How much for Hodgey?

[Ian]

5k? 10k? More? Well Watford have just been ordered by a tribunal to pay £2750 for Omari Coleman who they recently signed from Dulwich Hamlet. He was their version of Hodgey and their top scorer for a couple of seasons.

 

I'd have thought Hodgey's goals are worth more to us than £2000 and I suspect Dulwich are sitting there thinking the same about Coleman. What do I care though?! That's Coleman and Scott Fitzgerald from Northwood for less than three grand for the pair. Good work, Mr Lewington!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/icon14.gif" alt="" />

I'll give you a tenner as long as the first class is delivered before 9 am, and he doesnt annoy the dogs!

[charlie]

not quite relevant any more though sweetie is it since he's no longer a postman...

[Roger Rebel]

And the rich get richer and the poor get poorer a Ian?

[Barry Scott]

if it goes to a tribunal we'll get f*ck all for him

[Woody SUFC]

if Craig O'Connor had a £5k bid turned down two season ago for him he'd be around the price range. so £5-£10 grand...not that anyone would pay that money

[BFR]

did the club who bid £5K for O'Connor employ David Blunkett as a scout? Who in their right mind would pay money for him?

[Woody SUFC]

BFR did Slough have David Blunkett is a coach when they let him go? Very good at this level with a proven goalscoring record!

 

Bloody hell did i just defend Him!?

[BFR]

Proven goalscoring record? I bet he's never scored 20 league goals in a season before

You can't blame the club for the fee a tribunal sets, Roger. As for Scotty he wasn't under contract and Watford play a pre-season game at Northwood every single year which gives them more revenue than ten home games as they recognise the need to support local clubs.

And this from a closet fan of Arsenal who poach youngsters from all over Europe for nothing at all!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Completely unrelated but someone on the Isthmian forum reckons Hodgey is the ugliest player he/she has seen this season <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'll leave that assessment up to you, Charlie, with your female perspective but from a chap's outlook, he must be doing something right, and I think we all know what I mean!

[Matt]

Steer ugly? Have you seen his girlfriend? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

[GarySTFC]

So that's why he wears the extra long shorts....

[charlie]

i think he's either got a sparkling personality or is indeed in need of those long shorts...

[Roger Rebel]

Who did they poach from europe?

[Martin]

I think I know what your asking Rog in which case the answer is: Fabregas (sp?) the 17 year old midfielder from Spain who Arsenal took on a free. Arsene Wenger has a truly great scouting network and he was playing for either Real or Barca's under 18 when he was spotted. They swooped in and offered him a deal before he signed pro forms.

I seem to recall one of the Milan clubs (?) not being overly happy about the Anelka situation either. They poached him for nothing then sold him for £23 million.
