KingKirk 25,633 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 They should be added into all contacts to stop clubs offering peanuts, just because the level or nation we play in.Depending on how important that player is to the club we set a release clause of 10million.Players that don't demand so much money 6million. Any player that has under 3year deal we set there clause at4million.That way every team knows the price match it or bolt. No-negotiations.If players won't sign up to such a deal in there contract do we really want them at the club? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC55 108,841 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Happens in Spain but tbh if a player has a 10 million release clause and he's shite the teams normally accept the lesser offer. This only really protects big name stars Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bheast Skelper 411 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Its hard enough to get rid of some of the deadwood that Ally has signed as nobody else would pay them what we do.Bottom line is, if we don't want to accept an offer for someone who is in contract, they are going nowhere.

This only really protects big name starsIf the club shows some respect for Rangers n our players then we could maybe do a cut price deal..Meeting in middle ground. Its all well n good saying a club will determine how much someone is worth..They will know that a pitiful bid will be kicked out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good players joining us will get paid well.. When It comes to selling..I think its only right we try n get back what we have paid out over his contact length(including transfer fee).Risky tactic mate n we might end up with some guff. A good scouting network would hopefully limit that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ger_onimo 20,488 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I thought those clauses just meant that the club HAD to accept offers of that amount? Doesn't stop them accepting lower offers does it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

legalbeagle 3,734 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 This wouldn't stop us receiving low bids, or clubs trying to unsettle our players. It would mean that we could actually lose a player if they improved substantially in conjunction with our rise. Release clauses are not good for the 'selling' club.

Is it not just a player's agent saying "he's not worth £10m yet, but if anyone offers that in the future you have to sell him"? Don't see what the club has to gain?

stuvah 146 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 we should always be at least looking to reclaim what we have spent on a player. in wallace's case he has also been our best player for the last 2 seasons so to accept a loss on him regardless of what league we are in would just be bad business and also very shortsighted.

Dietspam 733 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 This is normally the player that has it in there so they can fuck off when a club activates the clause. Just because the player has one, doesn't mean a buying club can't offer less. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

docspiderman 1,225 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Maybe sometime in the future when we have players that would attract other clubs to offer money. As it stands only Wallace and possibly McLeod are sellable assets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-negotiations.If players won't sign up to such a deal in there contract do we really want them at the club?So you would put everyone on long term contracts ? MKes it difficult to get rid if unwanted players .Also release clauses are not min fees - you can hVe a release of £10 m which is an automatic trigger but a fee could still be negotiated at say £2m Contracts are not that simple long contracts big playoffs if player fails but bug fees if potential to sell Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaltersGotStyle 160 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Pointless, they have them in Spain as it's in the rules laid out by their FA, hence the reason the likes of Messi and Ronaldo have unthinkable release clauses - to ensure that they do not lose them as people are unlikely to meet their price.However this would not protect us against low bids - for example say Walkace had a release clause of £5m - teams like Forrest would still not offer anything close to that valuation, we would realistically only get the £5m if he was romping it in Europe and at that point the rease clause would become a negative as it would limit the amount we would get.

The Godfather 71,874 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Hearts took 100k off the price because we payed them the money back early.And they also had to sell as they were facing financial hard times....We have done it to clubs for years so moaning when it happens to us is stupid.
