Rumours - summer signings

[offshore_arab83]

Was it the same guy that told you Brian Graham was on £3k per week? ������ £650 per week is good money for a championship player.

Joe, if you remember i never said that, he was in liquid nightclub after the 2014 final claiming he was on £3k a week something at the time i said was absolute sh1te...

Was waiting for you in snug on Sunday, maybe see you this Sunday?

Edit to say i wasnt in liquid after the cup final either this was all over social media and other forums

Snug Sunday?

Marine Underscore Middle Eastern Subject Four Score and Three speculates very wisely. Donaldson is one of the last McNamara signings, i.e. identifying highly potential young talent, attract them to Tannadice with the shop window promise, pay them a good wage for a year or two and then sell them on for millions, bringing to the Club (or other beneficiary ??) great financial profit. Potentially great business strategy which should be part of a 5 year plan or something like that? Unfortunately the game is littered with young players who showed great football 'potential' but ultimately their development did not live up to their earlier promise for various reasons.

Donaldson would have been signed up on a good wage, potentially as the new Richard Gough. Donaldson was one of those who would have been invested in financially, hoping to get a much greater return further down the road.

I'm not sure what that adds to the debate? We all know this...

Zeph Appledaughter, I must ask...'Are thou following the debate?' Much of the debate has been about what United are paying Donaldson. Suggestions range between £1300 pw - £5000 pw. Some are of the opinion that Donaldson is receiving something towards the lower end of the scale. I am interjecting with the circumstances surrounding the signing of Donaldson, which would suggest the lower end of the scale is very unlikely. I personally have no clue what Donaldson gets paid by United, BUT, I do think the circumstances surrounding his signing contributes greatly to the debate if for no other reason but to keep these things in mind for when we speculate!!

We can't know how much he earns and, let's be honest, it's an irrelevance. We all know we need to get rid of him, we all know doing so will allow us to sign a better player (or players). Speculating in his salary is pointless.

As often happens Trebs you intervene with the right focus. Whatever Donaldson is on (wage), his departure would allow us to sign another player (some speculate two!).

I think it's that I find your Thesaurus inspired verbosity difficult to follow and if honest a bit irritating. I think we all know that Donaldson is on a "good" wage and if we get rid, we can sign one or two others. There is no way he is on anything like £2k per week.

Okay Zeph, so Donaldson is on a 'good wage,' but it's not 2 grand a week? I don't know what he is being paid. You seem to know what he is not being paid. Care to suggest what he is likely getting paid? I apologise for my presentations being difficult to follow and a bit irritating. If you consider me in the same vein as Dundee Football Club I'm sure you will be able to live with it?

No clue?

Possibly the fact that this was the norm yet the figure i was quoted was being dismissed by smeds

Even if Donaldson does move on he wont get the same money elsewhere so we will still be paying part of his wage. Hopefully he will be getting paid enough to allow us to bring in Quinn.
