Swap

John Bostock.

Made five appearances for Palace, aged 15, two of which he started (I think). He also played for England under-16's and under-17's, and captained the England under-17 side.

"Tottenham and Crystal Palace entered negotiations over the transfer fee, but agreement could not be reached, leading to the sum being decided at a tribunal. On 9 July the tribunal declared that Tottenham would pay £700,000 for Bostock, with add-on payments of up to £1.25m dependent on appearances and a further £200,000 should he make his full international debut. A sell-on clause entitles Crystal Palace to 15% of any profit Tottenham makes from any future sale of Bostock's contract."

So why do folk think we'll get easily over a million for Reuben?

 

Whats RNL's international honours?

I would suggest the captain of the England U17's side is deemed to be worth much more than RNL.

 

Never played for them as far as I know. nt

 

The actual swap is RNL to Man U inexchange for a load of underpants! nt

 

RE: Can someone explain....

I don't think he's signed professional terms yet so he can go anywhere but we would be due compensation.

 

I've not laughed so hard since...

Akinfenwank skied that penalty

 

Thanks for that. nt
