The Duke signs.

Marlon King going elsewhere

Is this official POG ?

I don't think Marlon King will leave unless we don't get promotion this season (but with the crazy world of football at present who knows) but I can certainly see Doris Henderson departing for Windsor Park-Harrods FC.

Also I don't think Aidy has much faith in Priskin & its reciprocated by the player. When he plays for Hungary he is a totally different player & full of talent as against Italy the other week. Sadly I think Tamas may well be leaving either in January for the Continent or at the end of the season.

They said he was signing today but everyone was surprised he played for the Albion last night injury risk etc etc.

I think he'll do well at this level. Still overpriced but thats what Chelsea have done to the football market & Sky are to blame too.

Great finish from the Duke. Looks very much like the player we paid the money for GB. ;D

Kabba actually worked hard for once.

Kabba set him up!!

Finished 1-1.

Not a bad away point, but we should be making the most of our opportunities. Frustrating subs once again - Jordan Shitstain for McAnuff & Bang Bang for the Duke ?? Heard that Williamson and McAnuff picked up their 5th yellow cards of the campaign and will miss Wolves..not 100% though, if true - i hope Ainsworth gets a start, and maybe we'll have signed that Whelan guy from Sheff Weds by then.

He was overpriced but sadly quite shocking. Goodbye. You wont be missed . One of the, if not the greatest flop to perform at the Vic.

THE greatest flop imo. Showed glimpses but for what we paid that ain't enough. Cheerio beardy.

Ellington deal - worth £2.6m?

Some light has been shed on how much the "substantial loan figure" Derby are giving us to have Nathan Ellington for next season could be, but as with a lot of deals, there are a lot of conditions...

So what is for sure, Derby do have Ellington on loan for next season, and they'll be paying his full wages for that time. Also, they're chucking us £1.5m for that opportunity.

That's money in the bank, or not leaving the bank in the case of his wages, which have been revealed to be £10,000 a week.

As for the rest of the sum, it all revolves around if they choose to sign him permanently, and of course, what happens after that.

They have the option to sign him on a free at the end of the year, but, with appearances, and (my guess) of a Derby promotion, an extra £1.1m could be coming Watford's way.

All this is taking place because if the deal was a straightforward transfer, we'd have to give West Brom an extra £750,000. WFC will still have to pay this amount, but it will be postponed til the end of next season. There's also the sum of £1m that would have been paid to West Brom dependent on Ellington's appearances in a Watford shirt, which with us not having been promoted seems a much bigger amount.

So there are all the facts, courtesy of the Watford Observer. My initial reaction is Nathan Ellington is definitely not worth half a million a year to Watford, and if all this is what has to be done to keep some more in the kitty for the next year, then well done to the club.

strange that, cos the figures that are mentioned on most derby boards range from £750K to £1 million and no further money to be paid. I think this guy has used to Earnshaw deal to get a figure and based his theory around that.

I don't think anyone really knows mate, just guessing. All WFC said is that the fee is 'undisclosed'.

fuck um ;D
