SSN are saying that Brighton are trying to get Wayne Bridge in on loan. Now that would be a signing for them. Cardiff need a couple of quality signings to get near the top of the Division. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Perhaps Bridge has lowered his expectations to get a game.

If people think we're nuts trying to get Bellamy on 35K a week but Bridge will be on double that and Man City are likely to want a high percentage paid :shock:

Hes on 80k a week at Citeh. Thats why his career (not his bank balance) has gone down the toilet.

No other club in their right mind are going to pay even half that for 30+ full back.

To be fair if I was Wayne Bridge I wouldn't walk away from the sort of contract he is on at Man City. What a lucky bugger though, gets a huge contract when Abramovich purchased Chelsea then he shoots of Manchester after their Abu Dabi takeover!

It's a hard life for some!!!

That's what you call more money than sense.


I remember Martin O'Neil commenting on his fitness being much worse than they expected when they signed him from Man City last season.

I can't see him lasting long before he tears a hamstring.

He certainly won't last the full 90 week in week out.
