It wasn't - Newcastle's gamble didn't pay off They are a spectacularly badly run club, something we know a lot about ourselves Although Bigi wasn't looking for a move he did get a vast increase in wages before he ended up back with us after NUFC paid him off before the end of his contract...

Tony Mowbray said is was '£100k'

Well yes That illustrates the situation exactly Newcastle are rumoured to have paid £1m up front but there will almost certainly have been add ons if Bigi had gone on to the top level It was a risk for NUFC which didn't pay off

I promise you there will have been sell on and other clauses for Ben and the other prospects we've sold in recent times The buying clubs don't mind as young players are always a gamble and if they are lucky and the player develops as hoped they will get the bulk of the 2nd transfer fee It...

Poor sod It must be heart breaking to come back and pick up another injury immediately I don't understand the animosity towards Bev He always tries 100% and never hides but isn't a goal scorer

Sensible decision as Nolan would have told their players to get Max sent off They will find JCH a different proposition - he will be in their face

Not Vincenti The poor bugger was the fall guy as MR tried to steady the ship at 0 3

Very good point I hadn't realised until recently that Biamou was only training one day a week at Sutton When he first came in he was like a fish up a tree and did zero work when we didn't have the ball But as his fitness levels have improved and he's learned more about the full time game we can...

You'd need more detail for true comparison Agents fees are paid in instalments - sometimes using the same basis as the transfer fee Most transfer fees even at Premier League level are paid in several tranches with the schedule set out in the transfer doc's I'd guess that these figures include...

Dion sprinted over together with the rest of the team. Had Devon's foot been planted it would have been a leg breaker

It ended 3 0 with goals from Ponticelli x 2 & Maycock Both DKE's played but Devon had to go off after a terrible tackle The ref gave a straight red Don't have more details at the moment

Not sure about Baker - I don't think so but I didn't take a note of the full team Addai and Hickman both playing as well as Camwell, Finn & Sayoud

Heard from someone at the game Tom Davies playing as well as all the main U23 guys - even those who've been out on loan Recent games have featured lots of younger players from U18's

Quite possible

Apparently the U23's are 3 0 up against Leeds before HT Seems like we have a very strong team out

I suspect he hadn't fully recovered from his earlier injury Nick Makes sense to rest him while others are doing well

He's a great bloke who did his best If he'd been given the budget here that he has at Blackburn........

Most transfers have staged payments even for the base fee Depending on the amount the base fee may be paid in instalments over 12 to 24 months It may well be that this just included the first tranche of the base fee

That may have been the case in the past but these days all transfers are done through the FA clearing system All documents are lodged with them and money paid through them as intermediaries Of course some clubs may still get up to dodgy dealing on the side but they would risk sanctions like some...
