There's just no way they've paid that and given him a contract until January. I did reply to the rumour, rather than the confirmation which I saw after I posted. I think it’s mad that they’ve gone into this season with Foster as their number one Oh yeah I got you, I just meant how wildly out all the reports will have been quoting £100k. I know the 'Wrexham tax' is a thing but the suggestion of that fee in hindsight is hilarious. Foster looked a bit shot last season, although I saw little of him. That penalty save bought him an awful lot of goodwill though.

Still seems a little strange though.

Anyone know anything about him? Gillingham have been linked with him for a few weeks now and have finally got their man. Seems to be alot of excitement but he's goalscoring record is quite bad sinve he left orient a few years 4 years ago and he's only 5'9 so it's not like he's a target man. would've been back with us but wanted £10K a week to join us & weve already maxed out our £3.7 million budget. Scored plenty in his first season at Charlton as 3rd choice, quick good movement fox in the box type & althouh only 5ft9 the lad can leap . can see him bagging 20+ as a starter but could see him flop & be content to count his money . Potentially a great signing.

Bradford winning now, just what we don't need for Tuesday, them with tails up.

Saw this in the speil, and decided not to bother: “No player has ever followed the path that Troy took. From bricklayer to the Premier League.” I know Les Ferdinand was a painter/decorator not a bricklayer before he played football professionally, but that still counts as the building trade as far as I’m concerned. Not bothered finding out whether lazy journalism, ego-massaging, or the perpetuation of the myth that the PL didn’t exist before Citeh got into it was behind it, frankly…

Not sure, but he did do time for non-payment of a fine.
