    Sold for a big fee in the summer then a la Parker.

    This is very telling:

    “I’ve got security now and I can just concentrate on the football side and staying in the division.

    “There were a few little fine details to try and sort out, but I was happy with the contract offer that was put in front of me to start with. Hopefully now other players will get contracts and we can all concentrate on keeping the club up.

    Wonderful, just Yann and Morro left out of the key players.

    Quite interesting and possibly indicative of RD's strategy when tied to the Yann situation. Still worried that all this change at this time of the season will be too disruptive, but we are in bottom 3 without disruption so maybe things can only get better. Big test of CP's powers now.

    Our best signing of the window.

    ... Although the cynic in me says that the long deal is merely to add sell-on value.

    Can we now assume that RD isn't a clown that's going to run us into the ground?

    And at least one of the Ben's (2-years) along with Hughes and Jacko in Player/Coach roles (1-year rollings)

    Some of the hysterics in the past 24 hours have been extraordinary, and then the switch in moods is something else.

    Apparently when you point that out it is laughable.

    Fantastic news. Genuinely delighted with this. The best thing about RD so far for me is the length of contracts he seems to be putting on the table. Sure, it's to guard an investment but how different is this to the Parky years where we gave out 2 year contracts because we couldn't risk not being able to pay anything longer? Wiggy's one of our few players who could do it in the Prem so this is a wonderful signing

    Someone once said

    "I'll believe it when it is on the OS"

    People often misquote or misunderstand that phrase but this is a classic example of what it means.

    And I hope I can say the same on the "Yann signs new deal" thread too.

    Good news, good player, good deal.

    cheered me right up, think he is a great player.

    Haven't commented on any of the doom and gloom threads.

    Well done Rhoys, you will play in The Prem (with us I hope)

    Terrific news. As someone already said, it's the best signing of the window so far. Makes you wonder who is doing the negotiating for the Club? Whoever it is, we'll done to them.

    I was trying to decide whether this was a bad day or a good day. Pass me my favourite malt please darling.

    although Mick Collins is being deeply cynical on Twitter, suggesting it sorts Liege's left back issues out next season

    Obviously dont want yann to go but if RD is going to be careful where he spends his money would rather it be on the younger established players who can still improve rather than 32 year olds with dodgy ankles. Great news and gives me some belief in the RD transfer policy ive been slating on here for the last few days! COYA!
