Decent read...

...this is a good paragraph:

"It is no secret that Troy Archibald-Henville was not a roaring success in his time on loan with us from Spurs before Christmas. But his wages were extremely modest. And we were able to send him back without paying any financial penalty. Contrast that situation with a number of other players who have been "our own players" over the years. The likes of Raymond de Waard, Fernando Derveld, Julien Brellier, David Strihavka, Marc Libbra, Steve Walsh?every single one of them, and many more, have been contracted players. And every single one of them has had to be paid up in order to get them off the books."
