I tend to agree with Manc, this is a player who had performed well on a very big stage so must be worth a few bob.
The whole Foster issue for me exposes the stupidity of sections of our support some of whom would gladly give him away thinking that we will get somebody better on the same wages. In reality I cant think of one player in recent times who we have brought in who has even been of an equal standerd to the person he is replacing with the exception of Hartley, who is no spring chicken.
