bristolcitysweden Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 We are supposed to pay all of Engvalls sallary during the loan period while they pay a minor fee. Well they can pay for themselves. The club is bankrolled by Stefan Persson the main owner of H&M. A man with a fortune that makes Steve Lansdown look like a bag man. So why are we feeding them? Why don't we charge them 75 per cent of Engvalls sallary and send quite a few of our youth teams out to international tournaments this summer. Just a thought.

Robin1988 Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Can't imagine he's on a huge wedge, better to have him playing for nothing than sitting in the reserves. Still not ideal but hey ho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 We've been paying Steve Cotterill about £5k a week to do nothing for the past year, i'm sure we can manage to pay Engvall probably 2/3rds of that - better to pay him to play in Sweden than pay him to sit at home in Bristol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps this is the only way we could get Gustav Engvall the playing time he wants so, to do the right thing by the player, the club have copped the bill? I appreciate that doesn't tally in with the whole 'Bristol City have treated Gustav Engvall appallingly' line fans keep trotting out, though.

bristolcitysweden Posted March 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 I will be surprised if a loan deal is not agreed on Friday (31st of March) at the latest. Talks are ongoing. But we should have a fair compensation not looking total nuts as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refusing the loan of a young player with international ambitions because we demand a fee/large percentage of their wage to met isn't going to encourage other young players to the club.

REDOXO Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 I wouldn't worry, Steve is paying for the mistakes, he has made that extremely clear. Hopefully Engval will have his splinter removed one day. However if not I simply don't care anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
