Why don't you mind your own business? It was nothing to do with you.

We just forget this because no club has wanted any of our players in the last 5-10 years.

I doubt that's a big factor, or they wouldn't have got him to sign the new contract that he did.
They would have made more in agent fees if he'd gone on a free transfer.
I expect them to be sold for good money in the summer, that's the nature of any football clubs apart from the few elite. But not because of their agents.
Just passing on what I’ve heard from a source I trust, Lawlor himself doesn’t necessarily want to go but his management want him to.
His management is small and local rather than a big firm he’s by far their biggest asset and their cut would be pretty huge for them

I still think about Ramsey who was disgustingly let go for 5p when Arsenal, Man Utd and Liverpool were all interested ended up going to Juventus and being one of the best midfielders in europe.
Blue valley made a good point if anyone of the youngsters goes then we must get a big sell on clause and big money as well. I don't think we 've got the personnel with the gravitas to deliver a good deal for the club and it's supporters.

To be fair to Richy, he's just replying to a comment and giving his view.

It was c.£5m and the big issue was no sell-on clause!![]()
Another one who went around the same time was Chris Gunter to Spurs for ‘not much money’ (c.£2m), and a little later the infamous Joe Ledley fled to Glasgow Celtic for no return whatsoever
The politics of the time are well documented, but they weren’t good times for the club financially and as the advert goes, ‘every little helped!’

I'm sure someone will confirm, but Man Utd offered 5m in instalments with sell on etc, but Arsenal offered £4.8m and all the money up front. No sell on etc. We needed the cash and thats why it was done in the way it was.
