His post was such drivel I couldn’t be bothered to even reply.

The notion we sold him “on the cheap” is utterly laughable.

Who used those words? We got as much as could be expected at the time, given that we sold him too soon, didn't give him time to flower in the first team, and consequently never got the benefit of his growing market value. Yeah, Anderson said we negotiated a stake in his future career, but it's most likely peanuts in today's market. He's worth at least ten times as much as we'll ever see from the deal, just as I predicted at the time. I'm realiistic enough to know we are minnows now, however if you think it was great business to sell at the first opportunity, maybe you're the one talking drivel?The notion we sold him “on the cheap” is utterly laughable.

We definitely sold him too cheap. We should’ve offered him the highest wage contract in the clubs history and let him take us up the leagues. He was always going to end up as one of the prems best players.
Ridiculous statement.We should’ve offered him the highest wage contract in the clubs history and let him take us up the leagues
Ridiculous statement.
Would hardly take us up the league with the team Mowbray assembled the next season

Get a loan from the Bank of ForesightAnd how would we have afforded that?
It's amazing a club in our position has 2 players at the very highest standard of world football. The youth academy has a lot to be proud off.
We actually have 3.
With Cyrus Christie now starting right back at Fulham.
Brilliant achievement-shame they aren’t all playing for us .

Many others as well as myself said we could see his potential and should have held out for more money. The usual suspects said we got a very good amount for him. I said that I could see him going all the way. Then the normal name calling started. I said I would keep an eye on how he did. Got told I was wasting my time after his loan back to us.Sorry to continue the argument (!) But I was just asking. Personally I don't get it and having listened to the reasons put forward for the continuing interest still don't!
That's just my take on it. Each to their own, Just wish my twitter fed wasn't full of it because I couldn't give a fuck.
Indeed.
Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City only have 5 each which shows even with mega money and the best resources possible how difficult it is to produce a player capable of playing at the top level

So I continue to keep an eye on him. And those who said he wasn't good enough are now questioning why I still keep an eye on how he is doing.
I just don't understand.....
Didn't they?No one said he wasn’t good enough.
How much did we get for him?
We did similar for the likes of Kirkland... although that may have ended up a good deal, in hindsight!Ironically Dagenham & Redbridge Managing Director Steve Thompson told their fans forum this week that they'd sold their sell-on rights to us and FGR for Jodi Jones and Christian Doidge after they went into financial meltdown last season
Football really is a predatory business
Didn't they?
Oh well must have been imagining things yet again.
Too small. Falls over too easy. Championship player at best.
I suppose Grendel will have an excuse ready for what he said :smuggrin:
Cue everyone checking what they wrote

Undisclosed.No don’t think so but as we sold him cheap I’m more interested in how much we received
Undisclosed.
Or do you mean with the money for him going to Fester as well?
Also undisclosed.
But we wouldn't have got the second amount if you was right.
The club has already had offers for JonesWe did similar for the likes of Kirkland... although that may have ended up a good deal, in hindsight!
Guess Jones is a wait and see, too...
Still not realised until and unless he goes, however. He could come back worse, he could decide to run down his contract - all manner of things.The club has already had offers for Jones
At least two Championship teams still wanted to take him while he was injured
Think the lad is happy here though and can't wait to get back playing
Like I said you would make some sort of comment to try and make yourself look right.Uh? So he went too cheap but we don’t know how much. Right.

I suppose we sold him for eleventy billion and got another eleventy billion for him.
Who is/was the highest earner in the clubs history, I remember Dion Dublin signing a millionWe definitely sold him too cheap. We should’ve offered him the highest wage contract in the clubs history and let him take us up the leagues. He was always going to end up as one of the prems best players.
he did and it was embarrassing ‘and also the reason Norwich loaned him straight to AberdeenStand by it, he did dive a lot to the point of embarrassment.
