My athletic body mind you is one of a professional darts player.

So Joe Ward has got Sonny Bradley’s hands and Josh Vickers has got Asmir Begovic’ gloves. Weird day.

hintonsboots reacted to deanoakaram4life in Jason Knight - joined Bristol City
Perfect timing from Knighty. I don’t think there is any way he stays with us this window. All the noises around him are implying that he wants higher level football. We need to get as much as possible for him so we can reinvest into the squad, hopefully there is a bidding war coming….

hintonsboots reacted to Loughborough Ram in Summer Rumour Mill
Nixon is playing the odds. We need a right back, Warne says that we are very close to 5 signings, surprise, surprise, Nixon puts 2 and 2 together and dreams up a 'fact'

It's been common knowledge that it was £8m rising to £10m upon promotion to the PL.
I'm not reading through those linked articles, but it states £8m owed to Arsenal. I'm assuming that is in relation to when we went in to admin, and still Ower Arsenal the remaining balance.
At the start of admin, we 'owed' just under £8.4m for Bielik, Jozwiak and any other player with clauses. This figure will have included all potential add-ons such as appearances, goals, or promotion.
Knock off £2m for Jozwiak and £2m for Bielik related clauses (promotion), and it would have been £4.4m guaranteed left to pay for Bielik.
When we entered admin, we had completed 2 seasons out of the 5 Bielik was contracted for. If the rumoured £8m fee evenly spread over 5 years would have meant a £4.8m balance remaining. Not too far off my finger in the air calculations.
The payment structure for Bielik could have been non-linear, but we also could have had add-ons such as a Lawrence promotion bonus. It's much more likely that the real figure we owed Arsenal at the time of administration was £4m or less.
