Saying that I guess there is a chance we weren't playing him because it would have tripped a clause costing us more money.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather than declare another club is interested and getting the club a fee or just leave on a free transfer, he's managed to relieve us several hundred grand or more before signing for them anyway. The Villa circus rolls on. What? I am sure the club knew where he was off to. Do you think we would have got a fee for a 30 year old, with six months left on his contract? A 30 year old who has played maybe 20 games in 4 years? They only gave him a 6 month deal too, so why would they part with a transfer fee? ...and believe me, even if Grasshoppers had offered a small fee we would be paying off his contract regardless, this is how football works.

Dr_Pangloss Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Utterly bizarre situation. Much maligned when he signed but always looked solid to me when he played - strong and no-nonsense. Given we've looked so bad at the back you'd question why someone who never looked bad for us with over 50 international caps, couldn't get a look in, whilst shite like Clark and Richards have had free reign to cause havoc for us at the back. Just very, very weird this. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
