Farrelli Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 23 minutes ago, Dr. Feelgood said: tbf to Anelka, he signed a new contract with us when he could have just sat it out. That meant we got money we would not have 6 months later. Cahill, seriously, who could blame him ? That is why I said we were stuffed with Cahill. I mentioned other transfers we should have done better with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Casino Posted January 5 Moderators Share Posted January 5 anybody using either cahill or anelka as examples of poor transfer dealing really doesnt get how it works i would say that if we were really offered 18 million 6 months earlier, that was the fuck up plus spunking the proceeds as we did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweep Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 3 minutes ago, gonzo said: We got £9.5 million for Gary Madine and Zach Clough. £9.5 million. It's great isn't it. The Madine one I'll never understand. Clough, at the time, people thought we'd undersold him, it turns out we did very well on the deal, as it turns out, the "promise" was just that, as his career just petered out. He's probably got a decent life playing Sunday League in Australia now though, so fair play to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hargreaves said we’d never sell for that in March then come June he went. The Madine one probably covers all the bad ones though as apart from 4 weeks I’d of took £80k for him let alone £8ml. Just a shame it went to ww hero Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was an absolute shyster and after flipping a club in distress and making himself as much as he could. In the end he stopped paying bills and covering losses as the ship began to sink. Think people forget the two seasons where the bills were getting paid and we had to beg steal and borrow to survive whilesaddled with HMRC bills and wonga loans.
