Mcatee to Luton

[Staines Massive]

£500,000 being touted. Was there a sell on clause does anyone know?

[Deereyme66]

We did warn them about how he has all the loyalty of a serpent. :-)

Apparently so, would be fantastic to get some money for him just after Swann leaves…

[Tom]

Doubt we will get a fee for him as he left on a free I think? Either way very surprising move.

[Beefykeefy]

He didn’t leave on a free, it went to a tribunal

Loyalty??? Would you be loyal to your employer if a competitor at a much higher level knocked on your door with a lucrative pay rise and signing on fee in the offing?

Wondering if /what the sell on is? In one of those Swann interviews he says there was a ‘very healthy’ sell on for Mcatee but then a lot of people suggesting on twitter there isn’t one so I don’t know.

500k would be a good deal though, let’s face it he played a big part in getting us up and only has this year left on his deal so will walk away for nothing in the summer if he stays.

I was being more than a bit tongue in cheek.

[Ferrite]

What a shame we’re not going to be the ones getting that fee – if we’d not sacked Hurst, every chance we would still be in the Football League with McAtee scoring regularly and Town would still be in the Conference.

All fees set by tribunal include a sell on clause as far as I’m aware.

[Vanadrama]

McAtee shows rare loyalty by staying on for another season, bringing in a dollop of cash for them and in the main because of one factor; Hurst.
The man sacked by Swann.Twist it how you want, it’s a(nother) good day for them, they’re not gurning, they’re rubbing their hands.

I rang my cod pal this morning, the fee is six hundred thousand, with a 5% sell on clause if Luton get promoted.
Also Luton has loaned him back to the club for the rest of the season. Yes they are rubbing their hands with glee, because he will want to show Luton he can score goals in a higher league. This is all Swans fault for sacking Hurst. I see Alexandra is available now having being sacked. I am gritting my teeth with frustration what could have been.

[ironmaster1]

PS. He would have left on a free next summer if he had stayed.

[tashee69]

The chairman has stated it is less than £500k and it is a double digit percentage sell on.
Quite a decent deal for us, as he was out of contract at the end of the season. Think you will have a percentage of that, as is the normal case when we signed him off you in the tribunal.
Good luck in getting rid of Swann.

[mistertonmick]

we do get a sell on I have asked Lee Turnbull

Won’t that money effectively go to Swann though? Maybe an extra flat on the development, or another slip road?

[Bartoniron66]

Sick of hearing this guys name can we just move on and forget him and let him be someone’s else’s problem.

It can’t be true Mick! Some bloke on Facebook says he has seen the deal sheet and it says that we don’t get a penny…

I asked Lee and he said we did, so…

[Iron-awe]

He said/She said, was it ever thus on a football forum. Just give us the frigging money cod heads.

Come on guys, if it was seen on Facebook it must be true, I heard from a bloke at the garage

[Iron-awe]

There’s a guy works down the chip shop….etc etc.

[Huckleberry Hound]

Pleased for the lad to move on. He has the potential to be a decent player. With the Iron though I had the feeling that he thought he was better than he was.

[razoriron]

After been loaned back to the Cods it seems he may be out for a few months with the veey strong possibility of shoulder surgery.

[cassidystash]

He’s secured his move, this season will be a test of his attitude.

[Richgy]

His attitude is decent tbf, Hurst wouldn’t take a slacker and he would just be dropped (not even sure if he has the op he will even play for us much more anyway tbh) what sort of crowd are you expecting at the GP tomorrow? Will try and watch it after our game, hoping somewhere is showing it rather than the daft Epl if can get in somewhere in time after our game

[hakeeeeb]

It’s all about the system.
Mc is a good, solid player. In a proper system, he obviously thrives.
Even Billy Sharp would struggle to score goals in Neil Cox system.

[Awaywego]

Tbf Hurst signed a slacker who’s attitude stunk at scunny, short changed our fans, but it happens at all clubs one time or another just leaves a bitter taste, hope he’s out for a long time for himself and for Grimsby.
