Neil Warnock rubbishes speculation over Tomlin's wages

Lee Tomlin was the subject of comments from Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony this week, with suggestions that the playmaker was earning £28k a week.

Here’s Warnock’s response:



NEIL WARNOCK:


"He’s trying to get out of a hole with his own fans. At least get the facts right."

"I bet Tomlin wishes he was on that money. He’s nowhere near that, miles away. I like Darragh but sometimes because of who he is he says what he likes and to hell with the consequences."

"I think he was trying to get out of a hole with his own fans. They wouldn’t have had a cat in hell’s chance of signing him."

Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony seems to have revealed just how much Cardiff City are paying former Bristol City star Lee Tomlin.


Bristol Post

December 2017

The 28-year-old left the Robins to join Cardiff on a three-year deal in the summer after an undisclosed fee was agreed - reported to be around £2.9 million.


At the time, Bluebirds boss Neil Warnock described Tomlin as his "number one" target and he was seen as the club's marquee summer signing.

Warnock said: "If I had a choice of any other player I've been after over the summer, Tomlin would have been at the top of my list."

And that came with a decent pay-package, according to MacAnthony.

The Posh chairman revealed during a impromptu question and answer session that Tomlin was a target for the League One club as they looked to bring him back to one of his former clubs.

However, it seems they were blown out the water by the offer from the Bluebirds.

Peterborough Today reports that MacAnthony told the fans: “Lee contacted me and asked about coming back,”
