Silent_Bob Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 8 hours ago, One For The Road said: Other 38 year olds on betelween £75k and £100k a week? That's the difference. Well, towards FFP it's the amount of money, not how it's spent that matters. To pay £2,5m for a CD isn't that bad. That's what you spend on a £10m player on a four year contract. And then you need to pay the player some money on top of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Is JT becoming the fat sam of football player rather than management? Just wait a few months into the season and someone will be desperate enough to give him a generous contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
privateer Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 It would be fair to say that news won't - or shouldn't - come as a surprise to many. It looked an odd notion from the get-go and once it became apparent he had come back without signing up it seemed very unlikely it would go ahead.

Doesn't manage or organize the team? I know he's supposed to be the one behind the improved team spirit, but I'm starting to suspect he's not the one making the s'mores or leading the sing along around the camp fire. Other than having people skills... Bruce has people skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All true of course, but if he was anything near the player he once was he wouldn't be unattached and there would be scores of clubs lining up to sign him, regardless of his wage demands. He also wouldn't have spent last season with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A season older I would be very concerned relying upon him again for yet another arduous Championship season and I can see why the new owners wouldn’t want to fork out 70 grand per week in wages for that. Was he actually being exposed? I don't recall that at all. In fact, I think our defence was our strongest it's been in years last year. Chester doesn't look the same player without Terry next to him either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT would (to all intent and purposes) take over the running of the team and would bring back the feel good factor that SB has totally lost. Bruce is dragging the team down, and desperately needs a big personality and leader on the training pitch and in the dressing room to save him. Terry, the ageing player is not the issue here. Terry, the big man who Bruce can hide behind is! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talldarkandransome Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I'm assuming if Terry signs then Bruce will be staying. So if he doesn't sign then Bruce will be going. A simplistic fellow I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I’m not suprised he has turned down Russia. If money was his main motivation I reckon he would have moved abroad last season. Staying as close to home as possible is obviously very important to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I hate it when I think moving my family to Russia won't be a big deal. Turns out it's actually quite a long commute away from my kids' school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
