It may or may not have been Devine, but it was definitely 100% Donley, unfortunately.That was devine wasn't it? Not donley.

Devine was confirmedThat was devine wasn't it? Not donley.
The clause was confirmed.The couldn’t afford the £6m
I don’t think the clause was ever actually confirmed either but I haven’t checked
And of course the player has to accept anything
They turnover £8m and lose money on thatThe clause was confirmed.
Sure, they could not afford £6m in one payment over the summer, but these days most deals are paid over the length of the contract. £6m over 4-5 years is a deal that can easily be done when you can flip him.
MaybeYes, Devine has a £6m contract but you have to put that into context, with PNE's biggest ever transfer being £2.1m. They are 17th in the Championship. Devine has only 1 year left on his existing contract with Spurs and I have a feeling he will be in no way interested in signing another contract. He will be totally disenfranchised with our club at this point and as a lad from He'll just want any move in the summer. I doubt he'll even stick around if we get relegated.
As for Donley, it's probably not too dissimilar but he has at least been at the club since 2013 when he was a kid. He might have some proper Spurs blood in him and see it as an opportunity to get established. Oxford's biggest transfer is about half a million. No chance they're buying him either.
These 2 lads will want to get out of the mad house ASAP in my opinion.
Playing him at left back, and therein lies the rub.Maybe
That could happen
And if it does good luck to them
Just don’t see it being through the release clauses agreed
Devine for sure IMO could and should have been given more opportunities here
donley has time too… I mean we did have Ange okaying him left back not that long ago
YepPlaying him at left back, and therein lies the rub.
