Fatty gone

[Mrjardine]

We made ten million? How is that possible given the overall fee to Spurs was £16m? We didn't sell him (according to reports everywhere) for £26m. People are still assuming his cost was £10.5m to us, but it wasn't. The reason the deal took so long was because Levy wanted the £16m back on him and they got it, just not in initial fee.

So we got towards 24m for him we paid up to 16m so it's not a kick in arse off. You're hairsplitting here for some reason. He was good for us, we made a healthy profit. If only we could say that about more.

Would've been thin if he'd played etc etc

Forced to eat burgers instead of doing training. Cheers Moyes.

I've read quite a few posters on here say that he could have been a legend if he'd stayed here and TBH I think they're right. That's another reason so many dislike him. The grass is always greener and he was a mercenary kissing the badge while trying to leave, even Turkey ffs.
Bent made the wrong choice and I have absolutely no doubt he knows that now.

Agreed.

Greedy sod, a huge factor on our premier league development, those 2 seasons were pivotal.

The more I hear of Moyes' training methods, the more appalled I become.

Can't fault him.

 

[Chewit]

If he has where will he be off to ?

Us....unfinished business. Wigan was a misunderstanding. He's not a Geordie, he knows his dad and he's lost a lot of weight
what's not to like?

We may have got towards 24m for him. Initial fee was 18m. We don't know - you're stating we've made 100% or 10m profit without actually knowing that we have.

I think that's the point.

I said the 100% point was wrong but it's not unreasonable to suggest a 10m or near enough profit. As I've said my point is that we got a great 18 month from him then made a healthy profit yet he's a hate figure which is ridiculous given the absolute shite we've had through the doors over last 10 year!
