Micah Richards,Glen Johnson and Carlton Cole

All a no from me.

Exactly the type & quality of player we should be avoiding on the road back to 'normality'

Will send out all the wrong messages yet again, free transfer equates to massive wages.

Signing the Swindon lads was great, that's our level for now & for the next season or two, lets keep it that way until we have undone all the craziness of the last few years. Let's be normal again.

Really don't want another batch of multi-millionaires players who are basically looking for a fat contract to leech a couple more £million whilst they go through the motions.

Top post Jimmy. I said i'd like Richards but he would want big wages.

We are better off signing viv Richards

[AlamoR]

better off signing Cliff Richards. Have to keep away from the youth team though.

No thanks to all 3

Been there, done that. Youthful & enthusiastic please. And on less than 20k a week ideally.

Signing for Villa for £65,000 a week according to various rags.

EXACTLY the reason we should and did steer clear.

Any idea what the wages are for any of our 3 signings??

[dogsrrs]

If we can get shot of all our dead wood we don't want to get left with all young players will need a couple of seasoned pros around the team ,but certainly not any of those 3 mentioned , more players in the mould of Hill and Derry who still have a hunger an enthusiasm for the game

[West Acton]

Talking of old pros always impressed when I see Shaun Maloney play wasted in America I would not mind him in the squad

Aint got a sccoby but if I was to have a guess I'd say it was no more than 10-12k a week at the most, incentive & bonus based more likely.

[Kevin Mcleod]

My guess would be 15's each for the swindon lads, and 25 for jet. Think jet will be our marquee signing this season.

No way 25k for a player stepped up from League 1. Can't see that at all.

Yeah also wouldnt have clue, but 10-12k is a hell of a lot better than the reported £65,000 for Richards, which roughly is/was the norm for our players.
