Not too many days ago we reported on how Steve Sidwell, having been released by Fulham, had agreed to sign for Stoke City.
Today it is being reported that Sidwell also had the opportunity to join Crystal Palace, a move that would have kept the 31 year-old midfielder in London.
However, it would appear that Sidwell, although offered £30,000 a week by the South London club, was swayed by the offer of £50,000 a week Mark Hughes placed on the table.
Now I could go on about being enticed by money but I suppose, given the chance, we`d have probably gone down exactly the same path wouldn`t we?
