I actually got a bit excited then and thought he'd got sacked

If Freddy moves from Coventry for whatever reason for a higher price will we still get a percentage of the sale ?

Looks like Wolves are going to receive around £1,200,000.00 for Freddy, so no money for us, as our sell on clause was for 20% of any profit. :(

Express & Star

I was led to believe the sell on percentage of 20% was for when he moved on, nothing to do with profit.

The sell on percentage was 25% as per this article, no mention of it being a percentage of profit...

No we won't.

I stand corrected if that is right, I believe the 25% figure you quote is correct (after checking), but I still think it was 25% on any profit.

Guess we will know shortly if the club get a tidy sum (with Mulgrew?) sent to the club and Ron & Tilly have big smiles on their faces. :)

Personally I think Coventry will see the best of Freddy, and Coleman is a great manager for him to work under.
I reckon he could be one of the top scorers in the CCC this year, and he deserves to be after the difficult time he has had at Wolves

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

They cant be genuine Freddy quotes on the Coventry site.
He dosent say obviously or definitely once.

 

[SUBBlue]

That know nothing c*ck McCarthy treats players like imbeciles & tries to break their spirits- imagine he's a right bully.

Well done on the move Fred- do us proud, Coventry are a bigger club than Wolves anyway IMAO.

100% agree - he may do better under an encouraging manager, not a tyrant disciplinarian.

However Freddy will have to dsicipline himself to really sharpen up his fitness regime & lifestyle, a dedicate himself toward upward impovement, otherwise his talents may end up wasted or unfulfilled.


You can lead a horse to water ....

I was under the impression that Coventry had less money than me.
Quite where they've got 1.2mill is beyond me.

Yeah I swear I read somewhere that they were "minutes" away from administration last season..

I remember this aswell.
:unsure: Very strange.

Very good move for Freddy if you ask me.

Coleman did a job good at a poor Fulham side, given a decent chance at Coventry I'm sure he'll get them towards the top half of the table this season.
