littlelunchbox Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 jesus when he was at west ham, he was on a pay-as-you-play based contract. thats how dodgy his knee was perceived at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
powellnufc Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Wouldn't the release clause more likely to be a relegation release clause like at West-Ham rather then a set transfer fee?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Dunno why everyone is worried, Ba is off now and won't be back till after the window closes. No one in their right mind will try to sign a player away for a month, especially a player with a question Mark over his knee to risk a career ending injury before he even gets a chance to play. We certainly wouldn't be giving them their money back. Also if he's in Africa, he's not available for talks, or the logistics become complicated, even moreso for a medical, and the medical couldn't be a rush job not with his history. So we've got him till the end of the season, then 6 weeks later or so Harry is made England manager as england crash out of the 1st knockout stage in the euros. In that time if there is a clause I expect us to get rid of it, but in all honesty I don't think there is one. Maybe a release clause for relegation like wham but I doubt ashley would limit himself and fee after seeing what can be made from the likes of Carroll after one half a good season.

littlelunchbox Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Wouldn't the release clause more likely to be a relegation release clause like at West-Ham rather then a set transfer fee?? yes but when he was in preliminary talks with the hammers on a new contract, they were already relegated. so im guessing he would have ask for a release claused based on how much the bid would activate a release or something in the shape of , 'failed promotion, release claused activated.' some crap like that im guessing.

Dr Venkman Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 one last thing before I ignore this thread for the rest of jan why would Ashley agree to a release clause? and how exactly was Ba in a position to demand a release clause when there wasn't exactly a big que of clubs trying to grab his signature when it was free and with his dodgy knee it wasn't exactly the strongest bargaining position in history Well exactly. I said earlier (along with everyone else, like yourself) that it would have been us in the driving seat when it game to contract details. I have no doubt about that. It'll be a good contract that pleases both the player and agent...but it will not be full of special clauses that benefit the player. you all make it sound like Ba was being picked up off the fucking street man...lets not forget ashley clearly wanted a striker without paying a fee so perhaps if his deal is heavily incentivised (sp) based on how much he plays, we had to agree to a minimum clause to 'get the deal over the line'? this is exactly the point i came in here to make. we weren't doing Ba a favour by signing him, considering we desperately needed strikers it's perfectly feasible we gave him a release clause considering we signed him for free.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Ba netted twice in a 4-2 defeat away at Norwich early in December, followed by a brace at home against West Brom, and he then broke the deadlock at Bolton on Boxing Day as the Magpies won 2-0. I'm sure Ben Arfa scored first in that game. Obviously not. Fuck me for watching it on a dodgy Norwegian channel in the pub. Messing with my mind.

Dave Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The age of twitter and social networking has ensured that transfer windows are even shitter than ever before. Too many idiots given a platform. I'd be astonished if any of our players had release clauses Agreed on all counts. It would be ludicrous to us put low release clauses in considering it's something we prey on ourselves. Great news about him being named Player of the Month. Richly deserved!

Interpolic Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Everton were in for him and the fans were a bit upset when he chose us, weren't they? They'll be even more annoyed now given Ba's form and their long requirement for a good striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
