Hookowl Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 11 minutes ago, The Captain said: Its just a recent example though, there are hundreds of others I could have given instead. The point is that if SC continues to give high quality performances, of course he is going to attract tempting offers from clubs higher up the league pyramid than ourselves. I don’t get why fans are falling over themselves to dismiss this story as ‘agent’s work’. Is it because they don’t want to hear it? I think it's mainly because agents seem to be far more concerned with how much money they can get rather than benefits for the player they represent.

I fully agree. Doesn’t mean that there is no truth in this story. Clare was fantastic against Derby and Villa. He’s still very young. And because he isn’t contracted to us beyond this summer, clubs can sign him for a pittance. Why wouldn’t those clubs want to sign SC? 18 minutes ago, Watson said: You make football management sound so easy I thought the post you quoted by @room0035 made a lot of sense and raised some valid points. Nowt wrong with constructive criticism. Let’s face it, it’s not like the club haven’t made any mistakes these last three years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowl Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 As a young player do you go to a top Premiership team on lots of money and risk getting lost in the crowd of other young hopefuls or do you go to/stay at a club on less money but get regular games to really learn your trade?

RUMBELOWS91 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I think I'm right in saying tribunals take into account the value of contract offered by both parties. Could well be a ploy by the agent to encourage the club to up the offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash77 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Left it too late so best we can hope for is paying affordably over odds Clare and agents have the power now so he could easily fulfil his massive potential elsewhere like george sadly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 He's already liking tweets on twitter linking him to Spurs. I mean I get the impression he doesn't want to stay here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbster Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I would have thought being our player as it stands we are in the driving seat for him to re sign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesnt read that well in that I would choose Reach first, then Clare for two of the midfield starting places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You work those contacts boy. Precisely. This is straight from the agents' playbook. Likely baseless rumours for extra leverage during contract renewal talks.

malek Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 As I said in another thread, if we loose him we can blame only ourselves. Thats what you end up by offering sh1tty one year deals to your best prospects. Should have known how good he is long before now, and had him tied on long term deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must be in quite a strong bargaining position now. Especially if there is any truth in the rumours that he is attracting interest from other clubs.

That is likely true, but last season it was club that were in strong bargaining position, and in my opinion messes it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have known how good he is long before now, and had him tied on long term deal. Depends what you mean by long term deal, don't forget he was an academy prospect until he played championship football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
