oafc-latics Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 do we have the money to be paying fees? a likely low offer is probably be the reason it was 'rejected', providing the story is true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shefflatic Posted July 9, 2012 Author Share Posted July 9, 2012 if we have made a proper bid, then it must mean that we cannot agree on a wage % with charlton for a loan deal? Perhaps Clarke is willing to drop wages if a perm move, but either we cannot match charlton's requested % for a loan deal nor match their valuation, I suspect 50k offer. Would've certainly been a good option to have for a league one team and would fit in well with our forward options but attitude and general demeanour is an issue for me. Tonks it is then!

welshgaz Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Just had a nosey on the charlton forum. They all seem to want rid of Clarke and can't believe they have turned down any monetary offer for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midsblue Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Is says Charlton have rejected our offer. Our offer could be a loan offer at 50% of his wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Agreed it could be Thing is if we pay a fee has to be more than a 1 year deal surely, plus then have to pay him a signing on fee would be amazed if not in their, would love clarke here but not at a fee See McLeod announced signing for a league 1 club this week as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Is says Charlton have rejected our offer. Our offer could be a loan offer at 50% of his wages. This is as much as I can believe. I don't for a second believe that Mr Corney would pay money for a player unless he thought there was a really good chance of making a profit on them, and someone who is generally loaned out from his club doesn't fit that profile. I believe that Sky are talking out of their arses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 May I add im not convinced for a second by Sky story that could be a transfer fee wouldnt add up for me Any idea how much is in the playershare pot anyone as hasnt been used on wages for a while has it? I know nowhere near a transfer fee just wondering like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaticsPete Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Does Sky actually say that a transfer fee was part of the offer? Don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisbrogan Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 We won't have offered a fee. As pointed out the 'offer' will be centred around how much of his wage we pay ourselves. Wouldn't surprised if the £5k wage being mooted is actually what Charlton are now expected to pay him as a result of their promotion.

shefflatic Posted July 9, 2012 Author Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) can't say i'm too fussed - he would be a good one to have so long as he is truly prepared to stop being a nomadic player and a lazy git when he feels like he wants to be one and actually start doing his job and making a decent name for himself. If he doesn't want to be at Oldham for the right reasons then give me Tonk every day of the week - 10 goals plus 100% effort to the team, not too shabby. Thing is with Clarke, he is just the sort of player you wouldn't want to play against as you always know he's a threat.....oh well either way over to you PD - so long as our 2nd choice aint Paynter - now he makes a slug look quick.

singe Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Is says Charlton have rejected our offer. Our offer could be a loan offer at 50% of his wages. Completely agree, it is far more likely to be loan deal Mind you if he is wanting £5k per week, we might have only offered 5% ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2uptop Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Maybe Charlton wanted an extra £10k and with Playershare adding £9k to the transfer budget means we now can afford to bring him in. (If Corney adds another £1,000 of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If Corney adds another £1,000 of course) You'll have Corney spitting feathers. We all know the club foots the vast percntage of the bills, any fool would undoubtably know that! (that's not at all in any way directed at the poster here) and The cl;ub/Corney doesn't need to spell that out in OS statements!! Playershare does an amazing job. All due to it's many contributors in the many various ways to contribute. Keep it up. Just my hunch that it's Charlton that's the stumbling block. Lets just hope no other club comes along and helps them out with a better offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan up the ladder Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Without knowing the figures involved, interesting that Charlton seem not to be prepared to break bread with us when we let them have our best player two seasons ago for a relative pittance, as well as our top scorer in the previous season for about 20k.
