    The other day it was 'if we pay more than what we offered Smith TS would be stupid' and today it is 'we haven't paid 18k, TS is tight'. I suppose either way you'll be able to bash the chairman.

    And you do make me laugh Derbymiller. You don't 'buy' all this about funds being the deciding factor. If he wanted to be here he would. What a load of rubbish. Nobody can be that financially naive. Players says yes to both clubs. Both clubs enter negotiations with the loaning club. Club a offers 18k. The full wage. Yes, we will accept that gleefully says the loaning club. Club b, us, we will offer 10k. Nah, you're alright. Loaning club to player, we have accepted a bid from club a, you can join there. You can't join the other because in business we have to agree to a deal and we didn't. I know bugger all about business but it isn't that hard to understand what has happened.

    Crap news, wouldn't of given him 18k a week so club did the right thing. Hopefully we find someone else but heart says we probably won't.

    My point was that the impression that came out from the press chatter (could be crap!!) was that the two clubs had already agreed the financial element of the deal, so if Wigan came in with a better deal at the last minute, then Watford broke the agreement with Rotherham.
