VillaFaninLondon Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 3 minutes ago, Eastie said: But surely it would be in villa interests to not make public and deny it rather than alert clubs to it if asked? I could see why the club would deny a release clause and also why Jack would want one inserted into such a long term deal - not saying there is one but would understand why villa would deny it . Yes, but if he was to go to City for below his value to us I hardly think Villa fans would be sympathetic and say "oh Purslow was just protecting Villa's interests". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So who knows. This will be like the ESR story. City are close to signing Jack then wham all of a sudden were offering Jack a new contract, this is the same crap that started not to far into the window. These people create this bollox because look how it stirs the hornets nest up. They don't care whether they are talking shit because they have got there objective done which is earn money and get lots of views,reviews,followers and posts. There are agendas behind it all. Then here's the kicker, if by somehow these people do get it right then everyone thinks they are the next mystic meg or what's his name who was spose to be the vision guy who could see all the disasters happening through time. They have there tricks and agendas and get increasingly better at it each year, really they are no more than god damn Gypsys reading your palms and tea leaves.

omariqy Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I don't know how people can say he's not going anywhere. We don't know if he has a release clause. If they activate it then I'm sure he will be very tempted to leave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 If Purslow had have actually said that there's no release clause then we'd know about it and wouldn't need to ask if he said it, because the quote would have been repeated over and over again in the media, espcially on clickbait sites like the Birmingham Mail.

AvonVillain Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Sorry to even take part in this, but, Why would you ever ever admit your best player has a release clause? There's absolutely no benefit to us at all in doing so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okonokos Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I'd be amazed if he has a release clause in his contract. We're too well run nowadays to do things like that. He'd probably have a relegation clause but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they should force the Owners to sell up and make it so anyone caught doing stuff like this has to give up there ownership of the club. Then the club should be fined, banned from making Transfers be points deducted and be banned from entering Europe. Can't keep letting these clubs and there Owners operate like this and keep taking the piss. When are UEFA and the FA going to make a stand and say enough is enough because this would be a good place to start.

I would imagine he absolutely does have a release clause however it’s probably contingent on us being relegated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
