Bash in line for Saudi switch?

[Mouth of the South]

Undoubtedly the player's agent agitating for a new contract. TBF he's been a brilliant servant to the club and stuck with it through some tough times. He's proven he's able to play at Prem level and as it is likely to be his final big contract, he and his agent are looking to maximise it.

If a player gets a one last big pay day that's up to him and his agent. Sometimes we let our heart rule our heads . Past players we kept and season after could not hack it or players move and did bugger all. Its a tough one to be CW

Who are you replacing him with for £3m?

somebody Greek

Borbokis?

Plato.

Good move for him if true.

Good move for us as well.

We have to move on

In 18 months time, most of the stalwarts from 3 and 4 years ago will either be gone or just marking time as useful subs.

Otherwise we'll have gone backwards.

Sentiment doesn't win games of football

He’s a Sunderland fan ain’t he?

Expect a lot more of this over the summer. Sheffield United are the lowest payers in the premiership and unless they renegotiate a lot of contracts the vultures will be swooping with big money offers after their performances this season.

I work with his dad. There's no way he'll go to Newcastle.

Who are you replacing him with for £3m?

Judging by his last comment he’d be buying £3m worth of crack and crystal to top himself up.

If we sell Basham I’m supporting whoever he moves to. I’m a bit like Ball_Sup (Phil) when it comes to football with his ‘not football without the fans’ argument. I’m at a point where my affinity is with watching Chris Basham and not the team anymore. I’m a 35 year old married man but Bash, Enda and Baldock are 3 players that I am in love with but not in a gay way.

I'm all for our legends making life changing dosh at other clubs - they owe us nothing, but Bash, Egan,O Connell are the main reason we are still PL, break it up at your peril as was shown when they've been absent.

 

[PLAIN BLADE]

Daily mail , they had Wilder to Sunderland at least ten times

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Article also says we’re after Foderingham as he’s a free agent

They got that reyt

We all know how irritated Wilder can get over being agitated by agents wanting moar muney,and he seemed a little like that after the game yesterday in the RS interview.

Pay him what he wants, for as long as he wants. He's United royalty.
