Hey NB, welcome back to the gloom & doom, trust you are well. As I said previously, our leadership are clearly not bright enough to organise a multi year contract reflecting the division they are playing in. Interestingly a tweet from the club suggests that Bill was offered a 2 year contract but refused to sign it in favour of a 1 year contract. Given that Peters is quoted as saying they looked at signing him last year, Bill's decision to go may well have been made some time ago.
Compensation should definitely be paid to clubs who developed players for the game.
I think the reason he stayed for the one was he had one more year of his London-ish based uni to complete. In other words he did what was best for him. We as fans may get irritated by this type of thing as is our right but the other side of the coin is Horsman, years at the club let go without a word. The fact is when you get players on low/lowish value one year contracts they have a right to play the system as best they can just like anyone else. The thing I find slightly odd is that as a club we don’t seem to get that and get affronted and make it obvious in our public statements we feel that way. It’s tinpot and doesn’t actually achieve anything.
