sheffield_dave Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Just wondering, but does Beevers leaving signal the end of our £20m rated defensive lineup from the other year?* If I recall correctly our lucrataive backline contained Tommy Spurr, Frankie Simek and Mark Beevers, although I can't remember who the fourth money man was. Curious as to what the cumulative total of their departures was. I assume the £250k received for Mark Beevers is only the first installment of the £5m transfer fee we are expecting from Millwall? *Disclaimer: You may have had to be a member of Owlstalk circa 2008 to understand this post.

PeteG_1984 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Add Lee Grant to that as well for the entire back line. What is the total of those 5 fee-wise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffield_dave Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Ah yes, Richard Wood. We should be alright in January then. I'm sure the next installment from Coventry might see us right for a new loan signing. Spurr - Wood - Beevers - Simek End of an era. Goodnight sweet prince, the £20m backline of dreams and deep pockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hack-Abusi Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Grant - £2m Simek - Free Spur - 150k? Beevers - 250k so from £20m defence, down to under £3m in the space of 2 seasons or so - great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBoyBeevers Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Grant - £2m Simek - Free Spur - 150k? Beevers - 250k so from £20m defence, down to under £3m in the space of 2 seasons or so - great Not a chance. It was about a quarter of that IIRC from that year's accounts. Can't remember how much Wood went for but they barely fetched £1 million between all 5 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chriss Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Lets be honest. Is anyone really that surprised that we got flip all for players? We never do. Never have. Never will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigrbuk Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 750k for grant I thought. The Star reckons we got significantly more than £250k for Beevers though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
