t'would be interesting to hear the viewpoint of the current hierarchy concerning the LC transfer, of course whether you believe that, is entirely up to you, what is born out historically though, is that LC has moved on a regular basis, also that Wolves have purchased players to stop other clubs from success, as have so many other clubs, plus, of course, the situation of Callum Wilson, was offered more, according to SW, but then chose to move to B'mouth,
in summation, both sides of these stories could / should be heard, but, i don't think they will be

Fifth time lucky maybe.

According to you we sold him and then signed a loan *correction, seven players* who cost us more in wages and didn't deliver. Like I said. What benefit did we get out of this deal again?

Wouldn't it also be true to say some of those signings would have arrived even if he'd stayed and we didn't have his transfer fee to "invest" in the squad? Thinking Mark Marshall specifically.

What benefit wasn't your question though was it?

The benefit through was players who still played. Clarke would have never played again if we didn't let him have his way. Even you must know that - then again.

According to the man himself "having his way" consisted of two scenarios. One being the transfer and the second being a pay rise and staying. So if we'd have let him have the second way we'd have still had him, he would have been here at least last season also and according to you we'd have been paying him less than his short term fix loan replacement who wasn't half the player Clarke was for us.

We gained nothing from the transfer as a team. The money was not reinvested in the squad, it was used to cover self imposed loses from the scenario our owners engineered. Why you try to kid people anything different happened as a supposedly CCFC fan is beyond me.

This thread, as useless and irritating as it is, actually did serve a purpose.

Thanks to everyone involved.

Nick · Sep 30, 2015

Is there still a massive conspiracy then, or not?

usskyblue · Sep 30, 2015

It is my, carefully considered, opinion that conspiracy theories tend to be more convincing when they're not presented by thick twats.

stupot07 · Sep 30, 2015

We were making £7-8m losses before the sixfields move, we'd have still been making losses that season if we'd have been at the Ricoh. So covering the sixfields move is a moot point.

Bloody hell. Only on Sky Blues talk could we argue about a player who left us nearly two years ago, and of whom we will never know the truth about the whole saga of why he left. He plays for Bury, move on.

Apparently Robbie Keane scored some goals for LA last year, bloody Richardson the bastard taking all the money for himslf and Robinson and not investing it back in the team, we would still be in the Premier League yadda yadda etc etc ...........

Read what he actually says.

Therein lies the problem. People believe what they read. Edited words or spun words mostly.

We can only believe what has been said when we hear it first hand or in an uncut TV interview...although even then we sometime hear a meaning or implication that isn't there.

What we can do is look for patterns. This guy has either performed well but moved on early for some reason. Or not performed.

...onwards & upwards PUSB

An encouraging opening that faded in to a vat of sarcasm. Sadly, I feel, it will be seen as 'perpetuation' at best.

I think, and I'm sure you'll correct me if I'm wrong (whilst all the while being mindful of 'perpetuation') .....it's clearly a case of; 'who gives a shit why he left?'

covcity4life · Sep 30, 2015

he wanted more money
we didnt want to give more money
he wanted to leave
we let him

understandable from both parties.

So basically a club gives a guy a contract and if the guy who willingly signed the contract decided he wanted a pay rise that's ok.

It isn't really is it? Also I suspect Wolves offered quite a bit more money - don't you?

exactly. sisu haters want the club to bow to player demands. then they would moan they dont run the club right.

The only thing that's obvious about this, and many other threads...is that SISU haters utilize whatever information (valid or invalid) and 'use' it to embelosh their shrine to the Ron Atkinson years.

Nick · Sep 30, 2015

I am not sure what you lot are reading. That article clearly reads that SISU clearly forced him out because they didn't want to pay his wages and he didn't want to go to Wolves. :sarcasm:

Or you can read it the other way and that is to blame anyone bar Sisu for everything.

But when you read the article and the OP then you will see it's a lot of random speculation isn't it? Just because somebody pretty much imagines something and it is pointed out they are wrong.

anybody who points out that people who just randomly make things up / speculate / imagine things are wrong.

No but sisu are not to blame for Clarke leaving.

It's actually really a broader debate that applies to any footballer who sniffs a better offer from another club.

They leave - whatever the club and whatever the owner.

torchomatic · Sep 30, 2015

To be fair though I can't recall any other club EVER having to sell a player against their wishes. It's only ever happened to us. And, we've only ever sold our best players since SISU have been here. Never happened before.

Correct but all I am saying is that it can be read anyway you want too, depending on which side of the fence you prefer.

No it can't. It clearly says he wanted to go and SISU said if you want to go you hand in a transfer request.

Doesn't matter which side of the fence you prefer it is there in black and white, unless you just want to make up theories and then throw the SISU lover line out every time somebody points out it is bollocks that is.

"Ah Joy Seppala is just using CCFC and takes out millions into her pocket"
"She doesn't actually though does she?"
"Stop defending them, SISU lover"

I agree Grendel. In any case, in my view, it should not be a question of 'who's to blame?'. It's more a question of 'did the club (or SISU, if you prefer) make the right decision in allowing Clarke to leave. Given the circumstances and taking into account Clarke's behaviour at that time, I believe that selling him to Wolves was probably the best option available and their decision was therefore fully justified.

You really need to do better no point in calling people names just because they have beaten you in an argument.

Can also be seen as no you are not worth a pay rise so hand in a transfer request and we will cash in?
As for your other comments I wouldn't know if she was taking money out of the club but I'll take your word for it

You probably also think that Jeremy Corbyn is an extremist because he doesn't want to start a nuclear war
