I suspect consequential damages would be excluded in the line rental contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this shit the guy only cost 22m why not bring him in regardless of the DD situation we needed cover for DD anyway it's just a cop out to say oh well we were waiting for the DD situation before we could do owt? It's complete incompetence by the club, disgrace We have budgets to stick to, we don't know if that wold have taken us over budget or over FFP if we hadn't completed the DD transfer.

Tuna Posted 6 September 2017 Share Posted 6 September 2017 It's a complete farce of the highest order. What the **** were we playing at waiting until the last minute to forward the documents on anyhow? We brought him over from international duty annd fully intended to sign him. Get the transfer sorted then worry about whether drinkwater goes. Someone is responsible for leading the days events and has cost the football club hundreds if thousands of pounds. That individual pays with their job. If it's Rudkin so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 6 September 2017 Share Posted 6 September 2017 This transfer window has been shambolic for us. We had the Iheanacho signing that took months to conclude, the whole Riyad saga ending with him flitting around the airports of Europe trying to get a move on deadline day and now this. Either we're very unlucky or we're totally inept.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babylon Posted 6 September 2017 Share Posted 6 September 2017 Shakespeare will have every right to be furious here, end of the day the club sold one of his best players and haven't replaced him. One injury and we could be in the much centrally now and we're left with a load of players with question marks over whether they can cut it.

SCP4Ever Posted 6 September 2017 Share Posted 6 September 2017 29 minutes ago, whitlock said: Where does this leave Silva? He hasn't officially left Sporting has he, will he not just play there until January? He has. The transfer is done, he's no longer a SCP player. FIFA don't contest the transfer, they contest the player registration with the FA. 13 minutes ago, BlueBrett said: To be fair to FIFA, if you miss the bus by 14 seconds you have missed the bus... Given all the recent scrutiny they've been under you can understand them wanting to be compliant to the t. That's not completely accurate. You started to board the bus before the deadline, but finished after. Can they really close the door with you in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the Iheanacho signing that took months to conclude, the whole Riyad saga ending with him flitting around the airports of Europe trying to get a move on deadline day and now this. Either we're very unlucky or we're totally inept.... Three different situations. Iheanacho had that image rights legal issue - not the fault of the club. Mahrez's decision to go on a tour of European cities was likewise nothing to do with the club. The Silva one looks as if it was badly handled, but there may be factors we don't know yet (did SP up the price at the last minute?). Personally I'd prefer to know more before joining the lynch party... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnegan Posted 6 September 2017 Share Posted 6 September 2017 Regards a loan to lower leagues, you can only play for two clubs in a season can't you? So if we loan him to the championship, assuming he's played for Sporting in August, he wouldn't be able to play for us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps because we didn't need Drinkwater and Silva and there was no guarantee we would have got anything like 35m for Drinkwater in January.

jonny_wright Posted 6 September 2017 Share Posted 6 September 2017 Leicester are now working with Sporting Lisbon, the player and FIFA to try to resolve the situation - and trying to persuade FIFA that the deal should be allowed to stand. If FIFA refuse the registration, Silva's transfer will collapse - he will remain a Sporting Lisbon player, and Leicester will pay no money for him. I suspect that he wont ever see him in a Leicester shirt, Sportingwill be releuctant in January to sell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Barry Hammond Posted 6 September 2017 Share Posted 6 September 2017 Seems to me the club knew the situation on that evening - hence the lack of a major announcement. Given this story is now emerging, I ponder whether the club has made initial representations to FIFA on the matter in Private, they've not been successful, and so they've gone to the next stage of a more public appeal via the press.

Exactly, there's every chance Chelsea don't want Drinkwater in January and very likely they don't want to pay £35m either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
