Not sure how reliable

Good enough for me! Great signing! Now if we can just confirm Hamer’s 5 year deal I’ll be happy for next season.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Pretty sure we can’t offer him anything, just foreign clubs

Isn’t it last 6 months he can talk to clubs ?

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Officially but we all know what goes on.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Ones not in England yes

I thought players could talk to any club when there is 6 months or less on their contracts? You can on football manager anyway!

Can’t do it with players in the same country I was pretty sure

I think he just can't officially sign anything. But he can make a gentleman's agreement.

I'd love him to choose us, but I'm prepared for the fact he may well choose another option, which would mean quite a CB recruitment drive over the summer.

Are you suggesting that something posted on Twitter may be utter bollocks? Outrageous!

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Whether it's true or untrue the notion that we'd actually wait until the final month of his contract to make contact and propose an informal offer is a bit naive.

 

[NorthernWisdom]

I'm sure he must talk to the manager occasionally about his intentions come the summer...

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Whether it's true or untrue the notion that we'd actually wait until the final month of his contract to make contact and propose an offer is a bit naive.

Well unofficially of course, but technically speaking we can't have offered him anything.

 

[slowpoke]

Would be disappointing if we didn’t get him, I hope we are on the front foot with him I’m sure there will be other interest doubtful from prem. clubs if we see ourselves now as a leading championship club we should get him.

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Well unofficially of course, but technically speaking we can't have offered him anything.

Well yeah obviously. But I think it's pretty likely that Robins and Clarke-Salter have had preliminary conversations about the latter's plans once his contract ends at Chelsea.

Yes nothing agreed but as previous loans for example Liam Walsh and Matty James the club would be looking to sign if terms are agreeable , these two were offered terms but declined

 

[slowpoke]

Think the Matty James issue was down to length of contract Bristol offered longer, Liam Walsh a mystery to me did we really seriously pursue him or fancy Hamer more ?

 

[fernandopartridge]

Without looking I'd imagine the rules are the pre contractual agreements cannot be made, not that pre contractual discussions cannot take place

 

[Liquid Gold]

Would be a fantastic signing and have that LCB role sorted for a good few years.

With the out of contract thing he can speak to people out of his association (The FA) 6 months prior to his deal expiring and 1 month within the association. That means that he could have offers on the table from abroad but we all know how the game works and there will be contract outlines for him from English clubs that would be official in May.

I hope he does look at Liam Walsh and Matty James and realise that money isn't everything. He also has the experience of being in Brum for a coupe of years and not enjoying his football or having the fans on side.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Could possible have been told by Chelsea he’s free to find a new club, we can then make an offer

 

[procdoc]

Considering Walsh has barely played a first team game since being on loan at us we made the right decision signing Hamer instead

Bristol offered better facilities and how they looked after players also which james felt was important , Walsh was never going to turn down Bristol city as they offered 15k a week
The point is we have nearly always offered decent loan players who have impressed opportunities to sign so JCS would be the same

 

[David O'Day]

Yeah you can talk to players in the last 6 months of a contract but you can't officially sign them until the last month. It's to stop the issue you get in Scotland where players end up playing against teams they have officially signed for.

 

[NorthernWisdom]

'How they looked after players'?

 

[vow]

Hope it's true but it does sound a bit like his agent is touting him out already!?

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

If Mark has not had a word I would be very disappointed

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Depends on the context of the conversion and the situation I guess. It's one of those that's a bit of a grey area as it borders on the line of tapping up.

Wouldn't matter to a club like Chelsea who will have little interest what happens to Clarke-Salter once his contract expires, but if he played for another Championship club and they wished to offer him an extension, then it might be frowned upon.

Not that anything really would be done about it regardless.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Surprised we have offered a contract to a 'Meh' signing...

 

[Liquid Gold]

'How they looked after players'?

I'm guessing a proper sports since and rehab team as opposed to a cabin down Ryton.

That’s his agents job unfortunately

Is that a suggestion that we definitely won’t be offering mcfadzean a new deal?

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

No. I've no idea what they'll do there. They have been playing Rose ahead of him recently so maybe it's a consideration to look for someone younger, but he's played well for much of this season so could be asked to stay. It is that risk that he might just start to find it a struggle all of a sudden due to age.

 

[The Philosopher]

JCS is exactly the type of player we should be trying to sign.

Tried and tested.
Right age
Good pedigree.

Another good season for us and he’ll have a good price tag.

 

[covcity4life]

Brill player

 

[higgs]

What about Leo any chance of a return?
