i think in the grand scale of things, criticising a player who did well for us for taking what he's legally entitled to is a bit OTT. If he was all about lining his pockets he wouldn't have come to us in the first place.

Will JT be back on reduced wages? Surely we can afford him now? No transfer fee involved....

No forget him. Not going to be good enough in any case.

Legs had gone since that injury. Maybe he'd like to come back as Henry's Assistant?

He didn't want another year in the second tier.

Unless "Lamps" persuades him.

How do you know that?  It was made pretty clear to him that we couldn’t afford him.

We can tell him we're getting the band back together.

I'd like him back. And Snodgrass for that matter, although we'd probably have to buy him.

Not for me either. He'll be paid a fortune which is what we need to try and avoid for the time being I would have thought

Well he’d still be with us if we’d gone up so why not?
Or maybe on the coaching staff.
In my opinion his influence stretched far beyond the first team and having an experienced winner must be of help to us surely?

"We need to stop making the same mistakes of getting old, average players on high wages that nearly crippled the club"

"Let's get John Terry back!"

We're better than this. The future looks so bright today; let's look forward, not back.

I’d say there’s a bit of a difference in terms of experience,dedication and ability between Terry and several ageing examples we could mention.
