Elliottman Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Sick of this. The way they're looking at demanding we give up one of our best assets is laughable. Mike and Derek should have laughed them out of the meeting ages ago There's no way they let him walk for free. No way. If he leaves it will be on our terms. We know these lot well enough to know they arent just going to let him walk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brazilianbob Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 If he has to go then we should simply retain his playing registration if San Lorenzo cant pay a decent fee for him. Something else that doesn't add up is that he funds an orphanage back in Argentina doesnt he? How is he going to keep funding that if he loses the wages we are paying him. Maybe he is getting stuffed with tax by the UK because he is sending money abroad and needs to get out of the country before he has to stump up a hefty amount to the taman, or maybe San Lorenzo said they will fund it ad infinitum if he plays for them? Perhaps that is his reason for wanting to join them. If he was disillusioned with football surely he would just retire. I think its clear he wants to keep playing so there has to be an underlying reason. The Talksport S American ITK said there was no question of his wife being ill when San Lorenzo first indicated he wanted to go home to Argentina and play for them, that was only mentioned when it transpired that he had just signed a four year contract and wouldnt be able to buy himself out of his contract, without the permission of NUFC, until there were only two years left to run, a la Jonas at Real Mallorca.

Skirge Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I don't get what there is to discuss, surely we would be reluctant to let him go even for a fee unless it was a really good offer. He needs to fkn man up and get on with his job, the one we pay him to do, the one we pay him VERY well to do. The club want the fans to show him love keep him, well its getting harder and harder to do that the longer this drags on without us knowing the facts, hard to sympathize with him when we have no idea why he is so desperate to leave.

I know we would be paying him but we cannot be put through this by any player let alone our club Captain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Can see these dicks leaving the negotiation table with Colo having got what they came for then turning and saying "Any chance you could get your PM to give us the Falklands too?" Honestly don't understand what appears to be them thinking they have a right to just take him and us to be completely fine with that. Osvaldo is a fucking arsehole as well.

The College Dropout Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 His contract is worth more than his transfer fee. If he's on 50k p/w that's 2.5m a year. 3 years left, 7.5m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TCD23 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 This just seems insane to me. San Lorenzo and Colo' think that they have all the bargaining chips by.... not offering us any money or any kind of financial incentive and setting a deadline for us to accept their offer to let our Captain go. It's the equivilant of Luxembourg demanding China submit to all their demands or prepare to be ahinallated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on 60k a week now. So that was the conditions of the new 5 year contract last year? If so, not bad by Ashley like... This is a case of player power. The alternative is that he stays and is forced into the reserves. We all lose out. Least this way we recoup the wages (I know we lose out on a fee but we know Ashley wouldnt snub a chance to save some cash...). I think he will stay til end of the season. Hopefully the fans stay behind him and give him a send off (unless his "personal issue" is more along the lines of the "rumours" rather than the illness story) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Release him from his contract. Hold his registration. If he's that desperate to play football then San Lorenzo can cough up a fee. Otherwise I'm sure there's some five a side nets somewhere in Argentina. Either the family issues are true and it's not about the football. Or it's purely about wanting to ditch us for his hometown and his daddy and he can get absolutely and royally fucked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sugoinufc Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 What annoys me the most is that his dad and club - in the quotes i have read - always speaks about how nice it would be for them to work together. Its never about colos wife being sick. WTF, i know her sickness shouldn´t be "that" public, but maybe everybody was more understanding when we knew what it was all about. colo should (as our captain - in hard times) tell us what is going on imo. I believe his wife is sick and it is truely sad...but it easy to be suspicious about her condition and if it is used as a strategy to make a move easier...
