relámpago blanco Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I thought the rule was they had to be formally offered a contract, which is equal or better than their current deal for compensation to be awarded, a la Chopra. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Formally being the key word. They don't really have a leg to stand on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 yeah that's what I thought too, just so a club couldn't offer a crazily low wage and claim compensation when it's rejected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
olliemort Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 The thing that pleases me most about this transfer is that he turned down the mackems for us,it nices to see a player to think that we are still the bigger club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be that NUFC were the only club who agreed to pay compo if Everton win their appeal, which would have severely limited Gosling’s options in the short term.

Optimistic Nut Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Or Gosling would have just waited for the result of the appeal before chosing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lagerstedt Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 How much did we get for Edgar? £300k according to BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/b/burnley/8429612.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 How much did we get for Edgar? Good question, can't remember ever hearing anything. From Clarets Mad ''How long for who knows? As far as transfer fees Edgar's value is in the region of 2m NOT 350k or so. We signed him on a free as he was out of contract, the fee of 350k wasnt a transfer fee as such it was compensation because Edgar had come up through the ranks at Newcastle and because he was under 24."

James Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Not a good move for Newcastle, Gosling or Everton. He's injured with a bad knee injury and even if he manages to come back as good as before, he'll struggle for form this season. Newcastle fans are an unforgiving bunch, and as soon as he's fit, he'll be expected to slot right into the team straight away, and when he doesn't he'll be written off as shite.

Pilko Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 The Everton appeal will make no difference, surely? It's all about a fee, not as if their appeal will get him to sign a new deal there. I do realise that Dave or someone will have already made this point btw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Im fairly pleased with this. I dont think he's good enough to start in the first team however he's only 20 and definitely one for the future. Lets just hope he's not a crock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Clearly not the case though. He was used relatively sparingly for Everton last season and I'm not sure he's any better than Guthrie or Barton at the minute, mind admittedly I haven't seen much of him but i've got a mate who supports Everton that seems to think the same.

Pilko Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Let's hope that Smith has the odd decent game when he plays in the first half of the season (hopefully not too frequently) and that Allardyce is stupid enough to buy him in January. Then Gosling can actually compete with Nolan, Guthrie and Barton (and Vuckic, or any new signings) for the central midfield spots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he isn't good enough, just we'd have to wait until 2011/2012 to actually get him in form. If we are patient. And if we are still in the top division.
