Morgan Rogers

Rogers wanted to stay?

No, Ray.

[Baggie_Nick]

£4m for an unproven kid was a sensible move by a club our size. Did we get a sell on clause?

Yea circa 10-15%

Can we one of those statements under Ziz’s posts that they have under Trump’s Tweets?

“This post may well have been made up.”

It's been confirmed by the man with the VHS

ITS NOT FAKE NEWS

Yep Albion fan too.

Sold to fund Bilic and coaching staff (circa £4m contracts)

Firstly we didn't sell him.  He refused to sign a professional contract and in accordance with FA regulations a fee was agreed between the two clubs, believed to be initially in the region of 4m though other reports in the national media reported it as 8m, so maybe it was 4m with add-ons rising to 8m.  Who knows?  (in the accounts presumably?) 

Secondly, you would think a club of the stature of WBA would have a 'Head Coach plus Assts ' budget, separate and not dependent on the spurious sale of a 16yr old first yr scholar or whatever they're called. 

This would seem to be the case as  Bilic and his two Assistants were appointed a month before Rogers signed for City.   Dicks joined in July. 

Are you seriously suggesting that if Rogers hadn't left we wouldn't have had a Head Coach/asst Head Coaches?

The Indian lad is out of commission.

The club refused to pay the fine he racked up through not returning “The Carlin’s Premiership’s Greatest Goals: 1994-97” to Blockbuster in time.

Your 2nd, 3rd and 4th paragraphs are true Athers but Rodgers didn’t refuse to sign. He was open to staying but a conversation between us, him and City led to him going... hence why the deal was agreed outright with City and didn’t go through the FA or tribunal proceedings. 

We could have retained Rodgers if else had wanted, he didn’t cause a fuss, he was happy to stay but when City offered 4+4 and further add-ons it felt like like a good deal all round

Our yoof loans dont seem to be doing that well atm. Palmer aside. Morton got a shoulder injury, Soule and Tulloch (injured) hardly featured, Windsor came back. Not heard much about Azaz at Cheltenham, although i think he's been playing.

Azaz was doing ok last time I checked.

Azaz has had a very good season. He's really bulked out and grown over the last 18 months. From what I've seen this season he has scored some lovely goals and looks to be creating things. One to watch.

Not sure what his family is like though......

[Birdman1811]

Griffiths has 11 clean sheets for Cheltenham.

That's not good for striker.

Each time I see the name Morgan Rodgers I’m expecting something waggle-esque on the thread.
