The other money is loyalty bonuses, as confirmed by finance expert here i8 There will probably be 32 days in May before we are promoted. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OxOwl Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Dint sound like a throw away. He stated that there's an article in the Yorkshire pudding post on Monday. Just guess will have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclovin Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Players are injured and they have also been unfit this season, I think it’s fair to say they have gone hand in hand and we will hopefully see a different scenario next season when we have a manager who will prepare us better fitness wise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 There seems to be a genuine fear and panic, that there is some truth to the persistent rumours that certain players have not been playing in order to avoid triggering loyalty bonus payments. Not sure why if there is no foundation at all. Not even sure where the rumours originated from. No idea why Hutch says he's fit. No idea why Westy has been called up by Ireland. No idea what's wrong with Hooper. No idea why someone would predict a YP story on Monday. Everything is fine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on here and it has created a chuffing meltdown. Crackers. I know, now we have people saying why would he mention the Yorkshire post. Yes because that makes it a more viable, it got to be true. Eh? Look if it's real, then yes, go nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reasons being banded about. Over this being true, based on a throw away comment made on a no mark radio show. Are staggering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wednesday Wookie Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Why wouldn’t we have off loaded these players on loan or a full transfer during the transfer window if we didn’t want to give them appearance related bonuses? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owling Wolfe Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 With the amount of injury time he has had I cant imagine Fletcher being due an appearance bonus just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morepork Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 (edited) I've listened to it a couple of times, he's an emotional lad but Wednesday can do that to people. I don't think he's mental but it did sound like he was just repeating what someone had told him at the match. It'll all come out in the wash tomorrow. If there was even a glimmer of truth in this then the steering group meeting yesterday was the perfect opportunity for the club to get in front of the story, that didn't happen. I don't see how a club, especially one run as ours has been could even hope to keep a lid on something like this. Likewise, I believe the players and especially their agents would be more vocal about it. I know people say there's no smoke without fire, sometimes true but more often not. However even if we assume that to be the case here, couldn't the sauce of this be the fact that amongst the injured there are individuals we no longer want and are avoiding payouts for one thing or another, there is nothing untoward about that. I personally choose not to believe the stories until I'm presented with facts to the contrary and I tell myself that if we could not make a cake, we can't pull off the football equivalent of the moon landings.....they were a hoax, right?

If the answer to avoid the payment is as easy as not to not play that particular player, then the player isn’t saving anything by staying. Plus a loan wouldn’t have removed the clause would it?

Handed in a transfer request just after CC left and was told he wouldn't play for us again by you know who. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
