The great Vicente saga - 2012 edition [All quite exciting in the end]

[skipper734]

If He has any thing to do with going back on his word to Gus, He's gone. Gus quite rightly appears to attach a lot to players desire to play on the Gus Bus. Gus has loads of previous on this.

Amazing. Vicente CERTAINLY was not on £30k a week!

In fact, he wasn't even the 3rd highest earner in our squad last season.

I have no idea what his second year wage is though.

I would agree with this, my sources told me he was on a suprisingly low wage.
Now he is fit.... no doubt he will command more.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

I think it may be as simple as the family and the weather, I remember when he signed, we had bad windy rainy weather that didn't seem to stop for weeks, we then had a grey winter and more shitting rain in march April may.... don't underestimate what that does to people used to mild southern Spanish climate..... !

You didn't mention the away games up north , at least 3°C colder than down in Brighton. Gloomy and dismal. His final appearance of the season at Barnsley , a 12.30 kick-off , intermittent driving rain , overcast and so dreary they had to put the floodlights on at 12.15 may have been the final nail in the coffin.

so true hans,people on here saying we are paying that,then 20 grand to cms,total bollocks im afraid.

The credible source who told me 27k for vicente said CMS on 22.5k - not that any of this bothers me - anybodies wage is a between them and thier employer. Simply saying what was repeated to me by someone who "could" know.

 

[albionalex]

I can't see CMS being on over 15k a week.

 

[Medwayseagull]

Can't somebody just hack into the Albion payroll system and stop all this speculation ?

Ummmm....

 

[peterward]

worried they might unearth a few illicit hush money payments to a secret account in Bristol?

I was accused of posting "NSC gold" for this:

I heard from someone (a former youth player, who is good mates with some of the current squad as they played together) that CMS is on roughly £30k per week once all of his extras are taken into account. This wasn't pub talk (well, it wasn't in a pub!) and he had no obvious reason to lie to me. I still don't believe it though and would actually be a bit disappointed if it was true.

For what it's worth, I stand by my comments about not believing it & being slightly disappointed if it were true, but there do seem to be more & more rumours stacking up... (maybe just a consequence of there being just A LOT more rumours in general!)

so after all this speculation on money players are on........is vicente still with us ?

 

[BHAFC_AMEX]

so after all this speculation on money players are on........is vicente still with us ?

Yes. This is the way I look at it.

1) April 2012: Vicente says he is happy to stay.
2) April-June: We know they were discussing a brand new deal which shows he still wanted to stay.
3) BHAFC book his flights home from Spain with the nearest available being next monday which is after he becomes a free agent.
4) BHAFC exercise the option on his contract so that he is still our player.
5) Vicente's agent stirs it up by saying Vicente is unhappy and other clubs are interested so that we offer him more (which he now deserves in my opinion assuming he wasn't on 30k a week).
6) Vicente returns on Monday to resume the new contract talks with a higher wage.

Glass half full.

This is Brighton in mid summer. Nuff said.

We will all know what's happened very very sooooooooooooooooooon. Brace yourselves boys,girls and those who are not sure which sex you are.

 

[imissworthing2]

Fook me 30k here and 25k there, that is unreal. We really shouldnt have a problem attracting class "gem" players if these sort of wages are on offer. Bobby would exept 30k, wouldnt he?

*cough* Calderon to Southampton *cough*

You should take something for that.

I'm seriously thinking of getting a shirt with VINCENTELOT on the back. Oh, hang on, I don't wear replica shirts.

If he does go, let's take it out on Barnsley at our first home game of the season. It's all their fault.

My god, do people still say stuff like this and think it's funny. The old "ladies, gentlemen and those undecided" was trotted out in the early 80's and wasn't funny then

 

[BensGrandad]

so after all this speculation on money players are on........is vicente still with us ?

He is until the club decide to allow him to leave for another club, if that is his wish .

Is it not Cardiff 1st at home?
