£10m for Ulloa!!!! **Official that Leo has gone**

[Peter Grummit]

It's for contracts like these that parachute payments exist. It's not improbable that Leicester will come straight back down next season, but they will still have to pay 2m (+2m annual contract amortisation) to the same player that we were paying 500k a year for.

So that's 4m (per year) on a single player out of the 18m that people are saying shouldn't be counted in relegated sides FFP calculations. I'm sure most fans would change their tune about the unfairness of it all if we were in the same position as Leicester and having to lure new players to the squad to make us competitive at PL level.

Although if it is £37k per week then there may well be a relegation clause that reduces that significantly

*sigh* even though we've known for ages and had time to assimilate the news, that still hurt.

Good luck, Leo and thanks...

All the best on your move to Leicester city Leo Ulloa and thanks for some great memories and there were a few.

Forest goal?

Hattrick against Udders?

Double against the scum?

Warren Aspinall must be dreading whoever comes in to replace Uzea.

Unless it's a proper Englishman like Emily Hoskins.

 

[Daffy Duck]

I knew it was coming but I feel rather sad now.

I hope he's a big success for them and wish him all the best. Thanks for the memories, Leo.

 

[Munkfish]

Good I ****ing hated that stupid little soul patch.

I think the Leicester fans will be disapointed with what they have got for 8 million.

finally I think we got something like a faiir price for a players, lets hope we can now go and replace him.

I wonder what Ulloa will think of Leicester, not the club but the area as a whole. Probably trippled his wages going up there, but I think he will miss Brighton and the local area.

It still hits hard. I'm sad he's left, but the 8 million pounds+ we got for him easily makes up for it.

Now to reinvest, let's hopefully bring some quality in.

That's a bit of a tearjerker for me. I hate to say goodbye.

There are 3 Nandos in Leicester.

Time to move on now....



I firmly believe that this will prove, in time, to be a TB masterdeal.

 

[WATFORD zero]

Why are people taking this £37k a week figure as fact?

One bloke said on here he'd heard that figure talking to a mate...

OI ! It wasn't one bloke talking to a mate

It was me, and i don't have any mates

 

[Guinness Boy]

Sad that he's gone. Very sad. Then I watched that goal again. Then I tried to imagine what £8 million looked like on a bank statement. Not so sad now.

 

[fat old seagull]

Sorry to sound negative but how much of that do you think will be put back into the squad?

I suspect you are a child, you inevitably post with an apology for sounding negative, when clearly it's what turns you on...a bit weird I'd say.

 

[MattBackHome]

Brilliant stuff all round.

Much more than expected, a boost to our summer funds, a massive fillip towards FFP and timely and sensible progression for him.

Farewell Leo; I will always remember THAT moment.

 

[WATFORD zero]

Good bye and Good luck
