and no doubt if we are obliged to pay it we will. However, it's clear those obligations are in dispute.

Funnily enough, none of your fans seem to consider that logic give regards to say Langston, hmmm?
Clue; forensic accountants are reviewing as we speak.
Now, again, how plausible is it that you magically got a loan contract without one of the standard loan terms in?

because he got injured which is tough luck, its a risk you take, and your owner doesn't want to pay, even though he signed him.
to be honest, if hes signing players and then doesn't want to pay when they get injured your club should be banned from the market as you're conning other clubs out of the money they're due. You deserve an embargo.

Swansea claim there has been no correspondance.
Clegg has claimed Swansea failed to respond to invoices sent.
Swansea's statement smacks of pedantry; there may well have been no nice hand written notes with kisses drawn on them, but if invoices were sent, then it's pretty clear they were well aware of the situation.
Which doesn't bode well if it's proven there was contact from Ipswich. Because that would show Swansea deliberately and cynically lied.
And of course, the after effect would be anybody selling, loaning players to Swansea would want deals pre-loaded to pay the vast majority of fees up front - to avoid being stiffed. Something we've experienced ourselves.
EDIT:
And of course, the statement shows there's no intent to pay, despite what some Jacks on here are saying...

Nicely twisted although what Jenkins actually says is there has been no correspondence since they spoke a couple of weeks ago, rather than there simply being no correspondence at all.

Jenkins has stated the club are unaware of any dispute. His words.
So basically, he's calling Clegg a liar.
Dangerous game that. If Ipswich prove there was contact, invoices were received, instantly Huw is shown to be a liar.
At least on the bright side his nose can't get any longer.

Where is it stated that these invoices were received after the conversation where Jenkins states no contact has been received since?
The Ipswich chairman is quoted as saying "The deliberate misinterpretation of agreed terms by their chairman is not fitting for a club which has just secured the ultimate prize in Championship football and with it a £90m windfall"
Firstly, having a £90m windfall is an irrelevance. Secondly a "deliberate misinterpretation of agreed terms" is basically a contract dispute. Without knowing the exact language on the written contract, It could equally be said that the Ipswich chairman is doing the same.

1) Invoices don't have to have been sent after any conversation. If the invoices were already sent and received, no need to fire more off.
2) Having a £90m windfall is a PR stunt, same as the Motherwell chairman tried against us. Designed to shame. Directly relevant? No, but it makes you look incredibly cheap. Which affects your reputation within the game. As I've said, expect clubs selling you to want pre-loaded fees.
3) "Deliberate misinterpretation of agreed terms" isn't a contract dispute per se. It's uncouched language intimating Jenkins is trying to applying situations so divorced from reality to claim his view is valid. "Deliberate misinterpretation" intimates Jenkins knows he's wrong, has fingers in ears going "nyah nyah nyah".
4) It could equally be said Clegg is doing the same. In my experience, you don't shout the odds from a position of weakness. It would certainly explain why you've signed no-one since Graham - the fee of which almost certainly triggered Ipswich's complaint given a seeming refusal to pay Ipswich.

"Deliberate misinterpretation" is simply another way of saying "A different interpretation to mine and one I don't agree with"
Why would it explain why we've signed no one since Graham? Please walk me slowly through that one.

1) That was my point. "No communication" is merely a semantic comment with little relevance. Unless Jenkins has written confirmation the invoices are not to be persued / relevant credit notes for the sum, then there's zero chance said invoices have been withdrawn. Meaning invoices remaining outstanding, lying on file. Credible for Jenkins to thus act surprised when Ipswich complain? "Oh we spoke, I thought those lovely invoices weren't relevant anymore?" Do me a lemon!
2) It may be simply another way to you, I'd suggest the tone of said comment is fairly harsher than your interpretation. As in, "You're a liar". One thing is for certainly. One of them is lying; would you really like a back either with a 50% chance of losing?
3) Football is an incestuous business. People talk. This issue may have come up, Ipswich may have already approached the relevant authorities. One scenario I've given you is that clubs may have suddenly revisited deals close to completion with you, wanting more money up front. Who knows? It's certainly a possibility.

Without knowing the content of the conversation between the two parties that took place a couple of weeks ago, any comment is guesswork. As far as we know, it may have been prior to the play off final and the Ipswich chairman verbally agreed to waive any supposed right to additional payments from promotion due to the fact Priskin had played little part in it and is now seeing £££ signs and going back on that agreement. This could be the reason for HJ saying he was not aware of any dispute.
Like I said, all conjecture.
