How close are we to 100% now on this deal?

in principle it’s a 3 year deal. Hamer wants a release clause of no promotion by the 2nd year added. haven’t heard anything since

Fine by me and totally understandable. Is it a 3 year deal on top of his deal? If so, promotion clause sounds like he will be able to leave if we arent promoted within the next 3 seasons which is completely fair.

To be fair that’s pretty natural for a player of his quality

either 2/3 years before clause kicks in

3 years plus the year, so contacted for another 4?

Suspect it’s a 3 year deal only as the old contract is void.

I’m surprised he does anyway given he didn’t get a bonus and the general toxic atmosphere

Only dip in and out in close season. I know some of you look at peoples predictions and if they are right. Is GIMOC for real or just another WUM. Anyone know if he has been right in the past? The City has seemed a tight ship information wise for a while and MR has been very complimentary about DK. Everyone wants Hamer to sign and surely, if true, kudos to DK.

Clearly has an in, but not a direct in so how coherent the info is, is up for debate.

As an aside, I'd ignore anything people say in the press. MR is hardly going to call King a shitbag is he.

No he isn’t but Robins didn’t have to be repeatedly positive about him, he also didn’t need to sign a new 3 yr deal.

Itx possible that’s Robins view has changed of course but that could have only been in the last 3-4 weeks.

If you were a bit mischievous you might have a bit of fun with certain people being extremely credulous and feed them a bit of nonsense for a laugh. Then again you might not need to if people think 2 + 2 = 5G controlling our pets.

He just parrots what he sees on Twitter, and lifts stuff from here and posts it on there.

Gimoc he is the key man and allows robins to get defence and strikers in as midfield think we are fine with Palmer and COH back.

Was at cbs last night first time since season ended and there’s loads of work going on inside, I suppose by Fraser Group, it’s a business venture to make money obviously and not just football connected.

When you go in the main entrance there’s a large room on the right and that’s having what looks like a massive re-fit going to be interesting to see what that will be.

It just seems odd that a clothing retailer would want an arena complex. At least it did until 5 minutes ago when I read they are opening fitness clubs. Perhaps that’s what the big room being worked on mentioned by Slowpoke will become.

talking about Slowpoke, what happened to the signings that were due yesterday?
