Bridge on his day is a fantastic left back

He'll be playing for his future and to secure a move elsewhere

Yeah we're paying high wages, but who gives a f*ck if theres no fee and its until the end of the season

If he contributes to getting us out of the shit then its fantastic

Bridge offers nothing special another Sidwell type signing for me. Rubbish

Bridge wouldn't really be any improvement on Warnock at all. Neither has any positional sense and seems to have much of a brain anymore.

Bridge at over twice the wages of Warnock? It's definitely a no from me.

IMO I think you'd have a point if we were watching the Warnock who played for Blackburn
The Warnock who started last season for us was in another league to Bridge. The Warnock who has been bumbling around out of position for most of this season giving away stupid free kicks is pretty much what we would get from Bridge. If we were dumb enough to sign him.

I'd rather Clark stay there. And I don't want Clark to stay there.

maybe warnock swap for Samba  ;-@

We'd be lucky to get a knackered old Talbot Samba for Warnock.

Bridge has been gash for Citeh, but he played well in that game against Chelsea where he refused to shake Terry's hand.

So if he's motivated he's got the quality.

If he'd be motivated here or not I don't know. He knows he wont get the contract he's on at Citeh here so I doubt he would be playing for a move here.

So all we have to do is get somebody to shag his missus.  I'd be willing to take one for the team for the greater good.

well thats the problem isn't it? He knows he's going nowhere because there's not a club in the world who'd pay him what he gets at citeh. Same problem we had with the likes of MFH/Sidwell etc..

So, with our wage bill still being too high, the answer is to pay Wayne Bridge £90K a week?

What we paying ? Possibly about £1.5(ish) million for him until the end of the season?....given the madness of prem players transfer fees that's not a bad deal for him. We need a left back, we've got less than a month to sort one and let's face it, we are not gonna be signing any top class left backs for a fortune...

If indeed he comes here

Short of selling Sidwell to Wolves and then buying him straight back for double the fee, I can't really think of a worse deal.

Beye, Warnock, Sidwell, Harewood on 3-5 year deals?

Paying Wayne Bridge £1.5m for four months 'work' would comfortably sit with any of those.
