Dont they often also get a cut of a players salary as well? I'm sure i read somewhere a while back that they have their fingers in lots of pies, cut of signing on bonuses, contract negotiations, sponsorship deals, then a percentage of the players wages. I guess it's not a huge amount of difference to using a recruitment agency for contract staff, just significantly higher amounts of money changing hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waylander Posted 4 April, 2022 Share Posted 4 April, 2022 If they are anything like literary agents they take a percantage of all earnings. The revenues are paid to the agent who then pays their client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarehamSaintJames Posted 22 May, 2022 Share Posted 22 May, 2022 (edited) Another game, another four conceded. 😂 Whether today is on him or not he is utter shit, the least commanding goalkeeper I have ever seen, even Angus Gunn opened his mouth once in a while. Just leave. And Sports Republic - BUY A NEW KEEPER. 👍🏻 Edited 22 May, 2022 by FarehamSaintJames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamplemousse Posted 22 May, 2022 Share Posted 22 May, 2022 McCarthy is fine as a number 2. He made a good save from Vardy's initial shot before they scored from the rebound btw. Not sure he can be blamed really today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he'll be our back up keeper next season, maybe not straight away but for the majority of the season he'll be on the bench. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying selling McCarthy worries you about money after they've just spent £58.5m? The McCarthy contract predates the Sport Republic takeover so not a reflection on them.

Getting £1-2.5m for him is a win in my books, just so we don't have the risk of him playing in goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to work out where he might go. Forest have Henderson, Fulham have just got Leno & Bournemouth have just signed Netto on a free (presumably as back-up). The only place I thought he might get a chance of first team football is Leicester, but surely they wouldn't come knocking again, would they.........? Other than that, I guess it would be bench warming for a club who would pay more than we are but I have no idea who that might be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do now remember a link to Leicester, the talk is that they wanted a new keeper to replace Kasper - but that new keeper would be more rotational/more backup, as they're looking at Danny Ward to be the new number 1. Given that Brendon seems to love shopping here so much, maybe we can do a special deal and include Bednarek as well? Buy 1, get one free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that Munich pay LFC a million if Mane wins the balon d'or a couple of times. Do you think that million should be included in the total Munich paid for Mane? If you want to continue to quote a total figure, maybe use `£46m plus add ons'. Edited 8 August, 2022 by Chez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnceaSaintalwaysaSaint Posted 29 July, 2023 Share Posted 29 July, 2023 Hopefully Martin has realised he's not even good enough to be our No2 goalie. Still don't understand how someone, whose only job is to block shots and pass it out, can be so bad at distribution. He's a total liability. To be fair to Baz, he's comfortable on the ball and his distribution is pretty good. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
