Classy statement from Adi. They key is issued through his solicitor. Don't think we have heard the last of this. Adi is 57. Will he retire or continue what has been a constant very, very successful coaching career. Just as an aside (and certainly no indication of future performance), I gather...

Binks was on a high wage in Italy I gather. However 30k is well outside our wage structure and unsustainable. Maybe a signing on fee and then a top earner.

Is that Eccles (with a lot of minutes) who according to some is shit and shouldn't be anywhere near the team.

O'Hare who has been absolutely brilliant for us on and off the pitch is suddenly poor compared to the new players we have not properly seen play yet? MR wanted to keep him and we offered our highest wage within the structure we are prepared to authorise. Cal would have been really made aware...

Back in the day I was ITK, but sadly not now. I assure you he went because they could not tell him what to do.

I hope that's not the case, although Clough did fall out with Taylor. Surprised if MR has that power with King in charge. I await further information.

Really hope so

Agreed, be interesting if it ends up at an employment tribunal, but probably a paying up of contract may happen.. However, these things have a habit of leaking further down the line. There were some very strong rumours that came out some time later about Richardson's non disclosure agreement...

Wilson is an inch higher with his hair ungelled. Bring back the ballet I feel. What happened to the head and foot volleyball?

I think we have more chance of money from Gus than Vik. Gus's stats are good, although they want £25 million for him. Would you pay 100 million euros for a player who like Vik who has just had an operation? Unlikely.

Mortimer in his early years with us could not hit a shot on target. He was a danger to fans in the Spion Kop. Blair, I agree was a class footballer but never quite reached the heights of Mortimer, who just got better and better.

There is absolutely no evidence that Adi left the building because of the new lady at the club. There is no evidence at all because it appears the club has shut down all avenues of communication regarding this matter, which is a worrying trend, as that is how despots operate. Leave a vacumn and...

Absolutely, Yorath was a real hard midfielder who took no prisoners. Tom to my mind was the best player ever to pull on our shirt. Stein was a fan favourite and always let the opposition know he was there.

I suspect they want too much for Burrows. Their owner said several Championship teams were interested but surprised Coventry didn't put in a bid. I would guess they are asking 4 to 5 million even though he has only one year on his contract. He was League 1 player of the season.

Then Yorath was shipped out as he had too much influence in the dressing room.

He reminds me of Mortimer before he went to the Villa and we know how that turned out.

I can see why we have been linked with some of the older players in midfield and at the back this season, as we have lost so many characters. The only real senior player left apart from Wilson is Bidwell. We have had a great team spirit since MR returned. That 3-3 draw with Portsmouth was one of...

I really hope Sheaf stays. But, every player has his price and I believe we have put quite a high price on him. If it is met by a Prem team, he leaves, simple as that. They do pay stupid money for players these days, so we will have to wait and see.

Too young, they wouldn't let him in.

Thought we had moved up the table to just below the half way mark last I read, after being in the bottom three for the previous two seasons. HW, Simms, MVE, Palmer and JDS were either already on high wages or in MVEs case along with the ex-Barnsley boys had a substantial pay rise. A few players...
