£2m plus clauses I'd accept, though not be happy about losing another player before we see them develop. He may look better than Madders, but Madders had proved himself in the first team longer.
Still don't want to sell him though and shouldn't need to. As with every other transfer though, time will tell. Said that about Wilson and I think it's safe to say we didn't improve the squad, ditto Madders, so I don't hold out much hope. If it's not to help the club survive, I don't get why we are desperate to sell him (accepting/negtiating the first offer this early is desperate).
Yes he was a very good diver...I don't think he looks as good as Madders. He's a top player don't get me wrong but Madders had something special about him
Problem is that again we're selling in the January sales. Why don't we ever seem to hold on to our young talent until the summer? Give them chance to get an international call up raising their value, give them chance to get a full competitive season under their belt raising their value. For the sake of waiting a few months continually selling in January seems a very desperate ill thought out strategy that is more about desperation than getting value for the club and is inevitably going to reflect in the fee we get.
But we have made a profit?I think it's desperate times Tony. What money do you think ccfc have to fund the rest of the season without transfer sales?
The owners are not investing and the crowds are very low way below budget

We are cash flow positive.
From selling players last year, and we will need to do the same again this year. And next year, and the year after.
It's shit and I hate it but it's not difficult to understand.
It's not but why not wait until the transfer window proper when there's more chance of a bidding war raising the price, the player will have a full season under his belt raising the price and maybe just maybe have earned an international call up again raising their stock.
Thing is I also understand it.From selling players last year, and we will need to do the same again this year. And next year, and the year after.

Almost all transfer fees are undisclosed these days.The fee will be undisclosed as the Maddison fee was
I don't know why you are moaning, we should be grateful that we are getting almost 20 games out of one of our most promising youngsters in years. We are so lucky.
I'm crying with joy.
Thing is I also understand it.
But there comes a time when there is no one good enough to sell what happens then?
The Club need to get supporters back all this selling is short term blinkered buisiness, need to look at The longer term.
They are losing supporters every game so the players you sell each time need to be better and get you more money then the last one.
If nearly 10 years is short term I dread to think what period would count as long term.hopefully they're not looking at the long term because they don't intend to be here in the long term.
You might have a point if Stevenson was a flair player.Does a struggling Div 3 club need flair players like Maddison and Stevenson, or are we better off with solid journeyman.
Does a Division 3 club need to build up a squad with the better young players coming through complementing other players signed or keep selling any player that has any value whilst bringing in journeymen who will only be with us for 6 months to a year?Does a struggling Div 3 club need flair players like Maddison and Stevenson, or are we better off with solid journeyman.

99% of transfer fees are, its not just a CCFC thing.The fee will be undisclosed as the Maddison fee was
stand out a bit if they can trap a ball(!)
Shouldn't be allowed especially when you take into consideration Fisher's we have to sell to balance the books statement coupled with his " we are cash flow positive and are set to make a million pound to fit mantra.99% of transfer fees are, its not just a CCFC thing.
