    Nothing against him but this is very good news. Good luck to him wherever he ends up.

    We should never have signed him, but he's handled himself as a true professional, wish him well.

    I'd be a true professional if I was being paid 25k a week to get splinters in my backside. #chepstowtweets

    Mutual Consent - Wonder how much that cost the club given the contract he was on.

    If we paid him half of his 25k a week for the remaining 12 months it will cost £2.5 million. #chepstowmaths

    I thought it was too good to be true for Blackburn to pay a fee for him.

    Ah well, that’s Colin’s transfer budget gone then. Never mind they’ll burn a hole in that £16 million reputed to have re dived next on Noone and Pilkington.

    £1.25 m transfer fee 10 months wages at £25k a week and a termination agreement of about half of what hes owed on his contract. Id say hes cost us just short of £3m all told. What a signing eh?. 4 goals costing a cool £750,000 a piece. We are a basket club

    Lambert told you all that did he?

    That said, I agree that this is yet another case of us having to pay someone to leave the club - as mentioned above, however much it's cost us, you have to think it's come out of the transfer budget.

    Like all football clubs you win some, you lose some. The loss on Lambert will be small potatoes on the profit we will make on Kenneth.

    That extra £16 million was a load of bollox rumour started on ****.
    Since 62 cleared it up on there the other day.

    If you run a football club wasting £3m on a geriatric then talk about getting it back by selling your prize asset then we really are a basket club arent we?

    No different to any other football club. Theres not a football club in the land that hasnt made mistakes in the transfer market. Manchester United, arguably the biggest club in the world, have made plenty.

    Besides, where the f*ck are you getting 3m from? Unless you are Lambert, his agent or someone privvy to the contracts at the football club then you havent got a scooby what he has cost us.

    I thought we got him on a free transfer. How do you know we have had to pay his contract up and if we did, what it cost us. You are guessing at best and deliberately exaggerating at worst. Almostly certainly Lambert will now get a hefty signing on fee from whichever club he joins, so it us not unreasonable to suppose that as a result he would have agreed to a much lower amount from us to cancel his contract and enable all this to happen. If he hadnt picked up an injury early on with us (not his fault) it is likely that he would have played many more games. How you can heavily criticise one of the best strikers to have played in this country in the last 15 years is beyond me.

    Mike should sell him to ***** for a forum record fee. They'd love his negativity and club bashing over there.

    Re: Lambert has left the building

    All for the best.

    I wish him well.

    Some elements do grate, but we are hardly the first, nor only, football club to have had to pay off a player that didn't quite work out, and we wont be the last.

    Some people love and live to moan! It cant do them much good.
