I think 20k a week for a top draw keeper, whom would have probably been on treble that at Utd is fair enough. If we get him to sign a four year deal, then that's the keeper sorted out if we were to go up...One of the most important position's on the pitch. If not the most important.
He wants 20k a week and has only been offered 10k talks broke down due to wage demand, that's as far as it is at this stage.

Sorry but where has this 20k come from. Someone made up that Mattock wanted 20k and everyone ran with it. (i very much doubt he is on that)
Would you keep talking to someone who has insulted you, that badly.Are talks ongoing?
Yes. That's the rumour.
All about the wages if 20k is agreed then we have a good keeper.
How do you know we can afford £20k a week? Should we pay it even if we cant?
well mate some people do actually know people pretty close to TB and its polite to keep their names off this board, as a fan I am telling what I have spoken about to a close confidente of TB. BOZZZZZZAAAA!!!!! Back this up fella.!! LolI find all this rumour rubbish hilarious. As if anyone other than TB, some very close confidants, and the player and his agent know anything at all. I'm sure TB wouldnt allow what we had actually offered to leak. And if it was the offer and he reads it here some people would be leaving the club versy shortly.
This site is scraping new lows in people stating pure guesswork as informed rumour.
If it's 20k and that's above our wage structure then fair enough. What's worrying me a bit is how we are comparing with other Champ clubs. Naylor says in his column today that we can't compete with Wednesday and suggests our position in the budget table is going downwards and that we are likely to be lower than Hudds/Charlton ?, I can't see how this can really be the case unless all the others are spending way over their means. Agree totally that we just can't compete with the Prem parachute payments but can't see why we aren't at least matching everyone else now.
well said and agree
I think it should be met,
You pay his wages then if your that keen to have. Why should we overspend on him "if" its 20 k aweek. Rather the extra money went somewhere else.
