Taarabt / Takeover Linked?

[rickqpr]

Surely the new owner (bidder) said they want Taarabt in the team as part of the deal, otherwise Flab would of got any money for him?

Quite possible

Or that it was purely greed, and if the bid was £15m, he'd no longer be here?!

Extra 1.5mill topping up his retirement fund....

Yeah but if he knew a takeover was happening and he wouldnt be here why would he not get whatever he could?

Sell Taarabt, and we're worth £80-90m in their eyes. They would want that back with the transfer. Selling Adel for £9m means they only get about £6m. Not gonna happen.

For the record, even with Taarabt, there shares aren't worth £6m, IMHO.

I agree about Taarabt. Another thing is people are saying Routledge deal isn't deal, maybe Warnock has told Routledge when the new owner comes in we will offer him the wages that he wants ?
