Some inside info for you all, which comes from someone very much in the know:
It will break soon that Tom Lawrence will be offered a 2 year contract on slightly reduced terms. This is down to Clement.
Lunny and Borna chose to leave, Clement was begging both to stay and sign 2 year deals. Lunny wanted 3 and same money, he was offered 2 and slightly reduced terms that's the reason he's gone or our great leader would have him first pick in the team as per usual.
Clement spoke to Dessers and convinced him to stay when we had 3 iron clad offers to buy him for a slight profit on what we paid. With this money we could have bought 2 far superior strikers that were younger and on less wages combined he is 30 years old in 3 months.
The 2 strikers i mentioned were both Brazilians - Saldahna from Partizan Belgrade he's actually just left and joined Ferencvaros for under £3 million and on 8k a week, the 2nd player is Juninho from Qarabag he would cost around 2 million, Koppen met with both reps and signing either or both for all i know was down to Dessers leaving. Both younger faster and all round better than Dessers.
Igamane, i've been told is a potential superstar if he settles.
From last season, Raskin was not injured, he fell out with Clement. This is the 2nd half of the season so from Feb onwards they fell out end of October. Ryan jack also fully fit towards end of season and not selected incase he triggered a new deal.
Todd Cantwell almost from day one fell out with Clement the stories are horrific with clement making examples of him infront of the Players and as soon as Cantwell said anything back it was a shouting match and both had to be split a few times, this was down to training being non existent special treatment for other players like as Cantwell said Simple Jack McCausland.
Upshot is Clement has spent a fortune, he does no tactical training, He has created a favourites system and has some players eating out his hands. No matter what these players do, they will continue to get game time, Lawrence and McCausland to name two.
At the time of his appointment, i knew Clement would be a terrible appointment. He was hounded out of Brugge and Monaco. Every transfer decision is down to Clement and this will put us back at least 5 years.
The board are copping it and they deserve everything they get. In my opinion to a man they are incompetent, and in my opinion there is not a single honourable person among them. Just shows how badly we are run, but we all know that now.
Anyways, i only came on to post about Lawrence's new deal and this has turned into a bit of a rant.

Anyone want to jump in and clarify any of it or not ?.

What a load of made up bull if you're not keen for clement then that’s acceptable but don’t come on here and just write a whole load of rubbish to try to create a fake agenda against our manager.

I know this forum is open to all rumours but I believe almost none of that and it sounds like a load of rubbish.
First thing if Lawrence gets a new 2 year deal I will write a personal apology to you. There’s absolutely no chance he gets that when his legs have clearly gone and we’ve just bought someone who’s going to be the main starter.
Clement publicly stated if the right offer comes in for any player except Butland then they can go and also when asked specifically about Dessers he said it was up to the player whether to stay or not. There’s also nothing to say the 2 mentioned are better than him.
Lundstram I’d maybe believe Clement wanted to keep but Barisic no chance.
If Raskin and Cantwell both fell out with him then why would Cantwell continue to be a main stay in the team and Raskin be dropped? Also why would Clement publicly say that he asked Cantwell twice to reconsider and to stay.
If Clement had 0 tactical training then why would the players at the beginning all come out and say his message is clear about exactly what he wants them to do? Then if Lawrence and Mccausland were the favourites you state them to be how come neither started in the biggest game of the season so far?
Then you say he’s spent a fortune would you care to inform everyone on who? Because it looks to all of us he wasn’t backed by the board and spent very little in comparison to what was required.

I’ll believe you if Lawrence gets a new deal, until then….
I’ll also say that every signing can’t be down to Clement as Propper and Cerny are connected to Koppens background in Holland.

I could believe Clement and Cantwell clashing but the rest is comedy gold. There is no way we rejected profit bids for Dessers or begged Lundstram or Barasic to stay.

Bigjorg, I have never heard so much BS in my whole Life. Maybe you should write for the daily sport?

I also forgot to mention the Hagi situation but what's the point. That order came from the board not Clement, he's been black balled by the board because he refused to be sold last season after his injury. You don't need to believe that either.
The truth will come out soon enough.

Can just see the titles:-
Five fail at Hampden
Five at the back please
Five needing sacked
Five points behind
Feel free to add
Apologies to all you avid Enid fans

Saldanha better than dessers? the guy is turning 26 and hasn't even got 100 games under his belt. only time he's really got a game is in the second division of japan haha. Awful banter.

Superb post. Thanks for saving me have to search for Kerrydale Meltdown on X. This has shades of Buzzbomb mixed with Micky Beale’s burner account. At least it gave me a laugh.

I'm sorry "hounded out of Club Brugge"? He won the league twice in a row and a Belgian super cup when he arrived then left for the Monaco job. Definitely not hounded out so we can jot that down as utter pish.

Lundstrum walks into that team on Saturday and, as poor as he is, i’m happy Dessers stayed as we’ve proven time and time again that we replace bad players with worse players.

Wouldn’t suprise me to see him get an extension.
Likely a year if that means he retains a sell on value rather than walks at the end of a season. PC did say he wanted to do away with players walking away on a free, even if the actual fee we receive for some players is relatively low.

Yes John but that doesn't make any of the rest of that story the rubbish it is. Sounds like at best Jorge has listened to the story from someone who doesn't like Clement; at worst he has looked at things that happen and put the poorest spin on it.

Totally agree angus
Barisic never offered a new deal, lundstrum deal taken off table in the March.

Lundstram? loose one Lundstram? slow of body and mind Lundstram. NAW now shoosh . But we could use 11 slow players and confuse the opposition, let's get canny score Shankland as well then. Hard work on here quite often.
