interesting comments from Boothroyd, good insight into our position:
I knew he was going to go because of where we find ourselves financially.
"That's all part of a club like Watford at this moment in time. We have to sell. I want to be in a position as a manager where I can trade, and I can't even bring in loan players at present.
"So we need to make sure we get Danny packed off and say thanks very much for all that he has done - and I mean that genuinely - but you can't deny a player the chance to play in the Premier League, and you can't deny me the chance to get some players in."
[cite]Posted By: BlackForestReds[/cite]Apparently he turned down £20k a week at Rangers, demanding £25K and good luck to him, he's mosdt likely got it. This weakens one of our opponents.
as with most of these things, don't necessarily believe all you read when it comes to wages. Though i have no idea if true or not.
I thought he had a decent World Cup. I like the idea of the competition, but I suppose work permit restrictions would rule it out here. Perhaps we could try one in the poorer EU countries.

I was thinking just that. I'm sure there's more rabbits in the hat.
Would've have been nice but he's gone to a prem side. Watford fans must be having a good time. Anyone got a link to one of their message boards?
Lets hope we can get some decent defenders in on loan or to buy and unearth a new Mark Kinsella from somewhere.
they should have gone mad & spent some money - secured their Prem position and then been ok.
Right

Messi Shittu
Could we (should we) sign him as a free agent?
I'm sure a decent championship team would like to add a goalscoring defender to their team.
