I’d hazard a guess at half his current wage for two years. Whether we like it or not, if he can get a similar contract again it’s investment for his family the rest of his life.
I would have liked him to stay for another year or two on reduced...
Given the size of our squad id have liked him to have stayed as a squad player but we were never paying the wage he wants.
As a free agent, he'll likely get that wage elsewhere.
This is totally why, we are who we are. How many Dads, Grandads, Brothers, Sisters etc have made a choice like this over time. must be a good few and that sense of belonging, stems from those small but wonderful gestures!

Said the same to Macavennie, how many times have you been there over the years, that's what yesterday was about mate. Generations of blues over scores of years. Cherish it that you were lucky enough to ever go there, some people never did.
