Classic agent marketing.

The key sentence in that report being that ‘there is nothing concrete on the table yet’.

Interesting to see that Wilf’s agent keeps putting it to the press that we’ve offered him £200k per week for 4 years. This again has to be bollox because that sort of money would be pure madness from us.

True and however disappointed people might be to see Wilf leave I imagine QPR and Reading fans are more disappointed.
It's football's food chain and our part in it; the difference between those clubs with the most money and everyone else is that they can exchange like for like when one of their stars leave.

Only 18 days till his contract ends, FFS make a decision

i think Wilf made his decision immediately after the low ball Arsenal and then Everton bids were rejected 4 years ago. I could understand his disappointment with Arsenal (however, offering only £40m and then signing Pepe instead for £72m had nothing to do with Palace), however, Everton FFS.

That season he was terrible and pretty much sulked his way through every game. During the next year or so i read he had changed agents 2 or 3 times and at one point signed up with one of the 'mega' agents in order to get a move. None materialised.

In the last few years he has knuckled down and his performances have improved, although he is not the player he was 5 or so years ago.

I suspect the advice he was given was keep your head down, take your big salary and when you are a bosman the offers will come. I think a 2 year offer from any Champions League club is a no brainer.

I dont know if he still lives in Woldingham, if he does 5mins to Biggin Hill, 3/4m for a private jet (if he hasn't got one already), and Bobs your Uncle.

No need for sack cloths Hrolf. Your guess is as good as ours.
