NIKI1234 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) If Wellens is worth £1 mill then what is Whittaker going to be worth I remember a poll at the beginning of last season on here voting on who was the best player LMAO Edited July 1, 2009 by NIKI1234 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danoafc Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Bet Richie is well impressed his own Dad is telling people how much his son is earning From what I've heard his old man is a fairly well known gob:censored:e round the pubs of Middy.

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I think he's worth that money too. In a team with more quality it will suit him far more than it did here. You could always tell he was a quality player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaddy the owl Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 From what I've heard his old man is a fairly well known gob:censored:e round the pubs of Middy. Dan, I dont know you from Adam, but i would LOVE to see you call Rick a "gob:censored:e" to his face. Brushing your teeth that night would be easy, you could hand them to a friend and get them to do it for you. I know Rick pretty well and he is anything but a gob:censored:e, he is a very friendly guy who will chat to anyone. But he wouldnt take to kindly to someone calling him that. And you certainly wouldnt want a slap round the chops off him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly Mr Shankly Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Aye and someone it seemed we didnt try hard enough to keep hold of. To be fair, and I don't know the exact circumstances around it, I think we tried but couldn't get close to matching what Dancaster were prepared to give him. That's the problem when someone's contract runs out, clubs can save themselves a transfer fee and plough it into bonus payments and wages. In a way I'm glad we're a club that doesn't try to throw money down the drain chasing what we can't afford. On a similar note Scunthorpe reported running on losses of close to £1m in order to achieve promotion last season. They achieved it, but only by the skin of their teeth scoring with 2 minutes to go on the last day, and squeezing past MK Franchise Scumbags and Millwall in the playoffs. A very risky strategy and not one I'm a fan of even if it does come off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye true, I was just pissed off we failed to keep hold of him as alongside Eyres, Chris Armstrong and Fitz Hall he is one of he best Latics players I have seen in my time supporting them. But the clubs security is more important than one player I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you certainly wouldnt want a slap round the chops off him. Chaddy, course you know me. Never met the bloke myself, which is why I said it was what I'd heard from others. And in your opinion is that he's not a gob:censored:e then fair play, but as I say, it's only what I've been told. Frankly, I've no desire whatsoever to frequent any Middleton pub, so I'm unlikely to bump into the bloke regardless. Still, I'm not sure I'd want my old man discussing my contract of employment with random folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaddy the owl Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Dan, sorry mate, i didnt mean it to sound like that, ive just read back through my post and maybe that looks a little nasty. I just know that Rick is a nice guy to talk to but he wont stand for anyone calling him that. I did understand that you were not calling him that yourself and that you were going off others peoples comments. I certainly woudnt WANT to see him knocking 7 shades out of someone. I used to go in the pub with him every week as i was living with his neice and him and Irene (wellens mum) run the karaoke in my local pub. From all my time of drinking in pubs in Middy over the years i can only name one person i have met who was a complete knob end and a big time charlie and that was David May. Biggest tosser you could ever have the misfortune of meeting. By the way Dan, which Dan are you? i know way too many Dans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've sent you a pm anyway. Perhaps I'd heard wrong about him, he might well be a decent bloke. I suppose one mans meat and all that...............
