guess a deal with spurs must have been very close if this has come out now. [Post edited 5 Jul 2015 21:43]

saints threaten legal action on 21:52 - Jul 5 with 2377 views | SaintNick | It seems that they are trying to wriggle out of it and trying to sell him to the highest bidder and we are now willing to pay too much above our agreement | |

saints threaten legal action on 21:55 - Jul 5 with 2360 views | Wints76 | But I would imagine they could still sell him to Spurs for say €15 and then get taken to court by us and fined a few million € ? | | | |
saints threaten legal action on 21:59 - Jul 5 with 2341 views | grumpy | It shouldn't be about fining it shouldn't happen at all if its not legal. | | | |
saints threaten legal action on 21:59 - Jul 5 with 2339 views | Del_Bianco | And he'd have played 50 games for spurs by the time it gets resolved. | |

saints threaten legal action on 22:01 - Jul 5 with 2331 views | Wints76 | Agreed, but..... | | | |
saints threaten legal action on 22:05 - Jul 5 with 2320 views | patred | Except that if they do sell him illegally to Spurs, FIFA, UEFA, and the FA will not ratify the deal , and he cannot play for them. We were due to speak to AM tomorrow, I don't know if that is still on now! Maybe they cancelled it after speaking to Levy, and that was the reason we threatened legal action.. | |
| |
saints threaten legal action on 22:09 - Jul 5 with 2305 views | grumpy | I understand what you are saying, Wints but if this goes through and Spurs get him, well what's the point of contracts? Just sell to the highest bidder, I'm going to watch this very carefully and how Saints deal with it. | | | |
saints threaten legal action on 22:23 - Jul 5 with 2250 views | patred | as someone said on the Spuds board...if you buy stolen goods don't expect to keep them. By not adhering to the signed agreement ...ie.. not cancelling the agreement before 1st July, Toby was our player, and not Atletico Madrids. | |
| |
saints threaten legal action on 22:54 - Jul 5 with 2161 views | Del_Bianco | It's pretty clear spurs were close to signing him, it had widely been reported it was virtually a done deal. According to Koeman the player wanted to stay but the problem was athletico, so you have to wonder what the issue is. The fee and the wages don't seem ridiculous by any means. £11.5m less the £2m we are owed means we could have got him for £9.5m. | |

saints threaten legal action on 23:12 - Jul 5 with 2082 views | 1885_SFC | I guess it'll all come down to which club Toby wants to play for - us or Spurs. Fúck him if he chooses Spurs. Barely anyone in England had even heard of him until we "rescued" him from the Atletico Madrid reserves. Sounds to me like yet another greedy footballer chasing the lure of the £££ if it turns out to be true. | |

saints threaten legal action on 23:15 - Jul 5 with 2062 views | Del_Bianco | Cortese wouldn't have stood for this, he'd have the deal done weeks ago for £4m less than the agreed price. | |

saints threaten legal action on 23:24 - Jul 5 with 2034 views | SonicBoom | Cortese would have blown spurs out the water with a thirty million bid...... | | | |
saints threaten legal action on 23:34 - Jul 5 with 2013 views | Del_Bianco | Madrid would have no choice but to sell to us as the player would have insisted on the move as he would have been impressed by Corteses vision and drive. He'd have said as much during his interview when he joined as would Koeman who would have praised the chairman for his hard work in making the deal happen. | |

saints threaten legal action on 09:11 - Jul 6 with 1786 views | BLEEDRED | Looks like Les could have played a blinder. The loan would have ended on a set date, then the buy-out clause would have had to have been completed within a set time scale. It would appear that this has not been done . The club has just sat back let AM get on with trying to sell him with out paying the buy out clause money. Then when AM reach a agreement with the Spuds and know they have the money they forward the 1.5 million to Saints. Good old Les just turns round and states sorry we have a legal contract in place to buy | | | |
saints threaten legal action on 09:15 - Jul 6 with 1781 views | dirk_doone | But, Toby wants to play for Spurs and he's already there. You don't seriously believe he'll be forced to play for us now, do you? | |
