>>This is a new one on me and I tried to keep a fairly close watch on
stuff like this.
Which players didn't take all the money due on their contracts ?
Genuine question.<<
Alan Smith waived a loyalty bonus that was due to him if he was sold
without asking for a transfer. This equated to a percentage of the transfer
fee
(10%?).
It was a noble move - asking for a transfer (to ManU) made him look worse
in the eyes of the Leeds numpties than Kewell, who used his slimy agent to
shaft us good and proper.
Then again, Alan was presumably getting a decent salary from ManU. And
waiving a bonus was as much as he could do under the rules. Danny Mills only
did what everyone else did - "football debts" are payable in full under FA
rules.
To suggest Danny Mills "put us where we went" is ridiculous. You know full
well who the culprits are.
