Doesn't this sound like - " As you have mouthed off previously that you want out, now put in an official transfer request & lose any pay offs you might have been entitled to, then we will agree a fee with another club"
- if so, sounds a good bit of management to me
What pay-offs would those be?
As I understand it, if a player does not request a transfer but is offered for sale, they are entitled to a loyalty bonus if they agree to the sale.

A loyalty bonus? For 1 seasons service, **** this game!!
It's not for 1 season. It's for the other seasons he'd have played if he hadn't been sold while under contract.
God bless him for potentially seeing out his highly lucrative contract, such admirable service to his employers should be highly rewarded.
It's the people who pay silly money for tickets and Sky subscriptions that ultimately are to blame for the money players get. You can't blame them for taking the going rate.

Of course you can. **** those greedy ****s. They should insist on being paid no more than £50 per week to stay grounded and in touch with the common folk..
Meanwhile, Lee Peltier has been left in limbo after City rejected offers from Leeds and Huddersfield for the full-back.
The defender has told City he wants to leave, but the club are holding out for close to the £750,000 they paid Huddersfield last summer.
Peltier had hoped to be able to speak to both clubs but City have refused him permission until they accept an offer, which now looks unlikely as the Terriers' interest seems to have cooled and Leeds are exploring alternative targets.
Sky Sports saying Leeds have made an 'official' approach.
I tend to agree with you, but the purchase at the time made sense, with him coming from a pretty good Huddersfield team. The hope was that he would kick on from that, but for whatever reasons he didn't.Good - unfortunately for Pelts he was just one of many bad buys last season - simply not good enough.
Would be perfect as a regular right-back for a Peterborough or a Barnsley but for a club chasing those elusive two promotion spots? No.
So what does Warnock see in him that Pearson doesn't?
