Seb Carole - Owed a Few Quid

[Skaville]

Open to fixtures, but according to an extra panel in the print version of this article in the Guardian today, Leeds owe Seb Carole £504,352.

Not bad for a season with the club, 8 starts and 10 substitute appearances. No wonder he left! Will Leeds ever learn?

Any chance we could have him back?

 

[Skaville]

What?!

So even if they haven't paid him a PENNY all season, £504k means his contract was worth £10k a week. Why would they offer that to a player from Brighton? What incredible stupidity!

I guess you have to factor in a signing on fee as well, but I couldn't believe it when I saw it. It's not as if Carole was a proven player. Idiocy still seems rife at Elland Road.

£504k in a year to be a bit part player in a relegated Championship side. Oh to be a footballer! I bet you're rolling in it Race!

 

[Starry]

that is certainly not the figure beside his name on our cva documents.

Jesus H. Christ. I can't find the extras bit, but I am assuming he was paid something at some point, so presumably he was on more than £10k a week.

No wonder he was quick to move on!

Anyone would think that Bates was keen to push Leeds towards administration...

 

[stig]

where is he now?

Could be a misprint then? The Guardian today cleary states "£504,352 to midfielder Sebastien Carole", in an box entitled "Who's owed what". According to them Richard Cresswell is still owed £700k and £216k to Danny Mills.

Good post from DubaiTiger.

"I hope the St John's Ambulance refuse to cover Leeds matches in future until they are paid in full"

a lot of the figures in the press were before deals were done and they agreed to cut off certain things (appearance fees, loyalty bonuses, etc.)

Argh! You have whetted my apetite. Did you remove the rest due to legal restraints? (Digging for a hint).
