I wouldnt sell them either but if say Rothwell agreed with Rangers in January that he would sign on a free transfer when his contract is up do we think he would be giving 100% the last few months of his deal here or would we be listening to the manager telling us Lenihen, Nyambe and Rothwell have been left out due to their heads not being right? Like you say we are likely to recieve peanuts if we do cash in on those 3 in January, but keeping them we aint guaranteed they will be busting a gut for us either

You are obviously referencing my post with your use if the word "privy". If you read my post in caps i said we dont know if it is ALL down to the owners, which we dont. Plenty of money was found to extend ageing and past it players.

How many improved contracts did Bennett and Evans have? Mulgrew? Smallwood?Sam Hart etc etc etc? Bradley Johnson effectively a 3 year contract. The contract situation isnt as black and white as the picture you are trying to paint.Offers have been made and unless you are privvy to the finer details of said offers how can you be so certain ALL the blame lays at the feet of the owners?

He still has 3 assists this season and has generally been playing well. He can pick a pass better than anyone in the squad and is well worth his place in the team.

Not many in our squad are capable of playing the ball he did last night for the opening goal. Not all assists but he has had 7 or 8 goal involvements so far this season.

On current form he will have the 20 before January

No you think this.He will not be going for nothing.You are obviously on the wind up and trying to scare monger as for a man so certain of something funny you wont commit to taking an easy £100 off me

I think the situations are a lot different.Chapman wasnt potentially bringing in 15+ million.Currently Brererton is our highest valued asset so i do think the club would be absolutely certain that option was in Brerertons contract before sharing it with the local paper

So the club dont know? We didnt activate Rothwells and Nyambes year until last summer.Sharpe knew about both those before activation. The £100 bet is still on the table that he wont be leaving for free this summer.

In fairness the club got that wrong.Mowbray himself thought it If we didnt have an option in Brerertons contract the club would be shitting themselves and we would be seeing his name linked with a lot more clubs

So how did Sharpe know all the other times players had year options before the club activated them? Not an assumption im going off what Sharpe has written and like i said above he was on the money all the other times.Like Rothwell and Nyambe going into this season.He had it in the paper before the club activated the year Are you going to show this evidence that Brererton was a Balaji signing?

I didnt qoute you today.You quoted my post.And you did say all those things. If i see something i disagree with on here then i give my opinion.Isnt that the point of a messageboard? I also said in my post i agree with some of your views but definitely not when it comes to young players. You drop Buckley every week and even early part last season you were on Brerertons back when he was contributing to the team. Also you comment on me quoting your posts, there was a point on here when you quoted every single post chaddy made

Sharpe will have asked the club about Brerertons contract situation. That other story that was posted no questions will have been put to the club .

I mean absolutely no disrespect to you but i just dont think you have a clue when it comes to evaluating a young players talent and potential. Off the top of my head you have said, Mount only involved with Chelsea due to his relationship with Lampard.Declan Rice not very good.Brererton a donkey and will never score goals.Armstrong wont be able to play up front on his own(12 months after you saying this you were debating any post that showed Armstrong any criticism) Young players need spells in the side to develop you think they should come in as the finished article.Buckley doesnt need to be left out every time he has a poor game like you always suggest. Plenty i agree with in some of your views, but when it comes to this i just dont think you have an eye for a player

They are trying to negotiate a new deal with him.Does it matter they havent activated it yet? Sharpe has asked the club,that link you just posted is probably some kid in his bedroom writing it If you are that confident there is no year option and you believe he will go on a free then have the bet with me.Easy £100 for you

First half no arguments.Second half i thought he was one of the players who tried to get us going. His goalscoring record is poor but not surprising to me as he doesnt look a goalscorer which is fine as he has plenty of other attributes, and in fairness he has been moved around he hasnt been playing attacking midfield all season.One of the most talented players on our books imo, and will play in the Premier league

Buckley really poor at the weekend?Nonsense, he was poor the first half as were the rest of the team.He played well in the second half

We have a years option.Accept it. He will not be leaving on a free transfer, leaving yes most likely but for a fee. You keep repeating he will leave on a free so i presume you really believe that. Il bet £100 with you that he wont leave on a free transfer?

Brererton wasnt made available until late in the window by Forest and he was being touted around to clubs On Celina he didnt name names but Mowbray said we had agreed a deal to bring in a midfielder from City only for our wage offer to be blown out the water by another championship club.Celina was the only City midfielder to move for a fee to a championship club that summer. You are right it was all very late with the deals but Mowbray spent that summer telling us money was available

So the bids for Celina and Freeman that summer added to the other players that were brought in was just my imagination? And wasnt the Rhodes deal put foward to Shebby Singh by Glen Mullan and the fans group?

Your last paragraph is simply not true.Check it back.Brereton was made available by forest they needed money brought in as they had spent big that summer.It was highly publicised at the time that Forest were touting him to other clubs and even hired an agent to get a deal done.They stated at the time they wouldnt be selling for less than 7 million. And as for Balaji wanting to show off to his mates over making profit on a young player(you mentioned Rhodes earlier).The owners did not want to sell Rhodes, i know for a fact that we turned down bigger bids than the 1 we eventually accepted and Rhodes wanted out way before we sold him. And even after we sold him we hardly made a profit considering we paid 8 million for him and been paying him 35 grand a week

The owners pay for every signing so what makes the Brererton deal different that Balajis name is being brought into it? Luke Freeman who we had multiple bids turned down for that summer was 26. Mowbray had money to spend that summer,we had multiple bids turned down for other players.Forest didnt make Brererton available until very late in rhe window, even hiring an agent to get him sold.He was offered to the club And if the club remit is to sign young domestic players with room for growth and potential profit then what is the problem with that? Surely that would be the sensible way to run our club with the income we have.

Yet Mowbray confirmed that Celina who joined Swansea for 8 million was close only for Swansea offered better wages. If the money was only for a young striker how do you explain the multiple bids for Luke Freeman at QPR that summer, a 26 year old and an attacking midfielder? If thats your opinion about Brereton then fair enough but why have you been praising Mowbray for the signing so?

Johnson had one year left on his derby contract actually. Derby thought his legs were gone so Mowbray gives the green light for a 2 + 1 year contract for him?Great decision making and management Where is your evidence Brererton was a Balaji signing?

And not every player has been signed for a profit.Isnt that the point im making with those 3 mentioned?
