AJ 1,221 Posted February 2, 2009 [quote user="Arturo Whittlupoli"]From what i understand, Coventry paid Luton the remainder of what we owed them plus gave us 150,000. Cant work out if its good business or not to be honest.[/quote]I''d say bad business.But at the same time, it''s another want-away gone, annnnnnnd another player off our wage bill.

Cant work out if its good business or not to be honest.[/quote]Well if you deduct the cost of six months wages, the costs of fairly extensive injury treatments and the original lump sum we probably paid for him I guess it wouldn''t be particularly good business.Thing is none of us know with any accuracy any of the sums involved so it''s all speculation at best.What we do know is that Coleman was trying to unsettle Bell at least as far back as early December and I would have thought we have very good grounds for litigation against Coventry.With a Solicitor on the Board who coincidentally is on the Board of the Football League there can be no possibility of pleading ignorance of this offence being committed against us.Failure to act in pursuit of much needed compensation implies to me that all is not as it seems at our end.

That''s league 1.
