his wages in the Championship would be paid the same as they are now by VT and his financial gamble to get CCFC into the Prem league ............ personally I would expect Man City to sell him in the next window ??

Just seen it on the bbc ticker that he's told bbc sport he wants to stay.

I understand that VT would pay and gamble on it, but bellamy surely would need to take a big hit on his wages, like about 60k or so?

100 percent true just spoke to a very close friend of his. Also hes apparently going mad with the players over the drinking situation which was very predictable. Get into them ......

if CCFC go up this season then CCFC owe Man C about £3mil in wages for him ?

What about Craig as Player Manager next season?... :ayatollah:

Yeah that was part of a clause in the loan contract to pay back the £2-3million they're paying given that we get promotion. However if we don't get promoted, I fail to see how we can afford to keep him..

Reading that article it seems that Bellamy is absolutely determined to lead us to promotion whether that is this season or next. I just wish every other player had half his passion, energy and committment because we would walk this division :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Well said M8, agree totally if all players had the same attitude as Bellamy, City would be unstoppable. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Not sure how as I thought the loan rules will be changing this summer to stop parent clubs paying majority of wages when players go out on loan?
