Jack Clarke

[Geppetto]

Take away the shirt sale losses and we're actually -£9m

And the pink slices didn't pay for themselves.

 

[nelford_safc]

No. Can somebody please post the link from any of the more reliable sources online that has confirmed that JC has indeed left?

A bid has been accepted man. He’s obviously going.

 

[Freddie the Greek]

It’s true, we have accepted the offer this evening. £17m plus extra if they stay up.

He’s talking it over with the family, Harte pushing the move, it’s not definite yet

Harte is a f***ing fat tit

 

[SAFCOldie]

Summerville went for £20m plus add ons and was the PFA player of the championship. Completely gutted Clarke has gone, but they’ve been listening to offer all summer and this was the most we could get. I’m guessing he was offered a new contract that he didn’t want to sign so rock and hard place…

That's the thing, if you don't get a bidding war going on then there is only so far you can take it without messing up other transfers in the pipeline. For me I knew he'd be off at some point so I take encouragement from Ballard, Jobe and Rigg extending their contracts as some sort of counter balance.

 

[burro nunn]

f***ing sick, new it was coming but still.

 

[SuperKevsLeftBoot]

Only Neil to go now

Wouldn’t be half as fussed if it was Neil.

 

[Roadhouse]

I've just started crying.

 

[Julio Mackemo]

We’ll get the same shite we did with Stewart.

We offered a contract and he wasn’t willing to sign and all that shite.

What if it’s true. ? Next season we’d get half that amount, assume that is what they are thinking.

 

[MadMackem7]

If the fee is £15m plus add ons. Spurs are taking 40%x £15m so we would only get £9m. I would assume that Spurs could also be entitled to 40% x £5m add ons, which we possibly won’t even see if they are all or even part based upon Ipswich staying up

Sell on has never been 40%

 

[Davo2428]

I wondered if he rejected a new contract

was never offered one

 

[coyneeee_s]

Nah. Harte's been sniffing about the AoL all pre-season like an unwanted rodent, he's definitely done a done verbally behind closed doors and turned Jack's head to submit a transfer request

 

[Lonz]

Ah gerrin, I was wondering how long it would take for the 'We're a one trick pony under Clarke, we'll play better football without him' posts, same was said when Bent left.

The lad pulled us out of the shit so many times last season. Our two biggest goal threats gone in the space of about a year, and not a single player in to make up the difference.

 

[Rokerparkpies]

The way they spent the Stewart lottery win money leads me to believe it will be pissed straight up the wall pretty quick.

New PA system is good though

 

[Lonz]

New PA system is good though

I barely noticed a difference tbh.

 

[chopsfc007]

Just started to piss it down in SR6. A sign from the heavens.

And I haven't let the dog out yet ffs

 

[Dredd]

Doesn't that make it worse?

Well it's better than having scooter belting out WHAT IS THE QUESTION

 

[nelford_safc]

Mate no offence but pack it in. You might have a source you might not. He’s going. Don’t build peoples hopes up.

 

[scotch]

Bigger question is why half a dozen other premier league teams aren't bidding for Clarke at that price, absolute steal.

 

[Drexl]

You think we didn’t offer him a new contract when every other decent player was? I am guessing, but what do you reckon out of interest?

I’ve got no idea. Like everyone.

I’m not going to absolve the club of blame though by saying he “probably” turned down a new contract.

 

[Rokerparkpies]

Eh???
