adajam4 0 Posted January 24, 2010 Would we really need to pay anything to Colchester.... if anything he left them, so ........ he might get a fine but surely not us? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they feel we did there can be a potential points deduction (although the FA have never used this punishment before for a tapping up). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,557 Posted January 24, 2010 [quote user="adajam4"]does anyone have any idea of a ball park figure for this?[/quote]Very hard to say really, but when you consider Doncaster wanted Burnley to pay £2m for their manager and Owen Coyle cost Bolton £3m managers aren''t cheap. Although we are in a very different League to the Premier, so it won''t be that kind of money. I wouldn''t be surprised if it got up to the million pound mark to be honest, Norwich and Lambert acted unprofessionally in the whole thing, it resulted in us getting a great manager quickly so can''t complain, but we may have to pay big for it.

adajam4 0 Posted January 25, 2010 wow these figures are more than i thought... i mean 400k...... yea that is fair enough...... but a million...... i hope not....... thats a lot of money in league one... and slightly off topic but if we go up, what prize money is there?
