The majority of the fee was paid up front. However the trigger point for an additional payment based on appearances has not yet been met and neither, of course , has the further payment due if Hull stay up. So he will be in Hull's books at a cost of around £3m and will be shown as a sale of £3m in Cardiff's books ( the " conditional" further payments are not shown as a profit in a club's books until those conditions are met).
I can't see the club being willing to pay out £3m on a goalie( or any other player for that matter) or Hull being willing to take a big loss on a player they only signed a few months ago, but a loan move may not be out of the question
Reading some Hull fans opinion on their goalkeeping situation.
"Jakupovic earned the right to start - not dissing Marshall, but the Jak is in great form."
"Has to be Jak for me as well; Marshall has been poor and should have lost his place 10 games ago! I am convinced we would have more points by now if he had."
"No Question about it " Jak " is the man to put between the sticks and NOT leaky Marshall."
"Jakupovic is City's #1: based on form, penalty saves and superior communication with his defense."
Why did he leave? Especially to go to some northern backwater. Guess he gets to watch the rest of the season from the bench now... well, until McGregor fully recovers from his back operation and then Marshall can watch from the stands as he won't make the match day squad.
Why would Hull let go of their backup keeper when their plight is in the balance.
Should anything happen to their number 1 they could say goodbye to the premiership purely because they sent their backup goalkeeper on loan.
Maybe Marshall has been told he'll be the backup from herein, but it would be ludicrous for them to let him go at this stage of the season, both on loan and for a significantly reduced amount.
My interpretation of this is Mrs Marshall clearly wears the trousers in that household.
It's a pretty irresponsible tweet otherwise.
It would make sense why he stayed with us as long as he did too.
I'm sure if we wanted to, we could buy promotion from the division to the Prem.
Money isn't the problem. It's Tan's envolvement that is the problem.
My thought is that if he now has a team he can trust, perhaps the risk/reward balance would swing a little in favour of spending more for promotion next season then selling up. I know I'd hate us too if I was in Tan's shoes.
That's not what I said. Warnock has been saying almost since the day he arrived that he will have to wheel and deal in the January window and has given us plenty of warning that he may have to sell players he wants to keep if we are going to be able to bring in the ones he wants.
Granted, that's going to be a tough ask, because, unlike most of our Championship rivals who finance their transfer business through player sales, we've lost the knack of signing players and developing them to a level where they can be sold for a healthy profit and we have an Academy that has stopped producing first team players, let alone the Ramseys, Gunters or Jeromes that were sold for seven figure sums.
As for Marshall, I'm not saying we should sign him now (it looks like there's no chance of that happening anyway judging by Mrs Marshall's latest tweet on the subject), but, with Hull still owing us money for him, there might have been scope for a loan until the end of the season, with, possibly, a permanent deal being done in the summer.
Bob, I would not take much notice of her latest tweet, as that is in reply to the stick she is getting from Hull fans, I would be more inclined to believe her first tweet. I think there is more to this than a rumor!
It is possible that the lady in question knew she would be kicking up a rumpus with her tweeting - for whatever reason / possible outcome.
I'm not sure that seeking to quell the rumpus by then using the phrase 'homesick' would exactly soothe any Hull fans who were already braying about her previous salvo. ;)
How did society function before we had (bloody) Twitter eh?!
Can't blame her really. She's living in Hull ffs
Warnock just said on Radio Wales he's looking on bringing a Prem
keeper in on loan and could be sorted by end of the week.
I bet she's having a laugh now.
She cast a line and a lot bit.
