wonder if this really happened

Sun Jun 16, 2013 4:01 pm

The very good friend of mine who is close to the FAW told me a number of times that because they have to be copied into the majority of the paperwork of any transfer offer which takes place between any welsh side then this story is 100% true. For years he has told me this story which I've always doubted to be truthful until he actually swore on his kids life that it did happen.

he said the following:

when City bid for Leo from Doncaster they bid £200,000. However Doncaster thought it was a mistake and the offer was actually £20,000 so they turned the offer down until City said that the bid was £200k and not £20k which Doncaster soon cashed in.

'If' that was the case then is it any wonder SH wasted loads of money when in control ?

Has anyone else heard this story ?

Nope but heard many stories about the welsh fa members and committees looking after themselves whilst welsh football goes down the drain at grass roots and kids levels.

Sorry Craig I thought you were a CCFC fan and would welcome information on how the club they support was run during SH's time in charge..?

You know who I'm talking about mind. Whilst I agree it could be a non-story the fact of the matter is that SH is showing further interest and if he can't get a simple transfer done properly then what future has the club got if he's still a part of the organisation.

Firstly we paid 300,000 for him and LFW was widely regarded as one of the best signings of the early SH signings so Ivreally dint get your point??!

So if the club paid 10 times what a player is really worth at the time then surely any further involvement by SH is a worry

But city bid 200k and doncaster turned it down as they thought it was 20k then city told them its 200k so doncaster cashed in, fair enough if they bid 200k and donny thought they was getting 20k and accepted that, even though it was rotherham he come from :laughing5:
