I wonder if the Hartlepool game was possible or is it still frozen solid up there.

Does anybody out there know if there was a sell on clause for Gareth Bale, reading the Sunday papers it would be quite lucrative if there was, having said that, knowing the great business man that Rupert Lowe was, we would probably have to give Spurs a fee for turning Gareth Bale into the player his now.

How come we never seem to have sell on clauses for young players leaving, who barring terrible injury are all going to move for more money in the future, yet those coming here seem to have them?
It's not just Lowe, we didn't have a sell on when Shearer left for £3.3m and moved again for £15m. That wasn't because he was a better player, he wasn't he had had a bad injury by then, it was just a rising market.
