joewarkfanclub Posted Thursday at 10:45 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 10:45 PM €2m is a decent fee I guess. Be interested to see what the "signing bonus" is? Never heard of that before. Hopefully we now have more players incoming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunate for him that we changed a style that didn't suit, but he was a good fit at Dunfermline and the fans liked him too. Did better than us in the cup, too.

Kmcalpin Posted yesterday at 11:15 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 11:15 AM Ox's move to East End Park has been in the offing for some weeks now. It was certainly held up by Ward's departure to QPR and perhaps by AJ's arrival. Quite rightly we wanted to hang onto him until a replacement, Paulsen, was brought in. Leaks from the Dunfermline end not ours. Given Ox had 2 years left on his contract I would expect a tidy fee, but not earthshattering. Dunfermline seem awash with cash.

It's a sad day when you can't believe 12 year olds on Twitter. (Of course he will likely be leaving us, but like most of our deals the details will not be posted on Facebook).

Fee would certainly help cover a couple of signing on fees for new guys, I'd imagine, which will help balance books a bit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would no doubt have received a decent wedge of cash for getting to the Scottish cup final, in gate receipts, prize money etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted yesterday at 11:25 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 11:25 AM For the sake of argument lets say the Ox was on £2K per week. If the Pars bought out his contract you'd be looking at £400K. I'm not saying we got anywhere near that sum but its likely we cut our losses to reduce our wage bill, and showed Dunfermline some generosity by giving them a bargain.

mio Posted yesterday at 11:53 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 11:53 AM Good big keeper, we’ve had so many worse than him who were our No1s. Good luck to him. Just hope Paulsen is the business. Looking forward to see a few newbies tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunfermline cant afford that kind of money, they lost just under £2 million in their last accounts to May 2025 and are borderline broke. I reckon it will be sub £100,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon it will be sub £100,000 True, but they are another club recently acquired by American owners with shares in multiple clubs and a penchant for data driven management. So they have a few more quid to spend than in previous years. Having said that, I agree a fee of sub 100k is quite likely. Freeing up Ox's wages without having to buy out his contract is a good situation for both parties, and receiving a fee makes it a good deal.
