please tell me how much you think Doncaster are paying towards Beye's wages then?

Between £1k-£2k according to the quotes I've just given you. Which is higher than £0.

So now you've gone from Doncaster definitely not paying anything to intimating that they're not paying enough?


1-2k is the figure i heard. compared to loaning him out to a proper club at his level its nothing. 4-8k a month on a 40-50k a week contract. pay him off.

OK, you're absolutely right - it makes complete sense to shell out £40k-£50k more than we have to.  Well done.

What possible financial relevance does that have to Villa? They are still paying some of his wages prior to his contract expiring.

Yes, but Greg doesn't want that now.  Please do try to keep up!

I love this one man crusade thing. Long may it last.

Has it ever occured to you that the reason he went to Doncaster is because nobody else wanted him?

I don't think I can. I'm going for a mince pie and a hot blackcurrant. Then perhaps the world will make sense again.

Surely we could have found some usage for Beye by now?

Maybe cleaning boots or working in the cafeteria.

well i had no idea the finances was so out of control that we had to keep hold of a player for the sake of 4k a month, but i stand corrected. Maybe the poor results are just a cunning plan by AM to bolster the January transfer fund. Just think who we could pay with all the savings from the unpaid win bonuses

Again, you're contradicting yourself. You said we should offer him to other clubs on reduced wages and now you agree that we tried that and there were no takers. Except for the one who did take him. And please don't shout.

I dont want to do this Greg, but perhaps if you invested someof your hard earned cash into the club, you would perhaps be against paying someone off vast sums, instead of cutting your losses by taking some money from another club.

I get the sentiment, he is shite, not good enough for us however you want to dress it up. However, the current situation is better for us than your solution.

i suggested we offer him to a club and pay 70% of his wages which is about rougthly 11-15k a week they'd have find At no time did i suggest 1-2k a week which is paying near enough all of it anyway for no benefit at all. If thats the best deal we can get then pay him off.

quite frankly Greg, given where we are we need the bodies. I'd be tempted to offer him a new deal.

If we can't get some money we should get none at all. Logic, Greg-style

I've always quite rated Beye. Never felt he was given a fair crack of the whip. Get him back from Donny and play him. If he proves himself then give him a new contract and we save a fortune.

Edit: TV beat me to it.

Totally disagree - I thought this would be an awful few days at work, but this afternoon has really made it all worthwhile!
