Add helping get Sule signed and getting Strain to sign a contract extension and I will be very happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac28 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) Im surprised Sule hasnt signed yet. There was a lot of buzz about him wanting to come to Paisley but its all went quiet, must be looking for more money edit - transfermarkt says his contract expires on the 30th. Maybe will hear something then Edited June 24, 2023 by Mac28 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderlust Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 47 minutes ago, DumbartonBud said: We sold him to Hibs with a sell on clause as they couldn’t / wouldn’t pay the development fee due as he was still young and out of contract, a costly mistake by them. They then sold him to Villa, again with a sell on clause and also triggers that increased the fee, such as a bonus for getting out the championship. So any additional fees Hibs get a percentage flows through to us. In addition in common with all clubs that have helped develop a young player we receive a solidarity payment whenever a player is transferred. John was with us from about the age of six so that payment could end up being substantial but that isn’t related to our deal with Hibs. Cheers - and thanks to DJC too. I'd assumed it was just the first sell-on that paid out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with any type of contract, it really depends on the actual wording but in our instance the agreement between us and Hibs appears to allow the flow through of future payment that Hibs get. There is no guarantee that other similar agreements between different clubs will be worded this way. Whether by accident or design we have done well out of our agreement, so well, that every transfer window there is almost as much speculation within our support about McGinn moving as there is about our own players! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It mean we would be all set with left footed defenders (with Taylor able to apparently cover left back too), which are like gold dust (I keep telling my son to focus on the weak foot as the left is so tough to get people). If it meant a Uturn for main like Dunne I'd be happy as I think next season he could push of for us even more. The winger would also allow us to have goal scorer winger and a plan B for 3 up front. The 275k banding about upsets me as I personally feel Baccus is worth more. If it was closer to 400k or 500k with add-on's with 1 year left I'd be more happy. As I say of Baccus, Strain and O'Hara he is the one I feel we could find someone else to take his place easier. There is absolutely no evidence that he is being sold for 275k. None whatsoever. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Sensible Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 If stories about Baccus to Bolton are true it’s a great piece of business from the club to get such a big fee We only signed him a year ago, for nothing, he’s only got a year left of on contract. He’s already 25 and only has a year left on his contract. He doesn’t score or directly create many goals. He’s a good player but to get a big fee for a player like this is superb. Lex Richardson spent the best part of his career at Love Street and effectively left for nothing. So did Billy Abercromby. Billy Stark left for peanuts, as did Paul Lambert. A long time ago I know, I’m stuck in the past. But I’m kinda comparing Baccus to them and although he’s good, he’s not in the same league as these guys. So if we get £275k plus add ons then that is impressive 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d hope this 275k figure is not true and we might be looking at higher than this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing to suggest we've leat him go for that and the deal once all is said and done will be relatively lucrative for the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kempes Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Be sad to see Baccus go, but good luck to him. He has been a real asset to the club, on and off the pitch, in his short time in Paisley. Whilst we had problems dealing with the previous regime at Bolton, their fans had nothing to do with that. Good club, good fans, good stadium…we might even arrange a friendly down there. We move on though, next… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be looking rather more stupid than usual now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTOF Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Quote Talks with Bolton have been on-going for several days and have seen the League One side significantly up their bid. If you choose to believe the [poorly] reported figure, then the starting bid must have been about 100 quid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Cummings is a full international who played at the World Cup Alex Gogic, Trevor Carson, Declan Gallagher, Eamon Brophy and Tony Watt are full internationals.
