Guest Sheff Owl Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 If he plays 30 games it looks like he will get a new deal... Sounds like other players have certain clauses in their contracts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlett Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Just hearing on Radio Sheffield, GM saying he left Tommy Miller out because of a clause in his contract that he cant play more than 30 games in a season. What on earth is going on !! Is this the end for our captain ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeeeeJ Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 That is ridiculous. Who REALLY decided this? Surely there must be a valid reason behind it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcclesallOwl Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 I think it was IF he plays 30 games it triggers something in his contract... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan™ Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Guess we'll have to wait until we hear what the clause actually is. Clearly the most obvious one is a contract extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Saturday Owl Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Can't have a player that can only play 30 games a season surely, if that's true we need a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hertsowl Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) 30 games triggers some sort of change (extension, etrc, etc) which is why he didn't play today !!!

Not quite sure what the clause is but I reckon it's a new contract- Purse had the same clause and was signed around the same time as Miller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 It'll be like Purse, they signed at the same time on 2 year deals with the option of a third. We're obviously looking to move him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentwalker Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 yep sounds like it triggers an extension 1 maby option of 2. Either way that tells me Miller is on his was in the summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 I don't think he is saying he cant play 30 games, I'm guessing, as with when we signed Purse there is a clause saying after 30 games he gets an extra year, and what i would assume would be a rise in wages, and lets be honest none of these players deserve that.

Guest Sheff Owl Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Well Megson said that it beggers belief what some players have in their contracts... So i dread to think what other players have clauses for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincowl Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Purse had something similar. Seeing as they signed at the same time it would make sense. Very poor signings, considering money spent vs overall performances, both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djstatic Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) Not quite sure what the clause is but I reckon it's a new contract- Purse had the same clause and was signed around the same time as Miller Yeah same clause as Purse by the sounds of it. The person who drew up these contracts wants shooting. Both players when they signed were approaching the end of their career. Miller's last game for us was Tuesday night so. At least he went out on a high. Edited April 9, 2011 by djstatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Bach Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Megson needs to know when to keep his mouth shut. Deflecting criticism maybe? Probably. Megsons first responsibility is to the players and it seems he is doing his best to wee wee most of them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
