Well maybe Hutchinson doesn't have a hidden release clause in his contract, like most players??Sky News headline….Brentford interested in signing Omari Hutchinson from Ipswich, Hutchinson having a £35million release clause.. How does Sky know that? Perhaps the same way that Spurs knows MGWs release clause. Doesn’t that idiot at Forest realise that release clauses are not huge secrets?
Understood. But... if we triggered the release clause lawfully (i.e. it cannot be proven that we broke any rules) then aren't Forest compelled to transact with us, whether they like it or not? Doesn't it become exclusively the player's decision at that point and not the club's?Well no this ain’t the case. In any used marketplace goods are worth what the buyer is willing to pay. If someone else really wants him they will pay more because the release clause is considered below his actual value.
But someone needs to actually want him and there doesn’t appear to be any noise around anyone else. Unless he’s on teams lists as second choice and a deal becomes possible because something else falls through.
So for now, Forest delay. Make a lot of noise and hope a buyer comes knocking.
lol , the chances of Levy intimidating Marinakis is about the same as me dating a super model .
Probably next on the agenda for Levy.so if the bfg (big fat greek) is back to the tapping up angle after flirting with the secret clause angle and likely being told it's not going to fly, should we now expect them to offer some hard proof of the illegal contact?

Doubtful. Player wouod have agreed to move elsewherelawfully, but Forest went ahead and sold MGW to another club anyway, would we have grounds to sue them
But remember, they're a bigger club.. They won the European cup that their grandparents witnessed.
She's only a little bit psychotic, right?

Especially if they've just come here from Spurs Con-unity. They probably think everything people state as fact is actually a fact.Jesus Christ I feel sorry for anyone who’s reading through this from page 1![]()
Hopefully there's no noise from any other club because they are in solidarity with spurs, no club wants there to be issues and legal problems around approaching clubs for players with release clauses, just causes headaches for all concerned. It's just the big spoilt baby isn't getting what he wants and is having a wee tantrum, someone needs to give him a bowl of ice cream or something to calm him down.Well no this ain’t the case. In any used marketplace goods are worth what the buyer is willing to pay. If someone else really wants him they will pay more because the release clause is considered below his actual value.
