Can't play again for Bolton this season as we won't defer £100k payment - bit harsh?

Deferred payment is better than no payment, I'm sure that we'll work something out.

I know it seems harsh on the lad, but this isn't the fault of LFC and nor can the club really set a precedent "oh, bit hard up? Sure, never mind the money you owe us..."

It's not harsh, its literally Enriques wages for a week, we are harsh bastards and should look after one of our own. I'd like to think the club would allow a local lad who came through the ranks to play week in week out, punishing one of our own over pennies is woeful.

They can afford it now though, they've banged on they've got plenty of funds to cover the club going forward. If they can't afford £100k then the fans should be worried about what sort of bullshit these new owners are saying.

The new owners are trying to play a fast one to get the amount lowered by us, that's all it is, and we're not buying it.

Didn't this happen before the new owners too though? We could've stepped in then.

I'm not sure, this is the first I've heard of it.

They clearly paid it previously, or we have deferred it once or twice already, as he played up until last week.

It's a clause that comes in after a certain number of appearances apparently, so it would not have applied until he hit the match limit. They agreed to it when they signed him, so it's not our problem, really. It's between Jay and his club. We don't go round handing out six figure sums to all and sundry just for the hell of it.

Yeah that's how I thought it was, so with the new owners there is no reason they don't pay up if they've got the funds, which they've been saying over and over they have.

Spearing is still getting paid, his employers are the ones deciding they don't think he's good enough to pay £100k for. That's not our problem.

Jay Spearing has been told he can find a new club and Bolton are looking to loan him out for the rest of the season to save on his salary.  Bolton are going to be relegated from the Championship to League One and want to conserve their cash.

http://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/14353332.Jay_Spearing_set_for_Wanderers_exit/

Commenters are saying he's being paid £17k a week.

And there is the real reason behind all this, Bolton were just trying to pull a fast one on us and imagine had no intention to ever pay that money.

I don't get how Bolton can't afford it right now considering they've just been taken over. Surely the new owners have money? It'd be the most pointless takeover if they don't.

There is also the possibility that they don't see him a long-term asset, so why bother to pay £100,000 more to a player who will likely be gone next season, especially one who has hardly been used in the latter half of the season: partly due to finances, but also because Neil Lennon didn't view Spearing as fitting into his style of play.

I think the term expired at the end of last season, he can play this season without them having to find 100k for us. That money could have broke them again ?

Nice of Jay to drop in our friendly with Bradford to support his former teammate Darby.

They're best mates, according to Spearing's twitter  https://twitter.com/Jay8Spearing/status/1150336308130324480

I think that's Stephen Warnock who entered the stadium with him.

Get ready to take his name off this part of the Forum because he is due to re-join Liverpool according to Chris Bascombe.



Looks to be used only as a U23 player whilst he gets his coaching badges but can technically be used in the first team.

Doesn't he look a bit too young to play in the U23s?

Yeah. Imperfect but showed some signs of promise. Spearing obviously a level or two below Liverpool quality, but great he’s had this second go in his new capacity.
