Decent reliable defensive midfielder, would be a good signing.

Probably right but I'm basing it on the idea if both players were prepared to come here on what WE would pay them. I don't doubt Bailey would command more of the two but repoertdely Togwell isn't cheap either despite being lower than Bailey's demands.
Nothing to do with you.:winking:
Don't doubt that. But in our Club's condition it has to be careful about its wage structure. And once again REPORTEDLY Togwell isn't cheap ?
The trouble is if you get a few players on a decent wedge compared to the rest it creates trouble in the dressing room, perhaps that's Ron's master plan it is not a problem because nobody gets paid anyway:winking:
Its a fact of life . No players are gonna be on the exact wage/salary. there will differing in what they ear. If I was in the hot seat one thing I'd say to the players is NEVER discuss what they earn. Now if you'd kindly shift yourself back to your own forum please pal. Good Lad. Bedtime soon hey?
COL EWE only said that becoz he thinks Togwell would be better of at Col Ewe playing in front of a handful of people .:smile:
Ha ha no I don't we have too many already in the 1st team squad, I think we have 10 midfielders at present so we would need to ship a few out 1st!
Ok we receive a transfer fee for Cresswell with Togwell thrown in. if that happens we stilll have to pay Togwell his wages which are reportedly not low. Personally if we were going to pay out another handsome wage I'd have gone For Bailey if we had the choice of him or Togwell available to us through ability alone.
thought that was a good deal for col u, 100k, after all he has never been a regular over the last three seasons but always does well when he plays at roots hall:'(Just out of interest, why was Wordsworth sold so cheap? 100k? I'd be a bit p****d off with that! :stunned:
Just out of interest, why was Wordsworth sold so cheap? 100k? I'd be a bit p****d off with that! :stunned:
It was more than 100K but it was not as much as he would have been worth a year or so ago, he was pretty certain to leave for free when his contract expired because he said he wanted to go, but John Ward kept hold of him because of his value to the team. When Joe Dunne took over he identified players who were not suitable to the way he wanted the team to play (There was also a rumour that certain players were disruptive to the dressing room spirit) so Wordsworth was allowed to leave for around £250K and with that money Henderson and Rose were paid off and left the club. Strange situation all round really but the team spirit is much better in every respect now, Joe has really pulled the club together and I think we will have a good season next year if he can sign a few more players he has in his sights.
With any luck your stadium will get hit by a comet
