I am sure that their new owners can afford to put them up in some crappy 5 star complex, with all the necessary sports facilities to keep them ticking over for a few days.
Anyone got the full Jeremy Wilson article? Not a paper I subscribe to the Telegraph! Looks like a substantial article from the news now glimpse they give.
Article sent to me by a friend. I do not buy or read the Telegraph but it was suggested that I might enjoy reading this: http://digitaleditions.telegraph.co...0/package/886/pub/886/page/120/article/274667

This is an interesting question. Obviously assuming wage & contract lengths are the same, who would we want to keep on? Personally I would go for Forster. He makes fewer big mistakes that lead to goals, is a good stop stopper and whilst his distribution is poor, it really seems to have improved lately. Hopefully at 33 he is happy to be a back up keeper here.
It’s not that simple as we have supposedly chosen to keep McCarthy and given him a new contract after flip flopping between them at the end of last season. Don’t see us keeping both if we want a new number 1 in the summer, they’re on too much money.
McCarthy has a new contract so an extension for Forster would either mean keeping both or hoping someone will want to sign McCarthy I’m not sure how confident I would be for the latter. Who both needs a goalkeeper and would pay a premier league (approx 50k a week) wage for McCarthy ? I expect he signed an extension as he was unable to leverage free agent status to secure a pay rise. But perhaps someone will simply match his terms. But then it would come down to location/how settled he is Ideal scenario would be a club closer to london coming in for him but I’m not sure I see it
He may be a bit of a loop now, but for those too young to remember that Matt wasn't just all about goals. This is fab.
Great vid. We’ve all seen the goals a thousand times but seeing the skills and piss-taking brings back memories. I can’t not love him.
