    Was just about to say the same. Still good job we'll be coining in an extra 500k from the promotion clause that Don will surely have insisted on as part of the deal.

    Was just going to say something about that.

    No doubt in my mind that there's no promotion clause. Fu.king *****.

    I'm as big a critic of Don Rowing as anyone, but let's not jump to conclusions just yet.

    Gally, any chance we can ask this question directly to the club and get an official response? In the event that there was something in there then it might paint a different picture on the Vaz Te sale. Based on what we know so far it looks shocking, but if the final fee ended up being around £1m because of a promotion clause then it might have been a price worth paying for almost being relegated.

    Really? If we had gone down we would be £3 million down on income straightaway.

    Furthermore, the impact of the awaful form of the second half of the season will still be being felt when it comes to season ticket renewal numbers.

    Fair do's we don't know yet if there was a clause or not.

    If there is a clause (which I'm in no doubt there should be) then its alright business. If not, then it's *****.

    Would be good to get an official response to this.

    If we do get extra for them being promoted then I still believe the board needs sacking for such piss poor PR in keeping it quiet. If fans are complaining that we haven't got enough money and we have actually potentially got a lot more than the fans think then any board that doesnt point the clause out needs sacking.

    That said I don't think there's a cat in hells chance that we put a clause in there, our board are *****.

    I think that if there were a clause they would have said at the point of sale, as it's a crucial piece of information.

    Not when they don't officially disclose anything. The only reason we know it was £500k was from Big Sam's interview.

    All we got from DR at the time was that they were "very happy" with the fee.

    And all we got from our manager was that the fee was disgusting and that the board had let him down

    Which is why I have much more sympathy for him than many on this board.

    1) He was honest enough to say it, at the risk of his job.
    2) It's hard to deliver, when your employers pull the rug from under you.

    £500k in, £90m out.

    That's how you do it, Donald.
