      Easiest £8m we've ever made probably our top 3 fees received for a player and he ain't even ours
      You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

        And Paladini although an inept clown got hammered for not doing more to hold on to Sterling who we sold for £600k, he pulled a great move inserting that clause. £8.6m for a player who never played once for us is pretty impressive stuff. Could even rise another million if Liverpool dig their heels in.

        Almost £31m for Austin, Phillips and Sterling. Nice.

            Very true, most will remain silent I bet. Think Liverpool are holding out for 45 to 50k, let's hope so.

            We must have at least 20% on that sale.

              Apparently it's 25% according to paldini a few weeks ago.

              No wonder Liverpool are holding on for 50 mill.

                Are them clauses for one transfer only? What if he moved again?

                  Don't know mate. I presume just the one move but you never know.

                  But if city get him atm we could be looking at between 10-12.5 mill in the bank which certainly helps with the debts and should allow us to spend a little bit more of the money we get for players like Charlie or fer

                    Before anyone starts with the "any proof for the sell-on clause other than his word". Ian Taylor confirmed its existence the other day
                    I should probably write something insightful here

                          hopefully Liverpool will sell him soon, so that QPR can keep hold of Phillips (if he is inclined to stay).

                            If he goes for that sort of money the terms will dictate it is paid over a period of time, transfer fees aren't paid in one lump sum. I don't know if this means we get our payment in a similar manner or not but there is no guarantee of an instant windfall of cash.

                              We tell them them we want it up front or we'll charge interest.
