well whatever we paid for him, it is another cost

As for loan wages;
While in the Champs Norwich spent EIGHT times as much as Hibs on staff costs.

Are they really going to be making a significant contribution to what we were paying Bushiri?

Chelsea & Citeh make money from loans because their kids go to cash-rich clubs (e.g. Palace, Bournemouth & ourselves) and are sold for millions.

We are loaning (and selling) players to the likes of Southend, Hibs & Livingston and Charlton & MK, which is another level altogether.

      - Did Andy O come in during Webber’s time ? (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Jun 9, 13:49:54
        
        Yes. As has Idah. Neither gone out of loan, both signed from Ireland. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jun 9, 14:28:24
        
        I believe that Idah was identified before Webber arrived (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Jun 9, 16:16:27
        
        confirmed; long, long before Webber (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Jun 9, 16:20:48
    - Even Marley Watkins signed on a free sold for a million … (NCFC) - loz, Jun 9, 12:02:46
      - Marley Watkins is a completely different case (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jun 9, 13:30:53
