I've just spoken to the 'Brentford Gazette' (made that paper name up - can't actually remember what they were called!). Doing a piece on Ethan Pinnock's rise from Dulwich Hamlets to Brentford/Premier League star. Got me thinking. Do the accounts show anything in terms of us receiving a bonus payment because they made the Premier League? I always assumed that the poultry £3m we received, similar to John Stones, would have included add ons such as another seven figures should Brentford get promoted and he play in x amount of games. Likely one for @Sheriff, @Archerfield or @Red Rain
Brentford’s last accounts show a contingent liability of £25m payable based on player appearances/performances. Hopefully a big chunk of that is for Ethan Pinnock! (Even a small chunk would be good!)
