Granted we might not be picking up all the wages but if these numbers are true sort of squashes the 'penny pinching loans'

George Hirst is on £18,000 a week with Blackburn. That is basically why we didnt get him on loan this time round though he wanted to come back, and Cowley wanted him. We were not prepared the proportion of his wage it would have taken to get him here.

Weekly wages. But how much a year? Say, £18,000 x 52? £936,000. Really?

I can see why the club want to cut down on loans now. Cullen's comment about too much of the transfer budget going on them seems spot on.
Super Matt Macey in goal...

We won't be paying all of Piggott's wages, just a proportion. The question is: "What proportion?"
