Members bolty58 Posted February 5, 2009 Members Share Posted February 5, 2009 Did we actually negotiate? Not sure we even put in a bid in anger. Not concerned. Listened to Roy Hodgson the other night and he described Bullards wage demands as 'beyond our means'. If it was beyond Fulhams means with Al Fow Ed running the show, I wouldn't want BWFC even considering it. It appears we may not have and would seem to continue the trend of good business decisions in transfer dealings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 We did negotiate but Bullard wouldn't accept anything less than ?55,000 a week. We didn't agree, simple really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sluffy Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 City boss Phil Brown has played down any rumours that the injury was serious enough to require an operation on his knee, but the player and the club's worst fears have now been realised, with Bullard flying out to Denver to visit the surgeon who operated on the midfielder's knee originally - Dr Richard Steadman. Although the early prognosis is difficult to assess on how long Bullard will be absent from first team duty, City's newest signing will undergo an anthroscopy on Wednesday in the United States to deal with a small tear on his cartilage. http://www.rivals.net/news/pgarticle.aspx?...930620&id=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passmosster Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Glad i dumped him from my dream team, and replaced him with Arteta Dr Richard Steadman. Looks to me like Hull can forget him this season and half of next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules_darby Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Dr Richard Steadman. Looks to me like Hull can forget him this season and half of next. Nah, it's just a slight tear of the cartilage - would normally be 6 weeks, but then you dunno as Bullard's knees have previous. It's cruciate reconstructions that take ages to come back from Jules 2 cruciate reconstructions & 2 cartilage removals to date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idiot Wind Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Bit harsh that methinks And it's highly unusual for them not to know it's an ACL prior to the arthroscopy Yep, you're right - 2 myself. However, they are not saying it isn't ACL by saying he's going for an arthoscopy. They often do that to assess the magnitude of damage. When I had my first one done they did an arthroscopy and discovered that I'd done my ACL, PCL and ruptured my cartilage. All in all, he could well be out for a long time. I hope he isn't, nothing against him and it's a grim injury to come back from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Bernard Mendy, whilst at Hull? I agree though in Bullards case, with his "previous" one would doubt it's a simple op. FWIW i reckon Laursen at Villa will end up in the same boat ie Steadman/Operation/Long period not playing, even though Villa are saying he'll be ok in a month or so.Tricky things these knees, ask Ricardo Gardner Edited February 17, 2009 by Burndens Bogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
