Complete rubbish, I'm afraid. He may well be more than that now he has signed a brand new contract (I didn't know he had, I was mistaken) but your assertion that just because he is on the books of a Championship club means he must be on at least £4k is rubbish.

"I agree. It's a point of commercial principle, that is their risk to manage.... " "*haha* we must meet up for a coffee or a beer soon. Let me know when you're going to be in town."

We don't have many players we signed from non-league on their first professional contract though do we? He had a one year extension to a contract he signed when he was a teenager playing at Tooting. He'll be on about £1k a week.

That doesn't follow at all.

Exactly, for £100k he's worth having around. We only have one out and out right winger (and he thinks of himself as a central midfielder).

Why is everyone using their own mobile? You should always use your employer's phones for things like this! (Unless you are in the public sector, thanks.)

I don't do either. I dictate and get someone else to do the boring work. So stick that up your arses, you plebs. (Apart from this. I typed this post.)

Agree.

I doubt he's on anything like £5k per week.

Doubt it because until you actually start the course you're not actually a student and there's no guarantee you will do the course. (And most people who are not students but are about to be would qualify for the Young Adult concession already). But maybe.

I don't think anyone's saying he is better than what we have but if he was very cheap he would be an ok option when we wanted to give Chamberlain a rest. This assumes we will play with a right "winger" though. We may well play some different shapes IMO.

Apologies, I think you're right.

Ah, I assumed you can. I haven't checked.

Do it online tonight?

I wouldn't be interested in paying proper money for him but if Reading were willing to get rid of him for £100k-200k he would be worth having as an impact/squad player.

PMSL!! :lol:

I think that may have been a bit of hyperbole to illustrate the mind of many footy fans. His points on marketing are correct though and boil down to the simple fact that the club is far better placed to judge the relative merits of certain forms of marketing than we are, what with the club having all the relevant information and us having very little information.

I give a bird a greenpiece oncse. Lolzzz!!111

Someone with a brain!! Hallelujah!

I'd be surprised if Villa were willing to loan him out at this stage, having just sold Young and Downing. Would be a decent signing though, I would've thought. But is he better than Johnno Quick?

Or, he has a sense of humour.

To avoid giving your own? You tight ****.

I've seen that before. It's mental (not literally, it's just muscley).

Gotcha! Blimey, that's just reminded me of Saturday evenings at grandma's and Noel's House Party on the tele.
