£20m in an up front one-off cash payment and shake their hands… we could do with the cash, he’s off the books and we look for cheaper younger options.
As time rolls on I’m starting to think that Parker’s remit really was a project and not an immediate return… We’re clearing out a lot of the ex PL earners and I fully expect Brooks to follow at some point this season… Maybe we are starting to think a bit more long-term and learning from the financial mistakes of the last 5/6 years… Get us back to basics… ensure we stay in the champ (at least) and rebuild this failed squad…
According to this *ahem* trustworthy source. Brooks isn't a big earner.
