Indeed, but they made it all public to apply pressure, and so no more meetings, and no more negotiations. The price is the price. Pay up or be on your way.

All depends on how nasty we want to be about things. If we don't want to dance there will be no dance. Our owners are clearly not going to go down that route though.

Skeletor Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Problem is, its easy to look at Ashworth at Brighton, Pedro Braz at Benfica and say "They sell players for huge fees and another just comes along to replace them".
