If he does, on his wages, paying it off would be an unlikely gesture. You're still missing the point.
Maybe deliberately.

Even if his debt/wages came to £10m, it'd still be money well spent if it kept us up. And we know Tony likes a gamble.

......he'd fail the 'no dickheads' rule.

Would he ?
Was well thought of at Arsenal, many of the fans there were sorry to see him go. I've not seen him making waves at Chelsea, despite his frustration at a lack of game time. Where's the evidence of his dickheadedness ? Seems like a fairly low maintenance pro to me.
Aside from his gambling problem of course, but thats not part of the dickhead test.

TB could give him a free credit line and a 6 month subscription to StarLizards tips.
Newcastle now in the picture for Giroud, and/or Bowen from Hull.

Bowen got to be worth a punt and would add a lot of pace
Giroud don’t see happening for us we not even been mentioned

I can't believe you've gone back 56 years for an example of a top player slumming it - that's 28 years before English top flight football was even invented.
His knees were gone when we took him on, anway.
As I posted elsewhere, Phil Stant is a more recent example of how an old fellah made an enormous contribution to Brighton's attack.

If you say we'll only pay max of £X per week wages because of some cap then maybe, but as [MENTION=70]Easy 10[/MENTION]and others have alluded, If you do the maths in how much he'd actually cost in real terms for 6 months (probably somewhere circa 1.5-3 million) and considering what you're getting, It's not a huge outlay for someone who is not a punt at PL level, he's a proven top international striker.
Sadly the days of a joy ride from Shoreham airport, £500’a week and a piss up in the Amsterdam are long gone.
The price mentioned in the Newcastle story is £3m, so you’re about right. Say 15% of an Adam Webster, if you want a comparison.

Can anyone one of you seriously see us even contacting Chelsea about him?
We’re just not in that league and I can’t see any ambition in this window that we want to be.

Don't disagree, bottom 5 budget equals bottoms five and sooner or later the luck will run out.
Making claims of top ten by TB was a bit premature when there's no intent to spend like a 10th placed club.
