7 league goals (3 of which pens), which puts him at the heady heights of 16th in the top goal scoring charts of League Two.

An undoubtedly talented player whose moments of occasional mercurial brilliance disguised a lack of consistent end product and a problematic attitude. Also a potentially divisive dressing-room influence I would have thought, although that part seems to have improved this season.

A big loss from an excitement/entertainment perspective but if Curle can bring in a more consistent replacement then the move could be beneficial.  

As always good thoughts - just to add watching the FG game 3 times he lost the ball cheaply and absolutely no attempt to recover it - comparing him with the “slow” Buchanan the “useless” Hoskins and the “young” McWilliams I know who I would want in the trenches with me.

I love the wage figures banded about....
If people are as in the know about wages as they are about future signings(I’ve not seen a correct prediction in this regard since Jefferson il tell me mates Lake left the building) then I think we can take any wage info with a pinch of salt!


£4k a week on Football Manager 2018 if that helps?  Grin

I was dealing in the actual fact, not twisting and warping things to suite my view.  Wink

I think it’s a fact that you meant ‘suit’  Wink

No, what I really meant has a H in it but I remained polite.

I’d imagine no one on here has a clue who earns what.
Why would they?
It’s not as if KVV ever ran round the sixfields tavern waving his pay cheque around is it?

If people are as in the know about wages as they are about future signings(I’ve not seen a correct prediction in this regard since Jefferson il tell me mates Lake left the building) then I think we can take any wage info with a pinch of salt!
It was just over £5k a week .
I can’t tell you how I know but I do.

We're not in the trenches. We're on about the football pitch. For comparison, I wonder how many more league goals Hoskins, Buchs and Mcwilliams have amongst them?

Good luck to the lad. One of the big money boys had to go. Give about three or four of the youngsters pro contracts with the cash.
You could sign all of the 2nd year youth team players for half of the salary paid to KVV.

It was just over £5k a week .
I can’t tell you how I know but I do.
I also heard from a reliable source £4.5K per week. Either way, we are in the same ball park and we probably agree that getting a player off the wage bill, who has been keen to leave since almost the day he arrived while being the biggest earner, can only be a good thing.

£4.5K per week plus employers nic would equate to a total cost of roughly £5k per week so you may both be right.

Rather than guessing what KVV used to earn,how about guessing a few signings instead?
Maybe the same reliable sources will have inside knowledge   Roll Eyes Grin

I should think the Hallam Hope rumour may well have legs possibly?

So are Scunny paying him £5K a week ? If not, then surely he would have sat on his contract at NTFC. OK he might have accepted a little bit less to get the move he wanted or did we pay him to leave?

I expect that are paying him close to what we were. They have also had a 200k but rejected for a defender today, so they must have money to spend.

They are paying exactly the same in salary but we have lost 65% of what we paid for him. There you go.

Or, given the two unreliable fonts of knowledge stating these facts, they may both be spouting their usual ITK s***e! Smiley

You don't know that at all. You don't know what they are paying him and you have no idea how much they paid for him either so don't pretend you do

I don't know why there are people here who were glad to see KVV go! I get the money angle, I understand it's a neccessity and could be better spent, but we're a much weaker team without him.

So KVV is off to league one, might as well get rid of Crooks, Turnbull & Pierre at the same time the only other players in the squad capable of playing at a higher level leaving just the detritus.
Maybe in ten years when this manager and squad are long gone we might get lucky and stumble across another Wilder but I won’t hold my breath.
