Not seen such Bravery!
It's the policy. I don't believe billionaire Tony wants to give away control and Barber is a tough negotiator as we have seen.
I think Tony simply will not sanction signing up to release clauses, and would rather walk away from the deal ( Livramento ?
).They simply cannot state "no release clauses" and then put them in the odd contract here or there. The policy would collapse.
Yes, great news!

That’s fair, but you could still have a ridiculous clause. I get what you’re saying but in terms of policy, but renegotiation of an existing asset, is slightly different and I don’t get why you’d take the financial hit.
But then equally I’m not a successful businessman and billionaire

I guess he has to make the most of what he’s got seeing as the club can’t find new signings for him that fit with our financial standing.
Hopefully he can now afford a proper jumper, than one is shitehouse.
Does it really matter though... if he had a release fee it would surely be close to the clubs valuation of the player, and if say Real Madrid comes along waving £40m surely the club would say "ok you can go, boy" with or without a release fee in his contract.

Brilliant news, deserved, one of my favourite Albion players.
Looks with Solly & Lewis may be one pro club players.

This makes me happy.

See the match?
So happy for him and us.
We definitely missed him.
Team should be looking even more dangerous when Lamptey is back and/or Cucurella arrives

If Real Madrid had £50m Tony would want to check it was real money given their finances!

Model Pro, he's suffered some nasty injuries and simply got his head down and worked hard everytime to get back into the squad, you never hear anything much about him in the media apart from the usual 7 in the player ratings column.
The team is a better one with Solly in it, well deserved and under Potter looks to be improving his all round game still.

Really pleased for Solly, and it means my 17/18 shirt with MARCH 20 is still current.

Raises the question: in this era of PL teams crammed with overpriced global superstars, how many other clubs have TWO locally-born first-team regulars?
3? Dunk, Webster, March
This is great news though - although does seem to be 1 year light to me? But good news all the same

My first Albion team had Piper and Towner in it. As a kid, it made it that much more special, not sure why … a direct connection to our town, local heroes? The same this time.

Fair point: guess I was thinking locally born and raised!
Depends how much the release fee is. If you put a silly sum the club might get more. Look at Neymar, when PSG triggered the clause, there was no way I would have paid that for him.
Me neither. To be perfectly frank I'm not sure I could afford him.
