craig 5,199 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Sorry that's nonsense. If they had tupe'd over they were assets that could be sold come the first window, somewhere between £20-30m worth far outweighing the cost. CG was desperate to get his hands on that money. The players flapped. Its as simple as that. They never had a single penny missing from their wages. They started talking crap between themselves about losing this and that and believed their own nonsense. Edu and Co ignored the rumours and sat tight and did the best by the club and fans. Naismith and co ran because their agents told them they could get huge signing on bonuses with no transfer fees applicable. The staff had the same concerns without the same deep pockets and stayed true. If CG had wanted rid of anyone it was the staff standing in his way who could bring in revenue not assets worth millions. Green had absolutely no guarantee that whe would be able to get them off the wage bill quick enough before a second admin event. Are we forgetting that he needed a 50k loan from ahmed's mother not long after taking the reins ? Green couldn't afford to take the risk or the club could have went into admin again. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) I would take him because he is a proven goalscorer at top flight and international level and is a far superior player to anything else we have. In 2007 he was the most fouled against player in the group stages of the CL bar none and has amassed great experience since then. At 31 in September he should certainly be good enough for a 2 year deal but based on the sentiments expressed by some on here even if he scored a hat trick every week it's unlikely he would be acceptable to a section of tbe support.

I think you forget that they had all been given cheap releases by greens pals clark and Whitehouse. Always assuming anyone would pay considering the pending firecsale. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
