Harrison to Everton - ON LOAN

The only plausible idea that I have come up with as their thinking is the following;

Let the premier league players go out on loan. Free up the wages for too talent to loan from the premier league giants.

Get promoted with them and it won’t matter that they all go back to their parent clubs because we will have all our premier league players returning from loan.

Completely ignoring the fact that they got us relegated in The first place! That we won’t then back! That they won’t want to come back! And what happens if we don’t bounce straight back up? As well as so many other reason why it would never work.

But what else could their plan have been?

People say a lot of dumb sh 1 t on here.

Like we’ll p1 s s this division and go straight back up.
Some go further than that and put money on it.

Agree pal.

I wont make the same mistake again of thinking, this club does things right and normal.

You dont seem to learn from past mistakes

Just an optimistic fan.

A fan you seem to have a weird fascination with.

🤷🏻‍♂️

Am reading now that there was an attempt by Villa to Hijack the loan move for Jack but that term have been agreed and he will move to Everton but there is no option to buy.
Is that good or bad, it means they pay us a loan fee and we get him back at the end of the season when Everton get relegated.

Its never easy being a Leeds fan is it.

Need some kind of statement from 49ers now to try and give us something to hold onto. Plans in place, all under control etc

Otherwise Elland road is gonna be toxic as hell on Friday

I see that LUST have asked for some clarity

Whoever was in charge of the club this summer was going to have a thankless task. This should have been much easier but the contract situation has made it incredibly difficult.

That is fact.

The question is how much sympathy can we have for the 49ers? Well that is inversely proportional to how much they had to do with the contracts creating this mess.

As pointed out by others, the Harrison transfer was apparently blocked by the 49ers so you would have thought they at the very least approved of his new contract.

I assumed that their would be a release clause in his contract. I assumed this because of the news the players had wage relegation wage cuts. Makes sense.

I also stupidly assumed that with Harrison it would be at a similar level to the bid on the table from Leicester.

I mean there couldn't be an easier situation to base a fair and reasonable release clause on. Hey Jackie, we need you to agree to a relegation wage reduction to protect ourselves against financial meltdown. But in return we will include a relegation release clause at a reasonable level that you could confidently expect a club to be willing to pay. Leicester have literally just offered £22m so we feel a fair price would be £20m to ensure that you have options if we go down and we still get fair compensation.

Bollix. Bollix. Bollix. Feel a tadge (but only a very teeeny weeeny slight tadge) better for that.
