http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winston_Bogarde - this is quite a read LOL

Apparently he used to live in Holland and commute by plane 3 times a week for training to fulfill contractual obligations! Having said that can anyone blame him? He is now a multi millionaire who doesnt need to work again. I know his professional pride has gone but money in the bank trumps that

The cost of converting the Olympic stadium so West Ham can play there has been announced at £200m. What on earth are they doing for that money!? Apart from having to turn the seats round so they dont face the pitch.ahem

Vuoso joining us in 2002 for £3.5 million, and no one ever saw him....

[QUOTE="nottsblue"]News that Roberto di Matteo is still collecting £130k a week in wages from Chelsea after his sacking got me thinking.
What other bonkers stories about players or clubs are there. I know we will have loads but does anyone know of ones that went under the radar or were glossed

Red Rom did the same with AVB. Instead of paying them off, continue to pay their monthly salary and if they get another job you stop saying them.
We should have done it with Bob.
