how could derby find out about a buy out clause?

"We were not informed of Derby's interest until late on Wednesday evening and the next day we received an offer at exactly the level of Robert's buy-out clause, which is disappointing and somewhat ironic."

Seems to me that someone has been talking to clubs before being given permission, and this is what doncaster is suggesting.

Shame on you Robert (but good luck anyway).

Personally I think the squad looks much weaker than it did this morning, but we've got a bunch of cash to spend.
