I could well believe a deal has been agreed in principal (Linked back to when he signed a contract with us), but that is a huge amount for a left back with what will be 2 years experience. I would have guessed somewhere around the 15 - 18 million mark. For those that dismiss player sales - "Because we dont have to anymore" are just kidding themselves. We will no doubt play hardball and I think we can trust Cortese, to get the best deal, but when the big four come sniffing for any of our players, it will take a monumental effort and pay rise to keep them..... Especially if they want to go and most of them will.

In between the two matches, the last 5 days might have stung a bit. It wasn't so much the home defeat to Fleetwood or even the away thrashing at York, or indeed confirmation that the 59% ownership, isn't reflected in the boardroom, or even the plans released by Tesco, that don't extend to the harbourdrome being built anytime soon, No! Whilst nutjobs, might harp on about these things and even throw in the odd "We told you so", the bestest are far to plucky and brave to let these trivial things get them down. But they do seem to have been deflated by the news that the table and chairs, that Terry is kindly looking after for them, may not finance their return to the Premiership after all. It just seems, like the world is against them and it really isn't fair.

I remember when Adkins joined us, he said his ocntract was the size of a book and that his old one was only two pages. I don't think the issue here is ambiguity. I am glad it is resolved and I am glad things are going well for him. My understanding of the situation was more a case Cortese challenging historical practices within the game. Typically when a manger leaves and has for example two years left on his contract, he will negociate a sum for which he walks away (Pure guess work, but if a manager had two years left at 5k a week, the total of that would be 260k, he would probably take a lump sum of 140k or so). Cortese played it slightly differently and we were still paying Atkins and were contractually meeting the obligations, but for Adkins to get another job, he would have to quit (And therefore sacrifice his payoff) He then had to launch his legal action to free him up from the deadlock and able to get another job. That is my understanding based on what was reported etc, so i fully accept it could be well off the mark. Nigel earnt every bit of his 500k payoff or whatever amount it was and I think every Saints fan, wishes him well, but I also like the way Cortese seems to question the rules if he can see a different way that has a benefit for Saints. The legal action and subsequent payoff is done. The Adkins chapter is now closed, but not forgotten.
