Marcus Evans must be thanking his lucky stars for Mick McCarthy 13:43 - Aug 2 with 1557 viewsitfcjoe

Even this summer, after he has gone...

Adam Webster - £2m sell on fee
Tyrone Mings - £1.8m sell on fee
Kieffer Moore - £350k sell on fee

Makes it even sillier that we still employ Dave Bowman, who worked with mick to get these players over the line, and he was totally sidelined by Paul Hurst and is by Paul lambert too.

We've got a hell of a recruitment guy we are paying a wage too, and we aren't using him.

The banter era continues

Matt Clarke got us a huge sell on too, although I appreciate that's not down to McCarthy / Bowman signing him.

£350k? The sell on was 20%?

I think Forest Green are due a cut of that as well.

Truly impaired.

Yep, I thought if I put him in someone would call it out - but negotiated a decent sell on there

Let's not forget that it is Evans who negotiates the sell-on clauses.

He must be thanking his lucky stars that Mick has reduced his deficit from £9m to £4.1m (if you include the Clarke cut).

with respect, how hard would it have been to get the Mings deal over the line? From non-league to the Championship and quadrupling his wage. Not exactly a tough sell, I'd imagine.

Lucan always advises me that it's Russel Osman that we need to thank for this deal and deffo not Mick.

Funny, I've never even hear Osman mention it before.

He's having a TWTD sabbatical presently but give him a wave as he still lurks

We're all off to Underworld in Amsterdam in November. I fear for my liver, heart & all other internal organs plus external ones too.

Russell has mentioned it on twitter a few times, yes! Not bitter at all. Think he was after some kind of finders fee.

Russell Osman’s pretty keen himself to let everyone know he should be receiving plenty of gratitude for Mings.

whenever Lucan is away for a bit I always he's assume he's into some kind of mad drug-fueled adventure, getting chased by unsavoury types and getting into other assorted shenanigans.

Lucan is Lucan.

I met up with him the other Friday in Norwich for the Johhny Marr gig and he was in good form and was having a beer with one of the Norwich old lads.

It's the talent spotting there, and getting the deal over the line.

Mick and/or his staff certainly dug up some gems for us. Few stinkers too but which manager hasn't? He was able to attract a much (much much) higher class of loan player too. Lawrence, Fraser, Celina... all quality. Maitland-Niles you could even include in that list.

Now we're signing Lincoln reserves on six-month deals. Yes, there are suspension/injury reasons for that but still.

Getting back to your original point... are we saying Bowman is still employed by the club but is effectively on gardening leave?

Do we know if Bowmans contract has been renewed? I could've sworn Phil said his deal was up this summer, unless I was dreaming it?

I don't think he is on gardening leave, but he's not really got any say any more and his targets aren't being progressed; as they weren't last season

His contract was up at the end of June. No idea if there’s now a less formal arrangement in place but I expect there is.
