Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted January 30, 2009 The test will be if the cash is re invested. We all know we need a centre forward and centre half as a top priority. If we get those in then i am happy. bell made a modest imact and was well down the pecking order on the right side with Croft in such fine form Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Fish Seller 0 Posted January 30, 2009 Cov fans are of the mind that we still owed Luton the balance of the transfer fee and have paid that directly to Luton and a nominal sum to us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tangible Fixed Assets anyone? 0 Posted January 30, 2009 [quote user="Tommy Gunn"]Cov fans are of the mind that we still owed Luton the balance of the transfer fee and have paid that directly to Luton and a nominal sum to us.[/quote]If we didn''t pay for Bell upfront then I would expect us to have one or more instalments to pay Luton but Coventry''s transfer contract is with us. So I would expect their fee to be paid to us and we would pay Luton for anything still outstanding. The effect is still the same i.e. free up some cash for us.

Grando 260 Posted January 30, 2009 Just spoke to a sauce at the club and it turns out Gunn was misquoted by Archant yesterday. He meant to say:"We''re looking to sell, not buy."Hope that clears things up. My sauce is generally very reliable about these things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ex-greenoschin 0 Posted January 30, 2009 There''s nothing unusual in that practice with every football club, this is one of those situations where if the club had paid in full ,up front then some of you would be bleating about the fact that we paid everything up front and no-one else does - why are we so stupid etc etc!

Hairy Canary 701 Posted January 30, 2009 How much did we have to fork out to get rid of Roeder? It''s got to be around the fee that we have got for bell (say £500k) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul moy 235 Posted January 30, 2009 Perhaps Luton have agreed to release Martin and Spillane if we paid them some cash earlier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canary cherub 1 Posted January 30, 2009 [quote user="the artist formerly known as VIYAG"]That was the headline only yesterdayToday- Bell soldYou really do sense that the wolf is very close to the door[/quote]Is that another way of Gunny saying that selling Bell wasn''t his decision? Surely he must have known Bell was going when he said it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul moy 235 Posted January 30, 2009 If he''d have said that we desperately need to sell to raise funds he would not have got such a good fee for Bell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
