John Stones transfer saga

[Efc 9911]

..yes they do. The difference is that they don't typically sign new contracts when traded and their old one is null/void.

Im saying that in American sports, you can't just "bid" for someone in the middle of their contact. The club can try to trade for them.

Question mate - would you blame Roberto in the slightest for walking off the back of this?

I actually don't believe he's had any input on this whatsoever. I think he's been badly double-crossed by Kenwright and Bobby has been woefully naive about how business is done at Everton.

It's not even an issue. He's a professional. He'll be here for a long time yet.

TBH, I think it strengthens Martinez position. He's the idealist let down; he's also the manager struggling manfully to get us wins after being shafted. That's how it worked out for Smith, and that's how it'll work out again.

Guess Moyes parting words for him now seem all too real mate

In North American sports, a no-trade clause generally means the player's list of teams that he doesn't want to go to.

It normally doesn't have much to do with a team's ability, though. It's more about going to a big market or attractive place to live.

They're fairly common in basketball, but you don't see them as much in football, baseball, and hockey.

Baseball and hockey are pretty common these days, mostly only for high level talent. Almost NEVER in the NFL even tho Philip Rivers just got one with the chargers

I don't always agree with your views mate, but appreciate your consistent utilitarianism. Unfortunately, I suspect the accounts for this financial year will see a massively adverse movement in working capital (ie increase in debtors) which will manifest itself cash-wise in next year's "other operating costs".

They're carpetbaggers. Maybe more people will come to accept they are the enemy - or should I say ALL will now realise that.

Ho I'm from the shed end and today someone has joined your site and is posting pretending to be me. If you go to this page you'll see all about it

I honestly would not have joined but this person is seriously pretending to be me.

ok mate.

@Tubey can you sort this fella out....

I've only really been following football since 2003 but it's been this way increasingly more. Just have to do the best business possible.

It's a bit of a disgrace that Everton have left the fans waiting on this for 2 hours, WBA had the decency to Inform their fans.

WBA informed their fans that the TR was rejected. If the same happens here no doubt we will get a statement later. If we hear nothing then we can assume that negotiations with Chelsea have begun.

...I guess I followed the example of the majority of yours...

Top bantz.

The performance against City was reasonable, i'd like to see you justify your use of the words 'pub team'.

They're carpetbaggers. Maybe more people will come to accept they are the enemy - or should I say ALL will now realise that.

People on Twitter still refusing to even entertain the idea Kenwright is responsible for the state we're in. Nothing will change, and it constantly amazes me how passive Everton fans aren't because "Bill's a Blue"...

 

[sageyefc]

They're both chico mate. Nothing to see here.

Chic-eption

@davek does it not get on your nerves that prat tagging you in every single post?

Bye John, Take @bizzaro with you

He's a passionate Evertonian who wants the very best for Everton. That could never be a problem.

Prepare for this to drag on till the end of the window though.

Until we get replacements lined up, he won't go. So we'll reject his request, get players lined up, sell for £34mill plus add ons, bring in other players.

This will be the way of it

ok mate.

@Tubey can you sort this fella out....

Is tubey a mod?

I know this is really strange and ai know I can't copyright a username but it's very weird this person signs up today of all days and posts with my name. I am honestly not here to cause any aggro I just find it a bit unnerving especially with the PMs he's sent me.
