Backroom DE. Posted January 22, 2018 Backroom Posted January 22, 2018 His contract only had a year left which undoubtedly played a big part in his fee being smaller. For a club like Gillingham there's a huge difference between £750k and £0. Obviously for us it's just a drop in the black ocean of debt accumulated.

JimEdd Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Tomphil, I never said Dack was unhappy, please do not mis-quote me. In fact, just the opposite, I think Dack is very happy. It was just a scenario put forward that may make him, or his Agent, consider a move. Sorry I'm a new member, but I think at the moment Rovers have the happiest squad they've had for several years, so not trotting out anything about unhappy players 46 minutes ago, tomphil said: We've already had a newbie signing up and trotting out the 'unhappy player line' you know the patterns previously set here

sparky12 Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Surely it wouldn't make sense for either Dack or Rovers for him to go anywhere, the furthest he is going to go in this window is the Championship, If our form continues then he will be there next season regardless, God forbid we don't win promotion and he wants to move on then at least he can use this second half of the season to boost his stock and maybe get a bigger move elsewhere.

So they werent a bid from Cardiff for him. Just seems more media bulls**t again. Like Dack recently he very happy here and want to stay
islander200 Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Once/if promotion is secured I'd say we will find out soon enough what their intentions are regarding Dack.If he is staying put I'd expect him to be given a new deal with improved terms which he will have earned

Tormund Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 No need for him to move this window, only way he will leave is if we don’t go up in the summer.

But am I right in thinking that we improved Phil Jones' contract, but the get out clause forced us to sell"cheap"? Had we not given him a new one, would the old one still have been in place, allowing us to hold out for more money? I am not sure that it was about to expire, as he had only recently broken into the team. Can anyone else shed light on this? It has always rankled with me...

I'm not 100% but I think Jones deal with the sell out clause was done before the Venkys arrived.As I remember it was said the venkys where confused as to why they couldn't get more money in the transfer fee for him

It refers to the get out clause being inserted the previous February,- a few months after the Venky/Agent takeover, ... "However, they (Rovers) were forced to accept that the clause — inserted into Jones’s contract in February — had been ratified by their own executives and could not be challenged"

I think we had United's pants down at that price with the benefit of hindsight. Allegedly, according to Anderson, Jones' original contract permitted him to walk out very cheap and he renegotiated his deal that window Anderson was here with the buy out clause allowing us to get (imo) a very respectable 17m for him. If true it's one thing he did which was of benefit to us.

"According to Anderson" Hahaha Whether 17m for him was cheap is a matter of opinion. What is quite clear that if his pre Venkys deal hadn't been renegotiated we'd have lost him for relative peanuts based on the value of his original contract. Not quite a Mahoney scenario but not far off.

If true it's one thing he did which was of benefit to us. What did we spend the 17 m on, I can't recall. When planning to sell it's useful to know at what price as it's easy to plan ahead - how much for the Agent, stuff like that.
