----- Original Message ----- Actually Rob, I remember seeing Johnson say 
exactly that in an interview on television some time back, so it is on record 
somewhere, and if it wasn't true I doubt Johnson would have got away with 
having it broadcast.

I also understand that this is documented and has been confirmed, even by 
Ridsdale. On the other hand, even if he had signed for 10K, how long would the 
team have continued to perform once he found out that he was being paid far 
less then everyone around him ? Overpaying ALL the players (in terms of what 
should have been budgeted) is what was going on. Trying to pay one player far 
less than the others is not necessarily a very good way to run the squad. It's 
a bit like the Goldfish story. It's a good story but how much water does the 
goldfish tank hold.
