Can't say I've ever known any team, nor do I ever expect to, put it out on a press release that they let a player go because they thought they were paying him too much. Much of football and pro sport in general is smoke and mirrors when it comes to wages, fees and anything else financial. Length of contracts seem to be the only thing that ever really comes out in the open.

If Town, Dixon and his agents were in agreement with the family issues thing (wasn't that said to be the reason Hogg joined us from Watford?) then really I couldn't care less. He's left the club, the club's happy, he's got a job back up in Dundee where he's playing more often, so he's probably happy even if on less money. Not really his fault that the club signed another left back on loan that meant he was sat on the bench at whatever daft wages Deano and his men agreed to in the first place and there are some things Deano just shouldn't really be openly discussing with supporters.
