My view - They trigger the release fee, Bennett wants to stay, but has to go through the motions, tells his agent if they offer silly money he'll think about it, they don't, he stays.

I guess. I mean I'm happy in my job and not looking to move, so if a headhunter came after me, I'd probably say I'm not interested, but if they offer me X .... Headhunters, greedy feckers like agents would no doubt take that to the potential employer. If someone's mug enough to offer me £30k a week, well that's a nice problem to have.
Fulham say "Come to us Joe, we're a bigger club than the City, we'll finish above them, we've got better fans, a better ground and you'll be in the Premier Division with us way before you would with Cardiff". Joe says "Pay me thirty odd grand a week", Fulham say, "You're in cloud cuckoo land son", Joe replies, " Well you frigging started it".
There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes I always felt that Joe didn't want to leave. His tweet says it all ' rumours of me leaving are false and so are other rumours I am happy at the club' so do one Fulham and thank you Joe. This season is going to be a special one.
If it meant we'd be in the market looking for a good replacement then I'm all for it. Bennett is just Malone mk2 (that's really not a compliment).
