Its on SSN now that he has signed, they went to a guy at the Pompey training ground who said he had signed...
Just in on SSN. Watford agree 3m fee for the sale of Mike Williamson to Portsmouth, he is currently travelling down there.
Just been on SSN, excellent news! Now we have 3 hours to get a few players in! We should get about 2.5 million of that so I am sure we will have a couple of players lined up to come in this afternoon.
glad to see the back of him!!! £3 million is a great sum of money for someone that doesnt want to play for us! come on malky bring in 2 or 3 with this money!! i want billy sharp and the oreint defender ! who do you want ???
apparently we paid 400,000 and have to pay Wycome 25% on any profit over that - £650,000 and we get the rest, making a profit of just under 2 million. Not bad as long as we get a decent replacement. Wycome must be smiling over a million for a player that had just 5 months left on his contract !
Mandwereirieieieire off leyton orient as a replacement please A striker with pace Cue to the panic buying
Robbed, this is not good. He forced his way out the club after commtiing to us only a few months ago. Typical footballer @rsehole!!!
As I said on the other thread, good bit of business by Rogers, know it was undisclosed fee when we signed him but can't imagine it was more than 500-750k? Maybe a sell-on fee but still at least 1mil profit in less than 8 months.
They've been confirmed as buying Ben-Haim on SSN as well - are they going to drop both Kaboul and Mokoena, or is Williamson going there to sit on the bench?
But how do you replace a player of Willo's quality for a mil? Players like him are very difficult to find, let alone sign them
Glad to see the back of you, Mike. You're not fit to wear the shirt mate... :sign16: Cheers for the £2.5Mill profit.... Enjoy your relegation scrap at Pompey. I hope the wages lessen the pressure of struggling, I'm sure in your case, they will... :dismay:
One thing is that at least we've probably had a few days to be working on finding a replacement considering when he handed in his transfer request.
Hopefully mackawierere off orient, bouazza on free, heidar h on loan and adomah from barnet. I would be pleased, we can dream :sign15:
What happens about the transfer request, because we rejected it does that mean he's entitled to the money that he wouldn't have got if it was accepted?
Good price, lets just hope we have enough time to bring in any replacements. Any actual news about us bringing anyone in?
I always though it was less than the 400k and was 100k but with the add ons as he onlt had 6 months left of his contract at Wycombe. We won't know anyway as it will be 'undisclosed' like they all are nowadays.
Great deal 3 million. Fantastic. Feck off Williamson. Hopefully now we're getting closer to being financially secure, because to be honest I don't care what division Watford FC are in, as long as this club exists for me and others to keep talking about it on here I'm happy.
We must have accepted his transfer request or he would not be sold! Sad to see him go but we couldnt do anything about it. Shame he acted the way he did but cant blame him for wanting a shot at the premier league. As we seem to be bringing old legends back to the club we should consider using some of the money to get Ramon Vega back :]]
