Suprised none of you have picked up on the fact the fee is 2.5m

It's Wilson's comment that gives it away really.

The headline says its 2 million....slip of the tongue by DW?

Or the truth leefer. Remember it was the Adver who started the 2m

With you now!

I reckon a chuck of it will be dependent on West Brom getting promoted, or at least making the playoffs.

Maybe its £2m upfront and £0.5m in add ons?

Dunno what the add ons will be but if Fitton has has accepted it the terms must be acheiveable - I think we'll get the full amount of whatever is 'dependant on...' fairly soon - we've all seen him play and know how good he is and West Brom probably will go up so none too worried in this regard.

There must be a sell on clause as well so when he moves on we'll have maybe a good 4 mil out of the whole bargain if he goes for a good fee.  Pretty good business.

Great deal all round this is. Lets hope we can replace him or at least get in players who can pitch in with goals from other areas.
