Why has he only got one 'T' , did his parents MIPSELL his name on the Birth Certificate ?

The original Matthew in the Biblical sense was a Tax Collector. Perhaps she wanted to disassociate her son from him.

Or perhaps in the rush to write anything other than Bruce on the birth certificate his parents spelt Matthew wrong.

I'm looking forward to watching him and of course I hope he's going to be a success, but I think I would have been more comfortable with Stockdale. Hopefully it's just me being nervous of what's to come and he will be a big step up in class.

Anyone know what the fee was?

Still a bit annoying that we don't publicise it, especially when its a record

Walton to Wigan on loan stories gathering pace. I suppose we'll want to tie him to a contract extension first.

Very much hope so..

General consensus is 6m Euros - so around £5.2m

Or to put it another way:-

Holder of the title 'Club Record Transfer Fee', just a few days longer than Will Buckley.

Good spot Doc, makes me feel a lot more confident about letting Stockdale go.

According to the excellent Brian Owen in the Argus, the fee is €6m, which works out as £5.25 million

Thought this was interesting.


Very interesting thanks. I did think that however good Matt was in commanding his area and shot stopping, he was going to have to be VERY good with his feet as Stockdale had set a whole new level for Albion Keepers.

Great clip, thanks. I only saw 25 minutes of the match today but the pundits observations were pretty much word for word how I described his play to my son earlier. I think we are in for some 'fun' times at the Amex next season!
