BARNSLEY hotshot Craig Davies, 26, is set for talks with Bolton after a £750,000 buy-out clause was activated.
At the times when they signed their respective contracts, yes. If the 750k release clause is true, then it would be a good return for a player who cost us nothing and has just about earned his wages. If he can attract another suitor before the end of January, it may well start a bidding war to take it over 1m. This would mean him turning out for us for a few more games, which might just as likely turn everybody off. I would ask Bolton for 1m immediately, which they may go for in order to keep off any competition. Then we can all sit around and have a good laugh, before picking up the phone to Adam Hammill.

300k is what I heard was the release clause, but was shot down saying that the Don had said no release clauses in any contracts
Don tells people what he thinks they want to hear, the meetings are no more than a fobbing off session, waste of time. At least people get a free beer out of it.
