Comes from folk who will jump all over White’s less good replacement. Also wanted Revs sacked in January

Possible Knight will that ? Big step up from Academy forty but that is what in affect White did.

Would be very disappointed if he goes there. Can’t knock someone for taking more money in what can be a very short career however. Would like to think he backs himself to play at a higher level and possibly feels loyalty to us in as much as he’d sign on for a couple of years here on the understanding that we wouldn’t stand in his way next summer if a Championship or higher club comes in with a decent offer for him. No guarantees he plays regularly if he leaves, here he’s one of the first names on the team sheet. Better the devil you know.

I’m not sure you can ask or expect any loyalty. If he gets offered a much bigger contract why would he stay? There no guarantee he gets another offer next season so I’m pretty sure most players would take the money whilst it’s there.

Any club signing him during this Summer’s transfer window would have to pay compensation as he’s not 25 until 19th September, so at least we’ll get a fee for him albeit set by tribunal if the two clubs can’t agree.
May also put some clubs off.
Edit: sorry, senior moment, compensation only payable if under 24 on June 30th of the year of contract expiry! So I got that completely wrong!😂😂

That was being rumoured in February. Was already expecting him to be off in the summer (with White and Goode).

A lower end Champ side wanting D Phillip's doesn't seem too far fetched. Especially on a free.
Although I'm sure I saw Neil report that we have a +1 year option on him.

Think PW hinted at the meet the chairman event that we may have the option or that Dan’s contract doesn’t expire this summer as most think anyway.

Neil confirmed that Philips has another year on his deal so we should get a fairly decent amount for him

Wonder then if same applies to the other out of contracts , especially White and Goode.If we trigger them.it could at least mean we get a transfer fee ?

Unfortunately not as far as I gather.
Blackburn were spoken about in January for D Phillips.

Charles is 30, so i doubt we'd ever get a fee. Harvey must be worth a few million though.
Hopefully the set-up and location convinces them to sign again although can 100% see MK sniffing around

Will be hilarious when Orient get less than a tenth of the £15m they're asking for Dom Ballard.

£15m ?! 😂
That could cover their losses for 5 years.
