I think Taylor also wanted to play for Bowyer1

Pearce signed a new deal a year after he originally signed, I imagine that bumped it up.Alwaysneil said:I remember reading recently that we are paying a small fraction of Bielik’s wages.
The big wage earners must be the championship player:
Vetokele
Bauer
Sarr
Solly (maybe)
After that aren’t most people on league one wages?
Indeed curiously, 4 of our highest paid players will be defenders - Bauer, Sarr, Solly and Pearce - which goes against conventional wisdom!
Reeves is probably on a decent for L1 salary, when you consider how hard it was to sign him and the other options he was weighing up0 -
And Marshall, Bradford offered him their highest wages they ever had, outside of the premier league. So I heard.killerandflash said:

Ajose is on a lot for a few more weeks.1

Lyle talked about in a recent interview... Felt that the board were taking the piss a little bitMartinCAFC said:
Wasn't that more to do with location than wages though? I thought Taylor wanted to stay local i'm sure I read somewhere.CafcSCP said:

i.e. He wanted a small bonus and apparently they made a comment about him paying them if he didnt achieve it

He previously recommended winning the championship Play off match but no one listened to him5

I have replied, suggesting that not all his decisions have been exactly rational! I now expect to be blocked!0 -
Thomas Driesen has 284 Twitter followers which suggests that rather than being an expert on transfers he is no more than a sad computer geek who got lucky persuading a sad, lonely Belgian millionaire that he was something special3 -
miserable little parasite can go do himself a proper nasty
surprised his mum let him stay out so late so far from home where she has to blow his nose and wipe his bum
horrible little scab I wouldn't piss on him if he caught alight
I know that 'trophy' is a tacky bit of tin but it'll need a proper disinfection after the greasy little onanist has smeared all over it
Can't let him or his abhorrent overlord take the shine off our weekend or season, may they both rot3 -
Maybe if he saw Roland, at the very least he may have told Roland to get Bowyer and his team signed up straight away. That is if he knows the slightest thing about football. They must already be signed then! Phew!!!!0

Deleted his earlier tweet and updated his profile picture instead.
Clearly done this to wind us all up, his parting shot possibly.
Driesen doesn't realize some of us have long memories and won't forget things like this.

He used to have 40,284 but he has spent the last year blocking all Charlton fansmogodon said:

Nasty parasite, putting his grubby little mitts on the trophy. I hope Darren Pratley bottled him after he grabbed it.5
-
I don't do Twitter, but if anyone does and hasn't yet been blocked by him, please point out the irony in the fact that holding the trophy was only possible because he, his compatriots, and his paymaster got us unnecessarily relegated in the first place.4

@Oh_Yoni_BoyOh_Yoni_Boy said:Following him on Twitter he quite creepily "likes" a lot of tweets from our young female fans, it's like he doesn't know we can see it - super unprofessional.
Just seen this and looked into his 'likes'. You're right, there seems to be a handful of our young female fans, none of whom follow him, but creepily he follows them and 'likes' a lot of there tweets, not even football related tweets, same girls again too.
Then when you look at some of the stuff he follows
- Scout-A-Champ (@scout_champs) Africa's foremost football networking platform! Where champions are born...
- All kinds of weird looking online games
- Loads of accounts related to Bitcoin and other stupid online currency's
I really can't believe how creepy and weird this guy is and how he's been stealing a living for so long at our club. I want him gone first thing before a takeover's even been announced on the OS.

Perhaps @Ollywozere can answer this ... was he part of the celebration party at the team hotel or wherever it was the club celebrated? If so, how did he get invited? Is he on the payroll?1

He looks like he thinks he’s holding a lyre or his favourite cat or something, the stupid, stupid boy. That is so not the way to hold a football cup, unless there’s something wrong with you.
What a muppet.

But despite that shocking blunder, you’re still connected to the museum.Henry Irving said:JamesSeed said:
Anthony Seed ran the scouting operation, not Angus. Angus helped out, as a lower league manager.Henry Irving said:Seed, Lawrence, Curbs, Bowyer.
None has big budgets but instead relied on good scouts and their own judgement (Curbs had watched Darren Bent 15 times) to bring in players with the right skills to fit into the side with the right CHARACTER.
More money = more success! Well, none of needed a chart to show a correlation there but the best managers buck that trend.
Fergie had great success at Aberdeen before United.
And a director of football is just as likely to get it wrong as a manager.
What is needed is a clear, medium term plan and a skilled team of scouts and coaches, who trust each other, to implement it. Could be a manager who has the final say or a DOF but there has to be a clear plan.
Hence why Wolves worked and Fulham didn't.
Gallen and Bowyer fit the bill. They don't need Driesen. He brings nothing.
Bowyer as manager doesn't do it all, as Driesen says. He works with people with the right skills and experience that he trusts. Gallen has his scouts, Avory and Euell know the kids, Lee has other contacts.
Seed had Angus Seed, his brother to scout in the north east. It is nothing new.
All the data in the world doesn't replace knowing what you are talking about.
As I typed it I couldn't remember if it was Anthony or Angus and I would have got away with if it wasn't for you!

His ability to wind up people with a posed photo is customary, as I'm sure he's aware. Whoever is running the show should get him to quietly to wind his neck in, remember being half term he would have been allowed to stay up a little later and he probably had a baby ham or two.0 -
Does anyone know who scouted Patrick Bauer?
I remember reading that we were looking at another player in a certain game but Bauer caught the eye and the attention switched to him.

The more I look at that photo, the more I am convinced that it is Photoshopped. If I had to guess, I would say that was Solly's body. The answer may lie in any photos that emerge from the Hotel Celebration Party showing what each player was wearing.stackitsteve said:
