Rhodes Clauses

Likewise with the goal one, it was a 4 year contract. You‘d assume any trigger would be at least 50 goals if not more. He’s scored 12 for us so can’t see him triggering anything to do with that.

 

So I can’t see it as being relevant 

 

Didn't you see what the OP posted in his second post? It's £1million  per milestone, so he's already earned Middlesbrough an extra £12 million :Chansiri:

It's bit different to that though isn't it. He was bought when it was expected we'd go up to thr promised land and now instead we're fighting to stay in the division and in deep mire with FFP. 


So Chansiri gambled and failed. Not our fault!

Who said anything about it being our fault? 

 

The post is simply suggesting that reason he hasn't played is because we can't afford to pay his ex club any more money. 

 

It's not unusual to have caveats in a transfer that make further payments at different stages. 

If the player wins promotion with new team, previous team receives x amount

Every 10 goals scored x amount is paid

Landmark goals 50, 75, 100 activates further x payments

Landmark appearances 25, 50 etc etc activates further x payments

Your post has a couple of errors. He started the next league match following his hat trick against Forest last season. He started the next league match following his goal in the opening game this season. 

Ok 3 in 2 last season and 1 in 2 this season, glad he got dropped for the prolific windass and paterson

You are obviously a, Football Manager person like myself. 

Usually put a clause in for the maximum appearances/goals/time then sell them on before reaching it.

How do you know he's not got a 20 goal a season clause in his contract? 

 

By limiting him to 10-20 mins per match reduces the possibility of him him getting thst target. When first signed it wasn't a problem with the money being splashed around. Such is the poor foresight of our chairman, he offset the expected future outlay to be afforded from premier TV money. However, such is the financial dire straits now, he cannot afford to pay the agreed clause and therefore he isn't picked. 

 

Same with Westwood. He equalled club record clean sheets in two seasons. Clause in his contract identifying substantial bonus if acheived again. Club finances dictate he cannot be played due to costs. Manager to weak to stand up to this drops him. And Rhodes, Hutch etc. Big Bruce comes in won't stand for it and plays them regardless. He buggers off, Weak Monk comes in and drops them again. 

 

A huge benefit of (hopefully) of Tp is his character will be too strong to tow Chansiri line.

 

We shall see 

20 goals a season 🤣.

scored 3 against forest last season dropped next game, scored opening game this season dropped next game, most of his apperences are from the bench and he still has the best goals to game ratio this season

 

Not quite true. 

 

He scored first game and played in the second but he didn't score so was dropped which made no sense given the other options

Yeah that all makes sense but you don’t set the bar low for these types of add ons usually. Usually if adds on become due it’s because it’s been a success. Rhodes can’t possibly be near an add on for goals scored when he’s barely scored any for example. Likewise with appearances why would more money be due if he plays 70 odd games in 4 years. There’s 184 possible games to play during the course of his contract so you’d expect he’d need to play in way more than half, maybe even three quarters of them before anything more is due

I believe there is a clause in his contract related to appearances and goals scored. 

 

If he goes past either figure then a sum of money has to be paid to Boro and it's not peanuts. 

 

This is why Monk didn't play him. 

It might be linked to appearances it cant be linked to goals

His goals return at SWFC is paltry.

 

You believe that Boro put a clause in that if Rhodes scores and average of 6 goals a season for us we have to shell out more money. 
 

Really ?
