We're literally bigger than Swansea, Hull and Preston combined.

I know they can guarantee Charles Championship football, but id be shocked if Charles would even consider leaving being our main man, at a huge football club with a huge potential and infrastructure. We're also 2 points of the top with a game in hand.

That's some claim. On what level are we bigger than those 3 combined?

Hi Dion, we can see you’re on £7k* a week at Bolton, we’d like to offer you £20k* a week on a 4 year contract. We know that you’re the main man at a huge football club with potential and infrastructure but hopefully you can see the benefit in our offer.

… WHERE DO I SIGN!!?

*all figures are completely made up but the point stands that money would talk over anything else

Youd have us down as being traditionally bigger than Brentford and Bournemouth.

But they have more money.

And so do those 3 :)

It'll all go full circle and in a few years clubs like Bournemouth, Brentford, Swansea and Hull won't be given a 2nd thought, the last time we were coming up the hill boys, i don't remember them clubs sniffing around Stubbs, Tommo, McAteer etc.

Completely irrelevant - They will likely double or treble his wages....and at his age it will likely be his last big contract.

Don't know about the others finances but Hull are owned by a Turkish media mogul

They aren't short of cash 

They are around the play offs in the championship 

At this moment in time it's a step up for him regardless of whether we are the bigger club or not

Fascinating how some seem to know how much our players earn and how much they could earn elsewhere.

Lost of info available all over the net, to be able to make a good guess that he would get a pay rise.....

You are speaking from your heart. Football is about money and they all have more than us and are a division higher.  The rest isn’t relevant.

Depends if they're willing to pay him more money - and it could be his last move that will earn him a larger wage. Don't buy into all this bollocks about which clubs are bigger. It's all about who will pay the higher wages these days (see Sarcevic the other year)

If that was the case, I doubt she'd be satisfied with a move to Preston.

He might drive around the block a few times before they land at their new pad.

We've won pretty much the same amount of trophies as all of them combined and spent more years(73) than them 3 clubs(60) together in the top flight.

We're also sponsored by Carrs Pasties, that is a pulling power those other clubs just don't have.

Dion would be stupid to leave behind such a benefit.

Because we are absolutely massive 

I agree we are massive (everywhere we go), but that is not proof that our comparative mass is greater than the mass of Hull, Swansea and Preston combined.

We can all guess a player moving up a division is likely to get a pay rise.

Don't need the Internet for that.

The actual details are somewhat different.

Nice history, but most players won't even remember us playing in the prem, and none were born last time we won a major trophy. Same for fans actually. 

We need more than that to keep our best players at the club.

That said, I'd be a bit disappointed if anyone left for a club not likely to be pushing for at least a play off place in the championship. We have every chance of being there next season, with a manager, owners and the club on the whole on the up.

Short memories some people. Less than 12 months since we won the "Pizza". When does the European Pizza League start?

We are massive.
