BCFCGav Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 Did some great work for us - but the financials mean this is the right call. All the best Bents and thank you for your service (especially that Forest game!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont hold any ill feeling towards bentley, i think it was forest away where he was like superman, but he has been a let down overall in my view, certainly for what he cost and what he got paid. Last 6 month's of deal, post Covid inevitable tbh. All the best to him at Wolves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont hold any ill feeling towards bentley, i think it was forest away where he was like superman, but he has been a let down overall in my view, certainly for what he cost and what he got paid. This one I don’t hold against him. Overall he’s been a good signing for the alleged fee of £2m, and I’d put this more down to the covid effect / our financial plight…which I get you could blame on them. There becomes a point when you sign 26 year olds on a 4 year deal where you have to question what the next contract looks like as he’s gonna be 29 three years in and 30 at the end. Either you see it being long term, ie an extension to spread that fee over a longer period, or move on for a fee at the right point. We’ve achieved neither is the reality. But without the financial situation I think he’d have been extended. Max’s form has made this easier to swallow. For Bents this is a fantastic move. Good luck to him. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossi the Robin Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 He kept us in many games and stopped a few hidings. Not having a confident defence in front of him wouldn’t helped his confidence, and maybe it was a little bit vice versa at times Lovely send of from him, and will be clapped by myself when he returns to AG 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS3City Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 I wish DB nothing but good fortune in the future and will always remember his time with us fondly. Can I just point out that any good wishes only go directly to him, and specifically do NOT extend to the club he has signed for. Hate those tossers... 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Financially, the value is his wages, although we need some kind of cover. Let’s see what comes out, but would imagine we pushed for something closer to £200k or so, his value in our books. Every reason to wish him luck, and a great contract for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handsofclay Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 I would like to wish Bents all the best. A great player and class act. He wasn't given the club captaincy as a keeper for nothing. My only concern is that we could well play Wolves next season in the league or in the cup and it will no doubt be when we are finally awarded that long awaited penalty....and Bents will bloody save it! 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
