How long is the contract?

I’m judging by that fucking grin it’s quite long.

Do the Djemba twins count as a single signing?

Hopefully it's an incentive based deal.

I think this is a tremendous deal personally. He was superb for Luton last season.
Yes....for Luton where it's not that difficult to shine in their very basic midfield.

It's actually pretty difficult to shine in a premier league midfield when you're surrounded by sub-standard players, and regularly playing against top teams full of internationals.  You're starved of possession, and when you get it, your options are always limited.  Not easy, at all.  And he still looked pretty good for most of the season.

There is no doubting his natural ability, we saw it in spurts three years ago.  If he's got his head right, and is 100% committed to being the best footballer he can be for the remaining few years he has at the top of the game, then we've got ourselves a great player.

I think we technically had Peter Withe on our books as a player twice.

Did we? I don't know about that. Before or after he made us CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE?

Genuinely think this, in these PSR years, is a great signing.

Adds tons to the squad, a different sort of option, in a season in which we will be playing a huge amount of football. At least 8 CL matches, 38 league games, a couple of LC matches plus however many matches you have to play to WIN THE FA CUP.

Way after, was when Venglos was in charge. Withe was a coach but signed as a player just in case. Made one appearance for the reserves (thanks Wikipedia).

Of course. Could've made an educated guess there (or googled it)! Cheers.

Nick Owen has said he's gutted he's leaving, but did wish him all the best and said it was a great move for him, thank you Nick.
