54 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 The amount clubs spend on agent fees came out yesterday, City have spend 9 million, Spurs spend 7 million and we are the forth highest spending 6 million. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/15976782.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 It is a bit scary how much people spend on agents, but then the sums of money involved in football are mental in general. I'm guessing this will go down as we stop being taken for a mug by Willy McKay on a regular basis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Guessing Ba and Marv cost us about £4-5m betwean them looking at the rest of the fugures. As expected really then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Is it only the buying club (during a player transfer) that is made accountable for paying agent fees? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzzieMandias Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I'm guessing that a bit more spent on agents' fees might be some kind of trade-off consequence of doing deals in weird loophole areas that avoid massive transfer fees. Someone's got to deal with all those "clauses". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 To be fair, it might be worth paying money to agents if it allows us to pull off the bargain-basement signings we've been doing so far. It's still cheap compared to paying big transfer fees. The entire money we spent on agents fees would only buy us one of Jordan Henderson's legs.

Hanshithispantz Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I feel really bad that I laughed at that tbh (I took it as a joke, if it wasn't a joke my laughter will probably evolve into pity) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I thought it was an incredible pun cleverly disguised as an error of understanding. Comedy genius. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest je85 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 By the nature of our recent signings, loop holes, clauses, out of contract etc I'm certainly not surprised we are that high. Still less than Harry 'Not a wheeler dealer' Redknapp's bunch though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
