    Sounds like Sheff United are going to go in for £18M bid.

    Is the sell on clause we're entitled to still applicable to any additional add ons or just the initial fee?

    I suppose it all depends on how it’s written but I would say everything.

    tidy profit of £3,000,000. Wonder if Stefan does pocket the 2 mill, if the extra 1 mill has already been spent on wages of the new players, or can be used as money to improve the team?

    If Stefan takes the money then its probably fair but if he gave bowyer just enough for 2/3 more quality players he could witness us win the league. I hope that point will be made to him.

    Where possible I would like to see us sign players - yes with some quality but who can also develop along with us progressing up the leagues. If these players do not want to remain at at City on our journey up wards because they get more lucrative offers - we can make a profit on them with transfer fees- to buy/ bring players to replace them and help our cause.

    Rupp has a big opportunity here to potentially make his money back and more.

    If he reinvests the McBurnie money into the squad and we get some good up and coming talent on the books, allows Bowyer to try and improve them this would hopefully aid promotion, making the club more valuable back in League One. It would also increase the potential value of the squad. Which, again would increase the value of the club (The only tangible asset we as a club have is the playing squad) Therefore it would be more attractive to potential buyers.

    You have 4/5 players on the books that are improving on long term contracts in this day and age there's no reason you can't potentially get £1-£3m for those players at some point down the line. Plus then you have 10/20% sell on clauses.

    Yes it's speculative but investments are, some won't pay off but some will. £2.6m to Rupp is nothing right now. However invested correctly it could be worth a hell of a lot more than that very quickly.

    Hasn't he already been sold this pipe dream by a previous charlatan
    Frankly i'd be amazed if he didn't find it feesible to take back at least half of the potential windfall.

    It doesn't have to be a pipe dream though if it's done properly. With the right people doing it

    If he takes it back and continues to fund us to the same level he has done then fair play to him.

    I doubt that poster will be back, like Nixon he was probably told something incorrect. Not his fault but he was a massive pain with it.

    I'm sure I read somewhere that that player was staying at Swansea due to them already making money from 2 previous transfers.

    I don't think we'll see any immediate difference. anyone expecting us to bring in 2 or 3 new quality signings are going to be a bit dissapointed I suspect. The money that may or may not come in from any McBurnie transfer will be used to balance out any overspend and what we have already spent this summer. it might be we'll be able to bring in the 1 or 2 extra players that GB says he wants but I dont think we're going to be paying fee's or bringing in any 'marquee' players.

    We're a couple of quality players off being a really good side. If we get a windfall itd be a real shame if we didnt finish the job. It'd also be the best way of optimising Rupps chances of a return on what hes spent. Get it right now and we could create the sort of momentum that sees sides win back to back promotions.
