If it's £3.5 million, I'll be absolutely amazed with 6 months on his deal.

Sidwell gone to Fulham, all done.



This time it better not be premature.

£3.5million? Christ almighty.

Who cares about the finance, it's all done.

Time to move on and lie in wait for the procession of fantastic footballers that will grace our presence as a direct result of this transaction.

Don't want to talk out of school but
Was in a club London about 4 weeks back between midnight and 0300 hrs say
bentley was in there too with his sister and some of her mates
He was giving it large about this that and the other, off his face on C**e and being a complete twat
& this was on a school night !!
perfectly suited to SHA
MMM would you have come out with this if bentley was joining villa..mmmm i think not,i will put this down to bitterness....

We've been linked with this guy a lot and we've pretty much all been against it every time!

I think were fine in the winger dept and its not bitterness I can assure you

He's only signed a 6 month deal with a view to a longer one, so it won't be that much.

Other sources are saying that the whole deal for Sidwell is worth £3.5m - this includes his wages. He was going to Fulham in the summer for £2m and that's gone down since then. I read somewhere £250,000.

Coke only stays in the system for 24 hours after taking it, any player would be rather unlucky to be caught out unless they were being actively targeted. Apparently.

Sidwell just leaving saves us about £1m in wages between now and the end of his deal.

That £71m wage budget is already down to £68.5m

Sheldon, just because you have signed someone does not automatically change opinions on here to say they are shite and likewise visa versa. Saying things about a player that we have heard is nothing to do with them signing for us, look at the comments re Bridge. It might on a nose forum, but in general the views on Bentley have been negative for a long time. Indeed when we were in for him from Blackburn before Milner the board was split, and I strangely did not want him then but do now. Times change, and I think he will do really well wherever his loan is.

Miller is spanners though.

With Wolves, West Ham and Fulham all wanting Sidwell it“s a pity we couldn“t have got an auction going. A nominal fee of 250k it seems - the 3.5m in that article will refer to his wages over three years or whatever as Nick said.

We“re obviously relieved to get him off the wage bill that any transfer money is seen as a bonus. What an atrocious waste of money he was - must be close to 10m when accounting for his 2.5 years of wages here.
