What suggests we could have afforded to loan him at the time?

I guess we couldn’t afford to loan him as he had a £20m release clause. Silly me

That wasn’t what I said though. I am not in the mood to answer to a twat like you anymore, you are just making stuff up. Go and play on the M6

What’s your problem? Another poster said didn’t someone say he was worth £20m I said it was you and @PVA which you’ve admitted it was. Get over it

There have been some very questionable financial transactions from their owner lately.

Dike had a release clause of £20m, WBA actually paid around £7.5m up front to sign him plus add ons.

I also believe this isn’t true. The release clause was 20m dollars as far as I’m aware. Not that it has any relevance to the discussion at the time

I Never Said he was worth 20 million. I have been off this forum all week as got a lot of stuff happening personally and only looked because I was tagged and surprise surprise it was you acting like a c**t. I don’t need this at the moment, I haven’t got the energy to put up with your inane childish bollocks. So please leave me alone now

So is there a difference between a player's release clause and their value or not? You're just arguing against yourself here, it's really weird, not to mention incredibly pathetic.

So why does a release clause mean we can’t afford to loan someone? I think you’re confusing yourself

The loan had an option to buy. Who are they more likely to loan him to, the club that says we could give you $20m if we get promoted, or the club that says we'll give you a packet of Skips if we avoid relegation?

Quite why we're arguing about a transfer that didn't even happen from 2 years ago is beyond me but sums up your contribution to this forum I guess.

Interesting that Barnsley were agreeing to that. Remind me of their record transfer fees

The context of the conversation was I said we should’ve loaned him when Barnsley did.
Both @PVA and @procdoc found it hilarious and said we couldn’t afford to as he had a £20m option to buy. Quite the relevance that had to my comment I’m not too sure. I think they struggle to understand what a release clause means

PVA thought it was setting the fee so you’d have to pay £20 million to get his signature

I think he is struggling with the concept of irony. Still someone mentioned ‘war’ on here so PVA got a hard on and had to get involved

You said he WILL cost £20 m

Taxi cancelled for Robins

Ched evans would have been perfect, shocking that we didn’t sign him I wouldn't describe not signing a 32 year old former prisoner who has scored 3 in 13 as 'shocking'

Yes because if Barnsley wanted to sign him at the end of the loan he would have done. That was the agreement.

You said it would cost us £20m unless you are a Barnsley fan?

I was chatting to a team mate of mine after playing at the weekend. He’s a Celtic fan - he goes to a few games - and has played at a high level. I was asking him who they’ve got nowadays. He seemed pretty unbiased about players skill sets etc.
Talked about Rangers, and was quite complimentary about them…went on to say that the rest of the league is absolute shite…”proper Sunday league stuff”.
I then remembered Ryan Kent played for Rangers, so mentioned him. First thing my mate said…”no end product”.

I don’t, Middlesbrough are too out of range, I’d rather them beat Norwich and draw with Luton

Would like Luton to turn over Millwall, as I think they are the likeliest of the top 6 to fall out.
Would love 'Udders to do Blackburn today, too.

I reckon the playoff dream is on life support at best. Loads of results need to go out way.

Need Luton to get a goal.

Rotherham are doing us a favour atm

The Luton captain Lockyer should have given away about three penalties. The ref doesn't want to give them and still Luton hang on at 0-0.

West Brom now losing.

11 mins gone - Sunderland 0-1 Hull. Amazing strike into the roof of the Sunlun net from Tufan. 16 yards out on the right side of the penalty area and still beat the keeper at his near post.
