    Frightening to think that our best paid player is probably the least talented player in the squad.

    It's good to see Adam commenting on all these things.

    The way it's written "loan contribution" sounds like we got a loan fee for him.

    Ipswich suggest they're paying £10k pw and the HDM suggested it was £18k pw.

    Between now and the end of the season (assuming end of May) is around 4 months or 17 weeks.

    £8k pw for 17 weeks is £136k so perhaps we got a loan fee of £100k?

    If he gets injured does he come back?

    Can Ipswich claim they're paying £10k a week and we can take £100k and receive a crocked Bullard back next week?

    theyre liable for his wage for the rest of the season, he can return if injured but would go back to them if he recovered

    sounds like the penny has dropped indeed the fans dont sound happy about this signing at all to quote one:

    "itfc711 added 14:27 - Jan 27

    Is there something we don't know hear as they seem far more happy with two united youngsters and another new player than someone not good enough to get in their first team?

    Clever buying by them.

    "Walk_the_Wark added 14:51 - Jan 27

    Bullard will barely play due to fitness, and is by all accounts an a***hole and difficult to manage. Very expensive red herring- mark my words. Austin on the other hand- if we pull this off, transfer coup of the last 5 years...if not 10!

    Is that sort of thing not covered by insurance? Surely the players are insured against that sort of thing, especially ones as injury prone as JB?

    We couldn't get any insurance on Bullard, due to his previous injury and the fact that he was carrying an injury when we signed him.

    I wouldn't actually like to think of the figure then, it must be astronomical when you consider how much decent game time he's actually had for us, not to mention his wages and the fee!

    He may come back a better player. Stronger,fitter,keener and leaner.

    If my team were in a relegation battle I would consider 20k a week for 20 weeks = 400k worst scenario, a chance worth taking, for a player of Bullards ability.
