Moses off t' Wigan

[xenophon]

For £2.5m, just on SSN

 

[The Wizard]

Barcelona, Real Madrid , Chelsea...Wigan Athletic....?

 

[Trigger]

£2½m, Palace have been royally done up like a kipper on that.

 

[Simster]

f***ing splendid news. The jewel in Palace's crown goes for buttons, to little Wigan.

 

[Common as Mook]

What - he didn't go to Real Madrid or Barcelona?? SHOCK.

 

[Barry Izbak]

Wigan may not be Madrid, but its beautiful if Croydon is what you're used to.

 

[Rookie]

Thought they were talking 5 mill the other day, have Wigan got themselves a nice little bargain

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

he was always gonna be better off going to a middle of the road club like wigan and playing regularly than playing for man u/arsenal/chelsea/whoever reserves

 

[Brovion]

Eh? I thought he was supposed to be GOOD?

Wigan? Seriously, I'm surprised.

Have brighton splashed any cash yet?

Remember the transfer window shut's at different times around europe.Brighton's player's are not safe until the Spanish and Italian window's shut.

 

[beorhthelm]

bet Agilo wish they hadnt called in the administrators now.

I think £2.5m is a very full price, especially as it is cash upfront. At the end of the day Wigan have bought a young player with the POTENTIAL to be a Prem star. Nothing more, nothing less. he could yet turn out to be a bargain, or a waste of money.

The £5m that that was bandied about seems to have come from the interest that Man City had. That offer was based on lots of conditions and future instalments based on appearances/goals/England caps and the such like. In other words, if he proves he is worth it, we will pay for him in the future.

For Palace, this was probably the best they could have hoped for, although I am sure they wanted more. When all is said and done, there was no one else prepared to offer a better deal, so £2.5m is what he is worth.

Price was reduced after Crystal Palace entered admin.

 

[sir albion]

Lets hope many more palace players move on

 

[Don Quixote]

2 million?! That Cox fellow went for around that and he was no where near as good. Unlucky palace!

Unlucky
Seems wolves wanted our other top rated youngster nathaniel clyne but although we agreed a fee he would not even talk to them.Absolute hero status guaranteed.
How much cash did Bloom spend

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Palace wont see any of the money anyway , the administrators will set aside £2M for expenses so far and the £500k will go in the pot so that the creditors will feel lucky at getting back 5p in the £.

 

[herbicide]

Nope. We have managed to keep the rest of the squad.

Moses wasn't actually that good, we have been bigging him up. £2.5m is a fantastic price.

If you sold your squad and got 100% of the wonga you would see 5p.

He will splash the cash in the close season.
