but surely offering him a new deal and getting a fee is more cash than your idea?
which four or five out of contract ones do ou think good enough for champo?
onien thing is automatic..it just happens as its al;ready agreed surely..the club can at any time between now and june tell him he has another year..there isnt negiotation..
If thats the case, which i doubt, why not just do it? If it was automatic there would be no point in the clause. Just agree the extra year initially.
Serious question to you then. The alternative, let all these players run out of contract. In addition to these players, you suggest jettisoning a number of others who you say you arent bothered about keeping. How do you see that panning out in terms of the number of players we need to sign and the transfer budget available? Also considering our transfer record under SD, what do you anticipate our "hit rate" being?
The above all being based on us being promoted.
