No chance we're paying the surplus on oliver's wages, for a few reasons.
QOTS will be relatively flush after decent tribunal fees for a few of their players and they're on the back of a good season with some big clubs in the league and another season with big clubs in their league.
Oliver won't have been on big money and there probably isn't a surplus.
They gave us a - nominal probably - fee. Unless there's some tax write off behind this i can't imagine it wouldn't have been easier to scratch the fee and use it as wages.
Supposedly Oliver is gutted about the whole thing, and didn't expect it at all. Â I do think it's a weird one, maybe a season long loan but didn't see him being sold.
