Derby offered full wages for Gregory. Then we wanted a loan fee or signing fee. Would have saved us approx 250K.
We’re looking to do the same for Smith, 100% wages. Again, we wanted a substantial fee.
Derby gave up as we are just terrible to negotiate with.
100% they want him, but as of last week, they didn’t think we would let him go as we are playing him, week later and things have changed with incoming players.
