How Are We Financing New Signings????

[The Large One]

why would that be?

just wondering why you picked out hart as opposed to mayo, butters, reid and our 4 signings as people who would be 'f***ed off' at their wages being speculated about?

Because he said so.

Mind you, Race isn't too happy about it either.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

what 4 signings?

 

[Mendoza]

what 4 signings?

Hawkins
McLeod
Virgo
Livermore




Unless they mean Luca Modric, Santos, Jo or Deco

 

[Publius Ovidius]

erm who is Hawkins? is he the irish bloke?

 

[Braders]

erm who is Hawkins? is he the irish bloke?

the lad we signed from Coventry Dave

 

[Mendoza]

erm who is Hawkins? is he the irish bloke?

Yes, central defender from Coventry

Also Hernan Crespo has just been released on a free by Chelsea
Could do a job

 

[Publius Ovidius]

so who is mcleod then?

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

[Braders]

so who is mcleod then?

the bloke we signed from Colchester

 

[king Wombat]

because we released 10 players, sold Hammond for £250k, Revell for £150k, Elder for £25k, People on the board alledgedly given us money to sign Murray as a "gift"

Plus all the other people we sold without ever spending any money on replacements ie. Currie £250k, Cullip £250k, Virgo £1.5million, Zamora £1.5million, Knight £125k, Henderson £150k, Kazim-Richards £150k,Harding £400k money from Spurs and West Ham away in the FA Cup, £150k from Alive & Kicking appeal, £200k for Kazim-Richards sell on clause

a good dose of that money was used to keep the club going - remember the fact that we lose 2.5 million a year??

 

[Publius Ovidius]

the bloke we signed from Colchester

word

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

What a ridiculous thing to say, unless you know WHY it fucks Hart off. Is it because he's been paid less than other players? Is it because he thinks he was worth more? Is he on less than the minimum wage? Does he earn less than the national average? Or does he simply think he deserved parity with certain others?

Surely the fact that he was here for ten years means Hart must have been on something fairly decent. I haven't a clue what it is, and I know albion wages don't set players up for life, but to object to the idea that the money saved on Hart, Mayo, Reid, and Butters would be anything but substantial by our standards is wrong. That money alone has probably paid for at least two or three of the four new signings.

Post 21.
Some people don't like others publicly speculating about how much they earn; understandable surely?

You do come out with them sometimes. It's not a ridiculous thing to say, although it is ridiculous that you think it's ridiculous.

Why it fucks Harty off is not anyone's business. I'm just telling you it does.
