Would i be right in saying our starting 11 for the cardiff game cost about 6 million and 3 million of that was on Reidy, not bad for a team 3rd in the championshit, and pards has only spent about 9 million in the year he has been with us.
According to the list of players on another thread Pards has spent £8,680,000 and that depends on a couple of players (Thatcher and Varney) signed under stage payments that increase with the number of matches played.
Of those who started last night:
Weaver - free
Mills - loan signing
Powell: free
Fortune: from the youth team
Sodje: loan signing
Holland: £900k
Reid: worth £3m with stage payments etc.
Sam: from the youth team
Ambrose: £1.5m (estimated)
Zheng Zhi: £1.25m (rising to £2m).
Iwelumo: free
So a total of £6,650,000 plus extra money to be paid out when ZZ plays a certain number of games.
In fairness what did Cardiff's team cost? I doubt over £1m, most of their squad are either cheap purchases, frees or Bismans or like Robbie Fowler and JFH going down the one last pay day route.
