Someone I know is friends with one of the players. I've no reason to doubt him, its not like he tells me loads of gossip like that, but this was one subject that came up when we spoke about Dickinson moving on.

I heard something similar (4k I think it was), this was meant to be said by an Albion director. He apparently also said that the fee we paid for him was more like 100k, rising to 300k based on appearances, goals etc, than the figure usually bandied about.

Why?
He was absolute rubbish, an insult to those that paid their money to watch.

Good rid. Hardly the 25 goal a season striker we thought he may have been at the start of last season.

Thanks for the reply.
Back in the old days we never really heard things like this, even new signings were usually announced via the Argus or match programme. Its little bits of information like this which makes NSC so valuable, in so much as there are lots of people that know these little bits of information some of which are posted here, giving us a bit more of a clue of whats going on.
From this we can assume that if Dickinson was one of the highest earners at £4.5k it gives us an idea of the clubs wage structure, and what we can expect in the way of transfers in to fit the structure.
Of course it could all be bollocks, but I suppose its up to the individual to decide what he believes and what not to.

It is ridiculous that the 200th best striker(?) in the country can earn more than the Prime Minister.

Its not actually. But ok, whatever.
I had absolutely no reason to make it up, and neither did the chap who told me, so I'm really, genuinely not fussed one way or the other whether you or anyone else believes it or not.

Robins said of his latest capture: "I'm happy to have brought Liam into the football club. "He's only 24 and still has room for improvement and we're looking forward to working with him here. He has a decent scoring record both in the Championship and in the lower leagues 
and will be a good addition to our squad for the new season.

Brighton stats: 31 appearances - 20 starts, 11 subs (league and cup), 6 goals (league and cup).
Career stats: 105 starts, 53 subs (league) , 50 goals (league), that's almost a goal every other start, including his lean period with us. For one reason or another we never saw his best
(just for career completeness: 5 starts, 1 sub in the FA cup for 2 goals; 2 starts, 1 sub in the league cup for 0 goals.)
