Independent Leyton Orient Forum

It is content day at the O's and we feel we owe you something special...

Let's do a player contract at 5pm, then?

#LOFC #OnlyOneOrient


Assume this means an extension for someone like Happe rather than a signing?

Coulson, since its a thread on here already?

I hope it’s a new super signing and not coulsons extended contract.

It's not a new player.

Been delayed, but promised this afternoon.

Website has crashed so might be related.

O.k. I will settle for an old player. Welcome back Koroma.

5 o’clock. Delayed. Players in 2 weeks, still waiting. Website delayed.

Wake me up when it happens

Will hardly be something special if it’s just a contract extension that the whole world and their aunt already knew about.

Bet my aunt don’t But I know what you mean. Coulson probably, may be Happe. Good news of course but I doubt it will be mind blowing. Good club communication though.

Now @ 6.15.

Dan Happe. New deal.

Fook the players contracts , get someone in !!

Good news but we have about 24 hours to get someone in sooo get on it guys

Sigh..............@Bigron

What a joke , couldn’t organise a p*ss up in a brewery !!!

On the face it appears good news, so let’s hope that his agent hasn’t done another bonne and agreed a years extension in exchange for a ridiculously low buy out clause.

Sell him for a nice big wedge end of season 2019/20 with add ons

Guaranteed

£50k buyout clause

Imagine thats exactly whats happened. To be it might be the only way to get people to sign. They know theirs been interested so its in the clubs interest to sign them another year, and they will want some reassurance that if someone comes along and bids a certain amount, they will be allowed to go. Just the reality of being a team like Orient.

I'd prefer that to Bonne not signing the extension and going on a free this year.

You're right, it's probably lower than that

Sessions reckons the buyout is 'significant money'

So, let me get this straight. We don't want the club to let young players go... but also we don't want them to sign them to stay.

Bonne was a non league player not even guaranteed to repeat his first season success when he signed the deal. We got a decent fee for him considering the contract was signed after his first year at us, with future clauses should he go on to more success. I don't really see what the issue is.
