Tommy Elphick sold for £3 million

[chrisg]

Tommy Elphick just signed for Aston Villa for £3 million. 2 thoughts - firstly did BHAFC put in a sell on clause for a decent percentage sell on, after they sold to Bmth 3 years ago - would be a tidy sum if they did.

And the second thought?

Don't think we did so nothing coming our way

Is he related to Michael?

 

[Yoda]

Was he not released from his contract with us?

Scene of his memorable FA cup goal for us.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Villa are a huge danger. Albeit, after this signing, I'd say, mostly to themselves . . . .

No, Ballmouth paid a 6 figure sum for him.

Nothing about a sell on clause here

That Gus geezer had an eye for young players...

I know nothing about whether we do our don't have a sell on clause for Elphick, but I know for a fact we have a huge sell on clause deal for Cook

Have one from Cook but doubt Elphick's is ummmmm as big!

Think you are reinventing history here a bit. He had been out injured for a year, had at least 3 players deservedly in front of him.

I'd say Gus did him a favour by letting him go

Out of all the local lads like Mayo,Dunk,Virgo,El -Abd etc Elphick was my favorite. Really nice bloke to talk to.

The only surprise was the fee we received but as he had been out seriously injured it was always a chance he wouldn't come back to what he was so perhaps understandable. Even then it was good profit on a youngster who came through the ranks.

Based on what? A % sell on clause is often a given with young player sales these days - Shrewsbury will have one with us for Goldson for example undoubtedly...

That could be a decent wedge you know. You'd think having sold him for only 175 we'd be due about 25%.

Maybe this wedge has helped the Murray deal through [MENTION=4336]smiler[/MENTION] seems to thinks so and I think he might be onto something
