Glad we didn't match their offer.
I'd be surprised if his father in law was spouting his wages in a pub really, and were we really signing youngsters in league one from Plymouth on £8k a week? But if he has doubled his money would not surprise me, as I did hear we only offered a small increase in his new proposed contract.

I think those numbers might be a little* innacurate.

Of course we weren't. Those are the wages he was on when he left here, not what his first contract was worth.
Did he sign a new one when he was here then? Or were we offering huge promotion increases?

Very good move for Ashley, though I'm pretty sure it's a move he'd much rather have not had to make, what with a young family settled in Brighton and all that. It was however a very bad move for the Albion letting him go that easily. Where's Ulloa's strike partner for the rest of the season coming from? Sake!
He signed at LEAST one new contract while he was here.

Even if this person lied to you, it is probably near the truth. Murray moved to Palace and was initially on around £12k and wasn't even a Championship experienced player.

Remember they are all but promoted to the land of riches. They have a small squad with no big names, and Austin's money had to go somewhere.

Those figures fit in nicely then I would have thought, good luck to Barnes.....
Next subject please
You can buy a nice house near Burnley on £16k a week......or possibly a country estate!!
Well that's a turn up.
I thought AB, turned down the Albion's guaranteed contract then uprooted his young family back a century, for half the money that was on offer, here.

Primary data is fact
Good point Tadge but more likely to be edging a million when employer's NI (@13.8%) and pension contributions are included.
157 employees including only 14 P/T so they may well fully contract out their stewarding and catering operations.

To help plug the £8M or so annual operating loss, as was the money they received from the sale of Jay Rodriguez.
You can buy a nice house in Burnley for £16k.

I was told by an agent that he was on £1500 we offered £4500 and a 2 year deal Burnley offered £5000 and a 3 year deal so somebody is wrong, not sure who. Do you honestly expect his father in law to give out exact figures in a pub? Do people tell they exact weight of the fish they have caught?
Some gullible souls. Just a quick flick through the OPs posting history, is enough for me to form my own conclusions.
