Clarke, Ballard etc

[Montys revenge]

We don't have to sell Clarke or Ballard. Why not pay them a bit more and keep them both for promotion next season

 

[SAFC11]

Do no we know what percentage it actually is?

Rumoured at 30-40%

 

[Coeus]

With a snap of their fingers, yea.

Because its not just a bit more they will be worth if prem sides want them.

Fuckin hefty that like, if we got 15 for him we’d pocket 7 still which isn’t too bad but we’re likely to get 10 for him and a return of 4 mil isn’t great

 

[FulwellViaLeeds]

I'd be surprised if Ballard goes tbh. Good Championship defender, but tends to struggle against anyone with athleticism who can run him, which he'd be up against regularly in the PL. Prone to a gaffe as well.

Ballard isn't ready for the prem and Clarke probably would end up at a lower half/ relegation side

 

[LewisLad]

Pretty sure Clarke wasn't keen on London life when he left Spurs and big reason he came here was because its close to home. That could rule loads of clubs out.

You could be right but he's a bit older / more experienced now and above all else, money talks

We would never have got him in the first place without it is probably the best way to look at it

 

[Mattyrobinson]

Be interesting to see what happens with Clarke, Ballard, Neil, Hume, Patto. All allegedly have prem interest.

 

[MustardAndOnions]

Ballard wont get a prem move, can see him leaving to join a relegated team with the parachute payments. Clarke will go abroad.

Ballard isn’t ready yet for me

He’s one of our best players for sure but he can still be all or nothing at times.

 

[Coeus]

Fair enough, doesn't change my point, it's a not bit more if a prem side wants them.

Clarke will leave

I think the big question is will anyone else

I don’t think Ballard will

I think Neil and Patto are the danger ones

 

[PitYacker]

It depends on what model they follow, and which fans view the accounts on companies house.

It’s one way of looking at it, there’s probably 2 or 3 ways you could look at it though…..

I don’t think Ballard will

I think Neil and Patto are the danger ones

the only two with 2 years left on their contracts are Clarke & Neil unless the club as year option on their contracts i can see them both being sold

You're probably right about Clarke, I don't think anyone else will leave

I honestly not sure Clarke makes much of an impact in a bottom half premier league side.

 

[MustardAndOnions]

You're probably right about Clarke, I don't think anyone else will leave

Hope you’re right It’s possible yeah

the only two with 2 years left on their contracts are Clarke & Neil unless the club as year option on their contracts i can see them both being sold

Didn’t know that about Neil. That’s a worry yes

The lads quality, he’s the type of player who will get even better playing with better players

Will be gutted when he does leave.

 

[hank williams]

Hope you’re right It’s possible yeah

Any thing is possible doesn’t mean it will happen though

 

[MustardAndOnions]

Brentford will presumably have some Toney money burning a hole.

There'll be others too.

As will Everton when Brasnthwaite heads to Old Trafford
