Interesting comment Mowbray made about his new owners 

“ But I feel as if there is a plan from the owners. They are not saying ‘Sunderlandhave to win the league this year’. They want to grow this club incrementally, they don’t want to spend £100 million this summer. Put talent and quality into your club and let it grow.“

Looks like another journey then?  No pressure to get promoted. Luvly.  

Blimey, buying himself time already.

agents fees are paid for by the buying club - forest have a small cut of any profit - whilst Rovers will only pay up his loyalty bonus !

So if the loyalty bonus allegedly replaced the signing on fee then it could still be a hefty chunk of his deal, 10% = 700k

Agents work on a two way basis sometimes so it depends if anyone at Ewood has been actively trying to sell on behalf of the club.

Forest if the fee is say 10 mill get a % of the 3 million, with seven already having been paid and all the rest thrown in like i said it seems pointless selling.   How much of the money would actually get reinvested unless it came in one lump payment - again unlikey.

Keep him

And if i was him i'd wait till summer or even sign a new deal with a clause he really could be a 25 million player with better clubs after him by then.

Hearing Rovers have now ended talks with a prospective player who was lined up to replace BBD. 

No idea who the player is, but now we’d better hope nobody comes in for him with an offer which meets the valuation. 

Dembele probably

That's why they hired him.

He'll do what it says on the tin for a couple of years but any no wins in ten runs he'll be gone make no mistake. Makems WILL have his head on a stick not just sit in silence and moan on the interweb.

Yes man extraordinaire.

It will be disappointing if Dembele  - or similar - now don’t come given the early day hype. I can’t remember us pulling off many - if any - very late deadline day deals recently, so would assume we’re done unless a name pops up in the next hour or so.

Seems we’re done. Maybe we can convince BBD to sign a contract, though I have no idea why he would. Set to make much more as a free in the summer. Yet another player leaving for free.

At the risk of bringing out the tooth puns again, I think you better brace yourself for that particular outcome.   If we don't sell today that's that I would say - he can sign a pre-contract in Jan as  far as I can understand.  But, only with overseas teams?   So if he does want to play PL, we might still have a chance...

I worry… I worried about Nyambe, Lenihan, & Rothwell, too. 

I won’t bother to read back over 700 pages of this thread, but somebody told me not to worry, we wouldn’t lose him on a free.

yeah. Right. Stuff that doesn’t happen at responsible clubs, seems to happen at ours all the time.
