Fuck no. He would be out for as much as he could get for a final contract no matter who he signed for.

Makes you wonder whether PHW already knew what his agents wage demands were when he talked to the press about us not offering silly money to keep him and he should stay out of loyalty.

Did he ask for a decent wage as a top tier striker? I am sure he did! Did he ask for bettter contract than our fucking stupid over 30yrs contract? I sure he did; he would have been farking stupid not to!

Did he ask for 200000 per week from us? There is no farking indication he did. Did he ask Juve/City/United for the going rate they give their star player? I am sure he did! So what? Why the fark should Rooney earn more than him when they play for the same team --- he is at rooney's level! Fergie thinks so too.

Pretty much..I was gonna comment but that's basically what i would have said...I probably would have thrown in that RvC is **** too, but thats just me:lol: Ahhh go on then....

The statement he brought out was the nail in the coffin. I had to explain this to a Man U fan also (not too bright those man u fans) but as soon as he came out and criticised the direction of the club aswell as saying he wouldnt sign an extension it was over. Also the difference between what Paddy said and what RVC said was that the **** released a fucking statement, Paddy at least had the sense to pretend to be mis-quoted by a dodgy reporter. RvC knew what he was doing, if contracts talks were not discussed it's because he wanted out already, if they were discussed (which i think they were - maybe not directly with rvC but with his agent) then I think they were the 220k+ he was after.

Ultimately regardless of how you look at it, he could have done a cesc and kept his mouth shut, it doesnt matter what was being said by the PHW, the media or supposed insiders of the club because it's the fans not the board, not the media, not some supposed insider at the club that determine what your status as a player was within the history of the club. He could have left with some dignity....he didnt, he's a disappointment, but for me, I wanted him gone after the statement because I only want players that want to be here and I knew that although he may have thought he was saying fuck you to the board, he was saying fuck you to the fans because that statement began the low 10-12million bids for a player that should have been worth 30+ at the time.

Fuck im

At the endof the day, he didn't request a transfer so will get his loyalty payout...

I'm not saying he shouldn't have asked for that kinda money, most top footballers these days are on those wages. But to suggest that he wasn't wanting a similar level of wage from us that he has asked for from other clubs is just naive.

We were obviously going to make him our highest earner...so why didnt he sign? RvC said no contracts talks were had....he was gone when he said "whatever happens I love this club" then he joined Manchester United:lol:unbefuckinleavable

He can have his loyalty payout in the form of Sagna's cock up his arse.

Because it was more than just about money! Reports in this thread by the very people bashing him claim he was encouraged by the signings made so far and was coming around --- but was sold anyway! You can look back a few pages. Wasn't that the crust of that statement he is being lambasted with? But AFC as usual has shown where their priorities lie. Money first!

The thing is, it's kinda like your GF saying that shes leaving you because she reckons your not earning enough money and basically disses you to all her friends...you then get a promotion and really start getting yourself together, the bitch then calls you talking about how she has seen what your doing and she's willing to stick around...Like really? Get the fuck out of my face bitch...:lol:

Again, I don't even think his wages were discussed or a contract offered. We prepared ourselves early. First Wenger made those comments about him approaching his peak whether he's worth the massive contract, then we sign Poldoski. Over the next few days we'll hear if there was a decent offer on the table but I get the feeling we weren't too keen on giving him the wages. It's bad enough we allowed him to get to the final year of his contract.
