Don't give your rival for promotion a leg up
It really is simple
Ok if its that simple, get Chien's or Bean's number and tell them that eh (if you dare!), because remember they sold him to Luton, NOT me!.

Yes we could have just let him so called 'rot' on the subs bench for the rest of the season, and then let him go for free anywhere in the summer. But as Ive said, they the owners might have insisted on a sale and some profit etc, regardless of whether it was to a rival or not.
