The negotiations would have gone like this -

The conversation between Dejan and McNally
DMc Do you fancy a year of training with the youth team and no first team football?
DS No but if you pay up my contract I?ll go.
DMc No chance. You can have a weeks money in lieu and we?ll let you keep your sponsored call till Christmas, but you have to pay for the petrol. And we know it?s one of your last seasons as a pro, so not playing at all this season means that getting a club next season will be even more difficult. Ha!
DS Ok, let?s do a deal.
DMc So ?18,000 x 1 is ???

And how the conversation would have gone between Dejan and Neil Doncaster
Neil D We?re terribly sorry but you are too expensive and I?m afraid we?re going to have to let you go. But thanks awfully for the twelve games, the one red card, and the two other times you could well have been sent off.
DS If you pay up my contract I?ll go
Neil D Ok, what ?18,000 x 30?
