What did the club buy him for Dave? Seems very decent business to me, if that figure is true.

Edit - seen Antti's post - £300,000.

think it was 300 or 400k, probably been our best signing for years. Good Luck to him

Four? For this gourd? Four?! Look at it. It's worth ten if it's worth a shekel.

Anyone know what is owed to Stevenage and Bristol City from the fee- read in their local presses that they can each expect a 10% cut 🧐

well it is their job to make the guess sound factual, seems to have worked


Sure but if you were making it up you'd probably choose a higher figure. Even when WLS reported £4m rejected they stuck to £3m.

Unless they do troll figures to whip up a scandal, but I think they've probably bigger fish to fry than us.

Anyway WLS now confirming it's happening but no new word on fee.

So clubs don't know how much we have to spend and drive prices up, if they know we sold someone for 10 million the price os his replacement would be more


Just watching SSN now and they just said fee was 5million plus add ons


Do you really think we will actually be in position to buy anyone???? I don't , I reckon all the money from Freeman and Mass sales will go toward FFP , so the undisclosed business becomes obsolete. Any way I thought the club was always transparent with the fans.

Would find it hard to believe we owe Bristol City much, if anything at all, as Freeman's contract was almost up and they had no bargaining power.

I'd find it harder still to believe that we owe Stevenage anything as we had no contractual dealings with them.

Sheffield fans all seem to be reporting the 5m figure.

The side we have had now for about 2-3 years is being broken up isn't it. Going to be an interesting one next season as we are going to look very different.

When was the last time we got top money for one out players ?? Got to have been Les
Years of mismanagement and being in the crap have now allowed our players to be picked up for peanuts , 3 million plus add ons is Sh1t , a bit like those smithies add ons last year as well
3 million doesn’t get you half a Gary Madine FFS


Samba 12 million 😇😇😇

When they are transparent such as saying players will be sold the get slaughtered.
The club accounts for this year will show how much he went for so won't be secret forever

I do think we'll spend, we already have with 5 players in so far and more will come

£5m could still be £3m with add ons... :)

Oh well. It's a good move for him at a now or never stage of his career. Even if there had been a Championship bidding war the Prem side's always going to win in this scenario. Not sure why Norwich, Burnley, Villa weren't interested at that price.

So Bristol City to receive 15% of the profits and Stevenage 10% of the fee according to these sources. I have no idea about the veracity of either but wondering if anyone's seen any different figures reported? Maybe the Stevenage cut comes out of the Bristol City one as it's odd they're getting stuff from use when we never dealt with them.

Fair play to Freeman. He's been outstanding for us.

£5m(ish) will go some way towards offsetting the persistent piss-boiling gob bummery that is FFP. If we can get a decent fee for Smith the Elder, that would also be nice.

Stevenage will only get a percentage of the percentage that goes to Bristol City.

So if Bristol City have a 15% clause and stevenage a 10% with Bristol City

Then Bristol City will get 13.5% and Stevenage 1.5%

Well mate we have to agree to disagree on this one as I think we won't spend any money on new signing s from the Freeman and Mass deals, thanks to FFP and the general mismanagement of our club in the past.

Who do you think is leaking him this information? Its clearly someone from the club. That person can either be (a) telling the truth or (b) misleading the journo to control the negative PR

personally, i'm pretty confident qpr will have agreed a reasonable fee. otherwise, there would be no reason to sell him this early. we still have a few more months for his price to go up

yes, but also would mean our targets ight go elsewhere. More likely they matched our valuation (or close to it), and we took it so we could move on and get business done quickly.
We almost sound professional.
This is what should have been happening last summer.

Bare bones.

It could also mean that SU was the only offer on the table, so no bidding war.
What I am happy about is the club seem to be doing business early (Ins and outs) for once instead of waiting until the last minute to see what's left.
