Canary Boy 0 Posted May 12, 2009 So far, it appears that Cardiff have agreed a cut fee for Marshall, probably less than what we paid for him.So we make a him a regular international goalkeeper and sell him from less than what we paid for him...and we let Joe Lewis go for £350,000.This club is a joke!

Mr Angry 1,511 Posted May 12, 2009 Actually he''s only played for Scotland twice, in 2004, and only played in a B internatioanl last week-hardly makes him a regular international goalkeeper! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stevee Wonder 0 Posted May 12, 2009 And how exactly does the Pink''un know this? ...Exactly, it''s just guess work.

Rethinking the future 0 Posted May 12, 2009 Considering David Marshall has been criticised most of the season by readers of this m/board for his inconsistent performances, and that he is about to enter the final year of his contract, anyone expecting us to recoup the original transfer fee will be bitterly disappointed. He has only got into the Scotland squad due to the stupidity of his peers rather than due to his abilities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E I E I E I O 0 Posted May 12, 2009 Stevee,We are in league 1 because we are crap and all player sales for the past 4 or so years have been undisclosed! Except when we paid anywhere near a million for a player (Not often) They would then say that player sales (How much?) would go back to the player budget? Our signings would then be undisclosed (How much?)It was clear we were making money out of this as we were selling the likes of Earnshaw and Green and getting the likes of Strihavka, Cureton and others!That is my point they are a load of secretive spin merchants, however they have no idea how transparent they actually are!!So Stevee you really should open your eyes!

Stevee Wonder 0 Posted May 12, 2009 Many of you are still missing the point.NEARLY ALL TRANSFERS IN FOOTBALL ARE UNDISCLOSED.It''s just a fact of life (well, football). It''s got nothing to do with "secret spin" or "another way to tell us what they want" or "pocketing the money" (as some suggest) etc. Every club does it.

Yellow Rider 0 Posted May 12, 2009 Presumably it''s the old ''release clause'' syndrome again??Sometime ago I was told that Marshall had a ...''very aggressive agent'' who would almost certainly have insisted that such a clause go in the players contract with us.
