It's getting all very confusing,so callled people in the know,have been putting it about that we only received £60k,if this report is true we got £300k for him,that's is a lot better considering his contract was out at the end of the season... People just put this crap about to muddy the waters,I wish they shut it and keep their lies to themselves... http://www.bristolcity.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=304676
The club completely denied it was £60k at the time From memory in the evening post it said a 6 figure sum close to the £6/800k we paid for him. Which is bloody good business imo seeing as he has half a year on his contract.
He never really cut it with Millen or Del, he is a good player but he is also a loner. Can't remember think it was Derby when he scored that fantastic goal not one player ran to congratulate him. Shame really as I always liked it when he was in the team.
As a footballer I always thought he was not really given the chance to show what he was capable of. A friend of mine's son knew him from his time in Bournemouth - apparently he was a total ****bag - not my words but his. Still, not really able to give an opinion really myself. We'll have to see how the Cherries do with him back there.
Does his move back to Bournemouth show a total lack of ambition or one step back to go two steps forward in the future? Only time will tell.
