750k. Absolutely fuck all in todays market. Wow. It is pretty pathetic. It's questionnable whether it's even worth selling. I thought that £3m was the entry-point price for a proven PL player like Bardsley. Some League One players will move for more than £750k.

Bardsley spoke to a family member at the end of season awards.
He said he had signed a 1 year extension but thinks he'll be going (now gone). The foreign lads are too quiet and don't mix. Bruno probably won't sign. Bony going back. Hughes staying. Tom Edwards good prospect. Ramadan lot to learn but good prospect.

Choice of two rightbacks to sell we choose to sell the wrong one its not hard to understand - is it ? (with all due respect) Maybe we tried, and nobody wanted Johnson. Unless you know different?

Whelan, Walters and Bardsley are seasoned pros, who will be a big miss in the dressing room. Very good business by Burnley. I would rather have found decent replacements for them, before letting them go for a combined fee of not a great deal. Its scary that we're a couple of weeks away from the start of the season with a combination of Glen Johnson/Geoff Cameron/Mame Diouf at right back.

I can't stick a season of that carthorse Johnson playing week after week, dithering on the ball getting himself closed down and caught in possession, sold the wrong one in my opinion. RS You can only sell what someone is willing to buy. Do you know who wants to buy Johnson?

There must be a RB on the way then. No chance of us going into the season with just Johnson.

Bardsley for me falls in the same category as muniesa. Really likeable pro. Will give everything for the team but just can't put 3 games together without injuries. One thing bardo did is put 110% in every time he played so for that I thank the lad and wish him good luck.

Thanks Phil,
Unfortunately not fit enough nowadays to put a run of games together.

I'd prefer a more quiet thoughtful dressing room than the likes of bardsley if I were a player.

Lets be honest, every fucker on here was cacking their pants when they thought Johnson was going to a certain "big two" Spanish club as cover. How fucking fickle that a few months down the line, we sell our other right back you're moaning! Cant fucking win with fans at this club!

believe it or not - clubs were sniffing around Johnson this summer
West ham enquired apparently (then again, they enquire about everybody)
me, Id have let him go
fee £50 - and, paid his taxi fare
fact is : - we've just sold an honest hard working fullback - leaving a bloke in the team whose fucking legs have gone and seemingly, incapable of defending ------- his own fucking dinner !
Tom Edwards it is then

There was one club interested in Glen Johnson. They gave him a new contract three months ago.
I think its fair to say this club is the only one on earth interested in Glen Johnson!

I wasn't cacking, I was pissing, my pants, at the very thought of Barca looking at Johnson. Maybe as a steward, ballboy, or a doorstop, a footballer?? No chance.

As has been pointed out by a number of posters above - you can only make a sale if there is a willing buyer, its the real world and that's why we still have Johnson on the books. I just can not believe that he will be our first choice for RB come the end of the transfer window. If as many expect, including myself, that we will be going with three at the back then the decision to offload PB makes a lot of sense - so long as we replace him with a pacey wing-back. Have a bit of faith. eh?

Phil Bardsley is/was the best full-back we have at the club.
Read that sentence again. Let it sink in. Let it sink in and then allow yourself to weep.

Has anyone commented on the quite superb decision to extend his contract a few short weeks ago. The stupid Burnley fuckers could have had him for nothing a month ago. Another fantastic piece of business by stoke City

Scandalous decision for me to sell Bardsley over Johnson but sort of sums up the crazy decisions at the club of late Well you shouldn't have sold him then!

Maybe we had to free up space in the squad before we could go out and buy! Interesting time?! Still 2 weeks 4 days to game 1

750k. Absolutely fuck all in todays market. Wow. Erm that's £750,000 more than we would have got until his new contract (that a lot moaned at) and not bad for a player that makes Darren anderton look healthy in his career We've got deals rising to £6.5M for players I'd have been glad to see go for nothing. I'm impressed.

As someone else has already said. Would sooner Johnson had gone. Do not trust him! This predictive text malarkey is doing my head in, by the way. I wouldn't mind if they got it right!
