Considering strikers normally go for a hell of a lot more than defenders in the transfer market.. and YES i do know owen only had 10 months to go.. but what are your views on Woodgate going to Real for 50% more than owen and also getting payed (going by what i read) 20,000 pounds more a week!!!!!! any views?

Regarding the difference in wages , maybe Woodgate wanted to stay at newcastle MORE than Michael wanted to be at Liverpool hence the bigger carrot to tempt him away

Eiher that or he has a better agent

Certainly raised my eyebrows, i would think the Geordies would be well pleased with that bit of business

i think this a sorry thing to happen to Sir Bobby..

coz newcastle defence without woodgate... is just pure LOUSY!!!!!!

i dun think they stand a chance.. even for the fourth spot... coz a leaky defence will nvr do them any good...

by **chiunn** » Fri Aug 20, 2004 3:15 am

i think PUSSY wil be a better word than LOUSY to describe their defence without him!

With £15M to spend there are plenty of room to make a lousy defence look decent.. One could sign 7 defenders of Josemi`s calibre with that kind of money

I think the reason RM decided to pay more for a defender than our Michael is simple. Real need quality defenders, but they have an abundance of attacking players. If they hadn't of landed MO it would have hurt their pride more than their plans of European dominance.

With 15 mil to spend they wont give it to Sir bobby as he is leaving at the end of the year.. they will keep it and let the new manager spend it at seasons end.. they may give him a bit but highly doubt whether they will give him too much as he isnt in their plans after this year!!!

Believe it or not, they have the same agent from the SFX Management.....................and Beckham as well!!!

Isn't the real Dalglish intertwined with SFX... I read somewher he has a financial interest
