What's the deal with Tom Ince?

[RoyHodgeGone]

Is it a 35% sell on clause or is it 50%. Scored 13 in 18 in the Championship, could be a nice little earner for us if a PL side comes in for him or we could even sign him in a cut price deal. Would you have him back?

[Evil_Ways]

Saw him vs Ipswich earlier in the season where he was on fire with 2 goals and 3 assists and then the highlights from yesterday where he scored another two and had one assist.

 

He's had one and a half season of regular first team football now, so he's bound to have developed a lot. He would not have got the same development here so i'd be glad to see him come back more of a finished player, even though he's still got plenty to improve, under Rodgers i reckon he'd get plenty of games aswell. Hope he comes back.

[therevivalist]

Depending how much he costs I would have him back. If we're indeed to pay 6 mil as the rumours have it, you might just forget it. I would go up to 3 mil max. He could be useful if he can replicate that form in the championship.

[Adebisi]

I haven't seen enough of him so I don't know if he's good enough, or if he'd come back, but he seems to be banging them in, so selling Downing and bringing in Ince seems like a good idea to me.

 

Probably wouldn't be a massive amount of money either due to the sell on clause.

I havent either, just one game and a bunch of highlights from the Blackpool games, which clearly isnt enough, but i suppose it gives you a hunch. Certainly looks the type of wide forward Rodgers likes though, quick and technically gifted certainly a 'points player' since moving to Blackpool aswell. Walcott, Ince and another good forward would be a great window i think.

[MLB]

I think we would be mad not to try and bring him back.

[ChippyTeaFriday]

He's boss Ince. I saw him play against me nephew years ago he scored a an overhead kick he was only about 10 or something at te time. Knew he'd be a good player. Pity we sold him but we'll worth 6 mill to get him back, he'll only get better an all.

[Moss is Boss]

So whats the deal with the 35or 50% do we get like a discount ?

[Baltar]

If he's as good as they say why on earth did we release him? Surely someone at the club would have realised his talent and convinced TPTB to keep him?

He wanted a guarantee of first team football, and KK wasn't prepared to give him said guarantee so off he fucked.

[No2]

The more we spend on him the more we save.

[Sweeney287]

Doesn't he take the pens for Blackpool, if so how much does that inflate his goals by?

[aRdja]

The more we spend on him the more we save.

 

If you're no good with maths, that'd be the case

[The Tott]

My brother is a blackpool fan (dont ask me why) so I've seen more blackpool games than the average Joe. Hes quality and for 6m (providing we 35% odd back) it should be a no brainer.

[Ne Moe Imya]

Damien Comolli was in charge of these decisions at the club at the time, in case you've forgotten. I know I've tried to block it out as well.

 

Anyway, I think he actually would represent very good value. Isn't Zaha being touted at 20 million these days? He hasn't looked any better than Ince IMO. I always thought Ince looked a little selfish in the reserves, and he wasn't a patch on Sterling, but if you're going to score a goal every two games or more as a wide player you can be as selfish as you like.

Its 35% sell on but black pool will ask us to pay 35% more than other clubs if we want to buy him back so they don't 'lose' out on the deal. Karl Oyston is not a stupid chairman.

I'm not following that.

 

We've reportedly got a 35% sell on clause.

 

If a club buys him we get 35%. If we buy him, we get 35% unless we agree to waive the option and sign him for 35% less than stated.

 

Either way we're getting 35% so their chairman and his preference won't make any difference.

 

65% of £6m is £3.9m whoever he signs for and that's what Blackpool would get

You're not following it?

 

You clearly dont know oyston. Oyston's idea is to inflate the fee we would pay by roughly 35% to negate any 'discount' we may be entitled to.

[Dan]

Im sure we would end up paying 5 million. Everybody wins, he wont be at blackpool for much longer anyway so we would be better to have him here.

 

We certainly wont be getting a 35% discount, that's for sure

[Rambo]

So he'll increase the fee other teams would pay too I take it? I see what you're saying, but if we offer more than another team, Blackpool make more. I'd like to think even our negotiators wouldn't pay 35% more than another team..... Oh wait, maybe they would

[zigackly]

If the lad is worth five or six million, he's worth five or six million, no matter how stupid we were to let him go. I can't see us paying more than any other club, but we might waive all or part of the selling on fee to get it done.

[Newport]

I'd rather have Kacaniklic back.

[FrenchEyeGlass]

But why should we wave anything? That doesn't make any sense. We instated that stipulation when we sold him for a reason - that being, if he ever realised his potential and moved on, we would be reimbursed for everything we had invested in him.

 

Im sick of us getting fucked over by clubs. As long as we match (or slightly better) other offers, Blackpool would have to accept it. Them not accepting it would make absolutely no sense - because even if they sold him to somebody else we'd get paid handsomely!

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Tom Ince-Phillips.

 

Jermaine Ince-Pennant.

There are two factors at play here - first is; Oyston is a difficult man to deal with and plays hardball in his negotiations (which he has every right to)

 

We on the otherhand, have Ian Ayre........... who'd end up paying £5 for a Mars bar.:wallbutt:
