i think the point of the article was that dyer continued to earn massive wages and was still floating around when he was clearly a busted flush

 

woodgate never really recovered from madrid did he?  when he came back i doubt he was on massive contracts like dyer continued to get, maybe but i doubt it

Am i right in remembering we made a £1m profit on selling Dyer, or did we just get our money back?

Either way, a fantastic bit of business on our part

 

I think we got about £6m for him which was mental because I think most of us were desperately holding out for anything :lol:

 

Even after West Ham's stupidity I can't believe QPR then offered him a load of money. He must have the best agent in the world!

has this been posted?  for maybe the first time in my life i actually made my own :anguish: face when i read this bit:

 

"Those numbers again: in 17 years he played just over 300 matches, scoring 23 Premier League goals, including none at all between 2007 and 2013. In this time he earned between £20m and £30m in wages."

 

Good article.

 

"In this sense he belongs to all of us, a product of our own sclerotic system. We are all Kieron Dyer – I am Kieron Dyer. You are Kieron Dyer. Joe Cole is Kieron Dyer – just perhaps not to the same extent Kieron Dyer has had to be Kieron Dyer. "  :lol:

A good player for us at a time when we were generally a good team, and at a time when I only had an in depth knowledge of what happened on the pitch rather than being worn down by the shite that goes on off it.

 

For those reasons, he'll probably be one of my favourite players. I loved that we had some ridiculous pace in him and Bellamy.

According to Wiki he made 406 career appearances, 323 being league games, which must be what they're on about but then you can hardly just ignore his cup appearances especially when some were in the Champions League for us.

Surely that brings the National Minimum Wage into play?

not sure if it was posted before but anyway....

 

http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/kieron-dyer-lifts-lid-fight-7968397

 

Kieron Dyer has opened up about his onfield punch-up with Lee Bowyer.

 

The pair came to blows during a 3-0 home defeat against Aston Villa in 2005 when they heaped shame on Newcastle United.

 

Dyer says that it was a personal insult aimed at Bowyer’s lack of ability that pushed him over the edge.

 

The former Toon star said: “We were playing the game, he came short and wanted the ball and I passed to someone else.

 

“He was like ‘Give me the ball’ and I was like ‘I haven’t given the ball away, what you talking about’. Five minutes later he came again and I gave it to somebody else.

 

“And he said, ‘You never pass to me!’ I said, ‘The reason I don’t pass to you is because you’re **** basically’.

 

“There were a lot of swear words. And that was it then you just saw him lose his head.

 

“He said, ‘You what?’ And I said, ‘You heard me.’

 

“As he was walking towards me I just thought he was going to grab me or push me.

 

“When he was raining the punches in I thought, ‘You need to get on the weights because they aren’t hurting.’

 

“Secondly, I was thinking ‘I can’t believe he’s doing this in front of 50,000 people’.”

 

The spat continued in the dressing room, and Dyer revealed that Jean Alain Boumsong told the pair to fight it out in the dressing room – before they backed down when Graeme Souness offered to fight them both!

 

Dyer said: “I didn’t know you could get sent off for fighting your own team-mate, so when the red card came out I thought, ‘What the hell!’

 

“I was sent off first and I was waiting in the tunnel to get some revenge. He came in, and we had two massive masseurs and they just dunked us on their shoulders.

 

“It was like a cartoon when your feet are dangling off the ground and we were trying to get at each other. We are sat in the changing room and they were in the middle of us.

 

“I was thinking how I could get to him. Then we heard the final whistle.

 

“Boumsong came in and said, ‘If you want to fight, fight now.’ I was wanting to fight and get the revenge.

 

“Then Souness came in and said, ‘If you want to fight I’ll beat both of you.’ Al came in and I never saw him lose it like that – he went mad and called us selfish and a disgrace. He knew we’d have a three-match suspension and miss the FA Cup semi-final that was coming up.”

 

Dyer has since patched things up with Bowyer.

 

He said: “I still see him now, we are friends. That’s just the way Lee was. But I still want to beat him up.”
