I really like McCallum but it's not a position for which we need another player.

On what basis would people have McCallum back ?

Made 17 championship appearances in 2 years

He was decent in league 1 but we have moved on to a play off contender at the top of the championship - does being an ex player merit a return ?

He was good in the Championship for us too.

If we get a bid for Bidwell and he goes then McCallum is the natural choice for the squad.

JDS looks like he can cover either wing back role and having SM in and around creates options.

Plus, if we have a sell on fee, isn’t it better they sell him back to us for say, £1m, than Swansea for the same? If we’ve got a 20%, Norwich would only net 800k.

Is that how it works?

Sell on fees only usually apply to the fee above which they originally paid. If they sold him for £1m we'd get nothing.

Not sure about that. You may be right - I’m not trying to be conflictuous.

My guess is that it’s down to the wording of each contract.

Anyone ITK here with any inside intel?

Although past his best Waghorn was evidently a decent pro while with us even though it never worked out for him, so good luck. If I'm honest I can't really see him tearing up League 1, but his experience and professionalism may have a positive effect on some of the younger players in the team to learn from.
Click to expand...
I think Waghorn’s heart was always still with Derby in his time here tbh, had they not have financially imploded he probably wouldn’t have left

Was a square peg in a round hole for us, couldn’t knock his effort but ultimately didn’t work out - Think some of the stick he got was bang out of order, hope he does okay

It would be on wording, but I doubt that a negotiator would agree to it being below the initial value (I.e. % of total sale).

That would only compound an issue if you find you're making a loss, whereas bonuses would generally be viewed as a slice of success (I.e. performed well and value increased).

Makes sense I suppose.

Might be a cheap-ish signing addition in any case.

Also for their B team I believe.

Local which probably puts less pressure on him in terms of wages and maybe living near or at home? Hope he does well and he may yet make his way back up the football ladder.

Yeah we could have used that to give Hamer the extra 50p a week he wanted to stay.

I asked two main bookies for odds on topscorer odds for Portugal and both game back and said they wouldn't offer them. Yet you can bet on the ball going out of play in the first 10 seconds in Filey vs rugby town.

Pathetic
