And if your child loved a particular player and wanted see him play would you take him/her to make them happy?

It depends really, if they said they wanted to support a certain term because a certain player played for them I'd educate them about football teams and why people support different teams and that you don't change who you support because of a player they have signed, as players come and go.
When I was a kid, I never understand how anybody could ever change who they support and the people who had more than 1 team. To think I would want to support Man Utd back then because they bought Roy Keane or something wouldn't have happened.

If you are going to sell someone you want to make sure you are getting top dollar for them, do you think we could have got more for madders or actually needed to sell him at all last night?

Think some people miss the point about why fans are annoyed .
I don't think it's so much to do with selling Maddison , I don't think it's even about the fee , I think it's more to do with another hefty sum going SISU's way and it will be diverted from the club into their banks whilst the club scrimps and scrapes by being self sufficient and recruiting frees and loans again .
let's be honest , the playing side will see very little of what has been made by selling James Maddison , it never does.
Yes it's a fantastic sum of money for a lad like James Maddison , but fantastic for who , certainly not the team , but for SISU it's great

Think that NLHWC has had a sewason ticket at Newcastle the last couple of years, bit pissed of that he's had to buy another one for City now that Bigi is back.

Listen i said could not would. We live in suffolk no-one else here supports cov its hard for him being a youngster and supporting us while all his mates are your usual prem league supporters. I take him to as many games as i can and he loves it and he loves ccfc. He has been a mascot and played fifa with haynes and madders when he tells his friends things like that what do you reckin they say to him? Am just stating that as a young boy players make big impressions on people, he going to be upset this eve when he finds out.

At least next season he won't have so far to travel to see Maddison.

Then fair play to him, I bet out of people he knows he is one of a few to actually go to games.
Of course players make big impressions, they are heroes. Not a reason to suddenly decide to support other teams though, players will always come and go.

What better situation to use than this start teaching him about the reality of the sport? And that Maddison has his own family and future to think about.

None of them go to games apart from him. The statement i made may have been a bit OTT he wont stop supporting us, he does still ask me though when callum wilson is coming back!

Unfortunately the days of Le Tissier and John Terry are over.
If this is true, it’s very much the same as an NFL free agents contract. The difference being we get the bonuses if Madison performs, not the player at prem level. The buying club call it low risk high reward as its heavily reliant on performance and level reached by Maddison.
So if this is true 2mill is what any debate should be about, as that is the only thing guaranteed to us as a club. Is that high enough i dont think so still the day after. If they paid 5 mill with incentives that would of been a better deal. This is not just about him also it what can we reinvest and build our next squad on, 2 mill is the only guantee not enough bad deal in my opinion.

I did that, and made my son a CCFC fan. He now regularly gives me a withering look about it that only a 14 year old can do.
Since Ed Balls is now the Norwich Chairman, I think we are entitled to expect at least eleventy billion.
