Aye we all start off as young lads in our working lives with dewy eyed ambition and realise after a while that money talks. Easy to do plenty of badge kissing and fist pumping towards fans when playing for Man U, Liverpool and the like when you are on mega money, not so easy when Preston offer maybe two grand a week more and the mortgage money is a bit hard to meet every month playing for Scunny and you fancy a new car too. Paul Hayes was one of my all time favourite players and I go back as far as Barrie Thomas, David Sloan etc, loved watching Haysey play for us, he deserved his moves and more money in a short career, don’t begrudge the lad a penny he was a great player for us, good luck to him and any player who improves their lot after leaving us.
