    With hindsight, was he really overrated or has he failed to reach the potential he had as a young 'un?

    How can you say that when you most likely have no idea what Flinders has said?

    It's been established many times on this forum in the past Tomi.

    You're either a racist, or a Politically Correct ****** (I believe that is the term which was recently used).

    You don't wait for things such as fact, you declare yourself to one side, and wait for the abuse from the other.

    I'm firmly in the ****** party.

    I thought the deal in total was worth a million with clauses and add ons. The actual fee we received was around £200k if I remember right.

    Is racial abuse acceptable?

    According to Wikipedia, £250k rising to £1m based on appearances, etc. So £250k then. Also apparently part of the Sam Togwell deal....
