Q. From Stephen Cary

"Given that Norwich City made little or no profit from the sale of Robert Earnshaw (due to his buy-out clause) could you confirm a sell-on clause has been agreed with Derby so the Club can potentially receive additional revenue at a later date?

Neil: "Firstly, profit is only partly relevant - it's mainly about cash. We did in fact make a profit on the sale of Earnshaw. However, more relevantly, we have £3.5m which has been added to Peter's playing budget. Your question about a sell-on clause is a slight red herring in relation to buy-out clauses. These cannot include a sell-on. If the buy-out sum is met, we must accept the offer without negotiation. That was the case in relation to both Dickson and Earnie."
