Whilst it's with mixed emotions Cahill leaves us I make it that's ?23m for Gudjohnson, Anelka, & Cahill all at the peak of their careers. In an era when Chelsea spend billions I can't help thinking they have had PG over the barrell again!!

My thoughts exactly. Living "darn sarf" I have a fair few chelskea mates - they're very happy with their dealings with us - the cunts

Especially when you consider who they bought for more than the three combined

 

SWP

Shevchenko

Luiz

 

The list is endless, it underlines our piss poor performances in the transfer market. Even the Pie Eaters manage to get a good buck for their shite!!

Gudjohnsen,. it was either sell him for 4 million as no other club had bid for him or keep him and go to the wall

Anelka,. went for the release clause in his contract, we would have got a further 2 million if they had won the champs league

Cahill,. out of contract in 5 months, no club would pay more than 7 million

I make it ?27m

 

?7m for player out of contract and whom we reportedly were offered 8-9m for in summer, quite good I'd say

 

?16m for a player we paid ?8m for who wanted out and wasn't exactly going to let the chance pass him by to move on

 

?4m for gudjohnsen did seem cheap at the time but we were in the championship, skint and he'd never played premier league footy - there's not many championship strikers you'd pay much more for these days

 

We ain't a top club with a lot to offer when someone like Chelsea comes after one of our players

We are genuinely followed by fucking idiots. 23 million for these players has all been more than what we paid. Great business. It amazes me how people always assume we can sell a player for 20 million.

You are very naive in the transfer market.

 

Most clubs make sure that secure a future big fee.

 

For what my opinion is worth, you asked for way too much for Cahill in the first place. ?20 Million, was radiculas.

 

?12 million 12 - 18 months ago would ave been acheivable imo.

?12 million 12 - 18 months ago would ave been acheivable imo.

 

Which makes the ?7m we for for him now even better business, no need to sell him 12-18 months ago, we didn't need or want too

 

I imagine Wenger and all the arsenal fans who presumed he'd go to them for nowt in the summer now wish that perhaps they'd offered the ?12m we wanted in the summer, presuming they wanted him in the first place

Gudjohnsen,. it was either sell him for 4 million as no other club had bid for him or keep him and go to the wall

Anelka,. went for the release clause in his contract, we would have got a further 2 million if they had won the champs league

All you are pointing out there is poor negotiating skills by people on Bolton's board over the years.

In contrast Blackburn got ?15 million for David Bentley who obviously isn't fit to lace Anelka's boots and even the Venkys got ?16 million for Phil Jones who hadn't even played a full season for them.

You are right we are run by complete morons who don't know the first thing bout negotiating. Let's let some of you have a go at it.

If only you'd been there thrashing out the deals with gartside, we'd have for ?20m for Cahill and Anelka would've signed a new 10 year contract on less wages

Anyone who thinks ?23m for these three players at the ages they left us is good must be related to Garty!! As pointed out when Blackburn can get ?15m for Bentley and the pies ?15m for Palicios we have once again been fucked over by a billionaire!!

 

 

?16m for a player we paid ?8m for who wanted out and wasn't exactly going to let the chance pass him by to move on

 

 

 

The Anelka transfer was listed at ?14 million in the club accounts and Gartside himself has said that was the figure.The media mostly report it as ?15 million but I've never seen ?16 million.

Lescott for ?22m is another. I remember Moyes / Everton taking no nonsence from Citeh and not budging on what they wanted.

Or we could have refused to put the Claus in the first place and left him in Turkey!! Which ever way we dress this up other clubs get ?10m plus for average shite players weve let world class players, a very good player and an international leave us for a combined ?23m.

 

I bet Cahill is the lowest valued current England international to move for less than ?8m for over a decade. Well done Garty a player we signed in 2008 for ?5m

Didn't that include add ons that might not have happened?

So what you are saying is we made money out of it then

Didn't that include add ons that might not have happened?

 

That will be the explanation.The money in the accounts wouldn't include what we might get in the future.

I tell you what, let's hold out for ?23m then let him go for free in the Summer.

I would love us to go bust so I didnt have to listen to these cretins anymore

Sorry but I'm inclined to agree with Tipster on this.

 

He should have should for at least ?10 million.

 

Bigger clubs seem able to bully our lot far too easily.

So we all know for sure what the undisclosed fee is now do we?

Ok.

If its ?10 million or above I'll come and dangle my tallywacker through your letterbox with happy new year written down the side.

you can only sell players for big money if people are will to pay big money. Why we never sold him in the summer when they offered less money than we have been offered now i don't know. you cannot sell a player for 10 million + if no club bids that amount for him.

Just like real life; most money wins!

BWFC have a reputation for being pushovers in the transfer market.

 

It's a factor I tell thee.
