    I know another Bent thread but just seen this

    http://www.football.co.uk/sunderland...s1525344.shtml

    Quote:
    love it here, can I stay? Darren Bent came to Sunderland in 2009 signing a 4 year deal, but speaking in a newspaper interview Bent would welcome further contract offers to keep him at the Black Cats even longer. Bent has made himself a legend at the stadium of light only seen by the likes of Niall Quinn and Kevin Phillips, putting rumours of big money deals away from Wearside with recent links to Liverpool to bed. Confessing his love for the life at Sunderland "I can't believe how well it's gone. If the offer of an extension came up I'd be more than happy to sign it. "It's all about the football up here. It's all passion, passion, passion, but the supporters' intensity has never scared me. "They are looking at me to get the goals and that is a massive confidence booster."
    So what changed?

    Knowing what we know now if u read between the lines of that article it's obvious he's saying 1) to our club "I want more money" and 2) to other club's who may be interested "look I'm after more money and I may be available if my contract isn't 'extended'".

    He put his tentacles out for a pay rise.
    We didn't fall for it.
    He took the huff.
    He's off to Villa.

    Kinda like the Don Hutchison deal all over again. I'm sure he did the same and left due to the club refusing to give him a pay increase.

    Harsh on DH. he had a clause saying we'd renegotiate contract at end of the season if we had succesful season. then claimed that it wasnt succesful that year.

    same here.

    Its the way he has done it that is annoying me. Running off down to Brum, when the club have not even accepted the bid.Unless there is a clause in his contract.

    The way he has done it though is upsetting me.He wants dignity buts strips the fans of theirs. Not right
