I heard 4 different people from city dealt with stoke, jenkins balls it up, borley failed,ridsdale, then dave jones.
Stoke got fed up.
Also i heard city withdrew their offer to him and joe will speak out soon, i know his brother well.

I think a tribunal may have gone higher than what Jenkins , Ridsdale and Co tried negotiating for ?

Well plenty of flights from
Glasgow to Cardiff daily with flybe so on 25k it shouldn't be hard.

If a player on a free transfer has no choice it's because his options are limited. Has he been forced into a move he doesn't want?
Thu Jul 08, 2010 7:06 am
ofcourse he has , Stoke pulled out and nobody else in the prem has come forward plus CCFC dont want him back , its obvious he's chosen Celtic as a last resort and maybe hoped that a last ditch offer from England may have come in .

Why wouldn't Cardiff not offer him a contract? would be far cheaper than buying a player. Where would we get another player of his quality? Or could it be his agent is a greedy fucka who has priced everybody out apart from moneybags Celtic?

Maybe we need the money and thought we were getting £3 Million, Who Knows, But Ledley and Gethin Jenkins do, lets wait and see, I think there is a twist in this.

Oh there will be a twist allright and a certain P. Ridsdale is sure to be in the middle of the twist

Stoke were offering players in part ex.
1-Maybe it collapsed because we are under a transfer embargo.
2-Perhaps DJ was keen on the players on offer
3 Stoke have problems of their own. Pulis has been told
To get players off the books before signing anymore.

from information i have heard from someone at the club.
joe doesnt particulaly want to sign for celtic as he doesnt want to move that far from home.
but STOKE offered a small amount of money + 2 players.
CARDIFF CITY are not willing to take up this offer due to the fact we cant take the players due to this embargo forced upon us at present!
jenkins, borley, riddler and dave jones all tried to work an agreement with stoke but failed.

The players on offer could have been on high wages as well.
Who would foot that bill?
Maybe if Stoke had offered enough to pay the tax bill. Pay the wages of a couple of loan players
a deal could have been struck.

NO PREMIER LEAGUE CLUB WERE WILLING TO PAY £3 MILLION CASH FOR JOE.
SAYS IT ALL.
