biggordy 0 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Isn't refreshing in these days of financial uncertainty that a club, albeit A.C. Milan, can turn down money for a player. What a well run club ! Who would have thought the management of a football club would listen to the supporters when it came to flogging off an important player half way through a season while challenging for Champions' League place. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have thought the management of a football club would listen to the supporters when it came to flogging off an important player half way through a season while challenging for Champions' League place. As Spliff says, it may not be done yet but it does look like Milan supporters exerted a great deal of pressure on the club and player alike. Some fans are harder to ignore than others. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club didn't turn down money - it was apparently Kaka himself. Think the money men at the club were already seeing pound signs. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggordy 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 ASL Who's running A.C. ? The players or the management. Mind you it was indeed Boyd who refused terms. Does this mean if a player doesn't want to leave and is he under contract then he doesn't have to. If this is the case then no-one has to leave if they don't want to go. Therefore a question of Club loyalty. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore a question of Club loyalty. Yes it does. The player has a contract and is entitled to stay at the club even if they want to sell him. He may be shunned or refused 1st team games but he can stay if he likes whilst under contract. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said: "I can understand why Kris doesn't want to leave. Not only that, he's well within his rights''. "He signed a contract so make no mistake about that''. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
