Benj's Wages = new signing?

[dpjfox]

Could the money saved with his departure pave the way for a moderate new signing. CL was quoted as saying he wanted people in before the March deadline but needed to get players out first, hopefully Scowy or Dion next.

I doubt it.

But it might go some way to making up for us having to have Blake back, I'm sure we were expecting him to stay at Leeds for more than a month.

It looks like Trev left by mutual consent, which indicates that the contract was terminated and city would not have to carry on paying him. An excelent thing for Trev to do. especially as he has only pocketed
2-3million from city.
Not bad for a crap player

I love the optimism, but it is more likely that we got a discount (small one at that) on the remaining value of the contract at best. So in effect we will still be paying for Benji. :?

benjy wages = de vries & maybury

I imagine if Blake had played well and stayed free of injury then he would have stayed with Leeds until the end of the season on loan or on a free transfer

We actually got a very good dicsount ! so for a "moderate" lump sum we`ve saved ourselves a fortune on the weekly wage bill.

Ay up Mad Biker, Happy new year and that!

Any inside gossip?

 

[Durham Fox]

Thats great news if we got rid of him at a good discount! almost like he was hounded out of the club.

My thoughts entirely

"Almost" !!!

How ever it happened, he can go and be a hero at some forth rate club and live like a lord thanks to city.

 

[Durham Fox]

All the evidence points to big Matty going sooner rather than later on one of these pay off deals. I for one will be sad to see him leave and especially so if he is hounded out like Benj. Surely we could do a deal to keep him on in a coaching capacity? One of worst decisions Taylor made was not to offer Walshy something.

I can think of one or two decisions that were ever-so-slightly worse than that.....

Walsh - good player for us in a sea of mediocrity at the time, and a true LCFC legend, but not someone you would want around in a mangerial/coaching role. He's too disruptive. I used to play pool with him quite regularly and whilst he's good company, he's not someone I would want to be involved in running the club.

So can I, dont know why I said that really. Although Walshy could have had a role at the club, hes LCFC though and through and would have been a superb motivator

 

[DesertFox]

would have been a superb motivator

... if having him screw your missus motivates you, then yes!

To some of us thats the best motivator

 

[DesertFox]

Yeah, I didn't really think that through, did I?
