He wanted to leave and couldn’t get a club for that money, nobody wanted him! Knuckled down on his safe wedge in the conference.


Ever decided to leave a job then when you actually stop to think about it you decide to stay with what you have? Only human like the rest of us...

Do you know what he earns? Whether it is out of kilter for the league we are in?

He’s a professional footballer isn’t he? Since when did footballers think about anything other than their salary?

You only have to look at the substance’s benches in the top half of the Premier League to see I’m right. Full of players happy to take top dollar rather than think of what’s best for their career.

Exactly that. Not that you’d blame them obviously as it’s a short career, but why people can’t see this is baffling? I don’t blame Weir for sitting on his guaranteed better money, but why some are making him into some kind of hero for his dramatic u turn is mad.

Nothing like a wild generalisation to prove your argument...

Not making him out to be a hero - like pretty much everyone from last season he has a lot to prove.

But I am not going to claim I know stuff I don’t or assume anything to fit my story just to have that story...

Ps I don’t think I have ever voluntarily changed jobs for less money - have you?

Yes, Nobody is making him out to be a hero - and there's nothing wrong with looking for a better paid job at a higher level.

No which is why he’s stayed, yet again. It’s a no brainer for him. You’re arguing with yourself now.

Are you sure? I'll offer you Scott Parker and Steve Sidwell to Chelsea. How about Bony from Swansea to Citeh?

Hasnt Martin Allen invited fans to contact the club and he will speak with them regarding any concerns they have?

Maybe this would be the ideal time for some of his doubters over this decision to take him up on his offer.

I'm sure he would relish the opportunity to speak with those far more knowledgable of the situation than himself.

God I hate this league.
