Don't know about Wood, but Piroe is def. worth £12m in today's market.Quote:

Hopefully things are changing at ccfc but for decades we have been way behind Swansea

At least we only got to face him once this season, always a thorne in our side.
I guess it’s because they have always played a certain way, and a lot of clubs want players who play that way so will pay the money.
Wonder if things will changed under the new manager.
We can't get twopence for any of our players.
They'll sign a striker from the Dutch league for 2 million who will look like pele by the time he plays against us, and the morph into jeff chandler in most games after that.Quote:

I’m not talking about him, I’m responding to the post “They certainly extract the maximum amount for the players they sell”Quote:

Piroe seems a great deal in todays market.
It's what he does.Quote:

Zohore was £7m profit , as WBA paid the add ons following promotionQuote:

But....the Zohore deal (which was quite incredible) along with the sales of Steve MacLean and Joe Mason stand alone as being the few transactions when the club has sold really well.Quote:
