I understand the "want" to try and get bigger transfer fees
BUT
slapping half million transfer fees into the contract may not be to the player or his agents liking knowing that will be prohibitive to any potential move down the line, so theyll probably not sign it.
Pre-empting someone's "worth" 2 years down the line isnt easy and then when you bring into the equation that the player wants to leave,
I don't know what we got for Tomkins/Mossop/Bateman/William's but I do know it's more than what we would have got if they had just signed a standard 2/3 year deal and walked away for nothing.
What we did get will always be subjective to each person's own view of that players worth.
But I'd guess we got somehwere around700k from those sales?
I'm sure someone will tell us what we did get.
