If you are judging Value for Money, presumably you have to divide a Club's Revenue by the Players Salary, as a players investment will contribute to both on and off-field earnings.
Assuming Ellis is our top earner, I'd assume his value (HFC Rev/Salary) is still favourable compared with many other players in the league. For example, I'd rate Dobson as very valuable to Rovers, but I'd be surprised if his actual return is very much higher than Ellis.

| I think Ellis gives us a confidence in defense when he's on th pitch. For all our poor offensive work on saturday, our defense was superb!! If we can take that with us into next season, we have a real shot at top 4.

| Quote: Rock God X "Saw him interviewed on Sky one week and it was patently obvious that he would be a great person to have around the club for the younger players to look up to. Exudes the calm, unaffected confidence that sets the truly great professionals aside from the rest. Kearney-esque.'"
Is that the calm stephen kearney who got sent off in the play off when you lost 71-0 ?

A Hessle Roader that doesn't like meatpaste ?! You be saying you're not fond of patties next.

Spot on. Anyone disappointed by anything other than the fact he's missed a few games with injury (which can happen to anyone) is so because of their own over-expectation.

| Quote: His Bobness "In his career Ellis has often led by example but for me he isn't a natural leader of men, has he ever captained a team before?'"
I think that's a valid point to discuss. He's a great role model and judging by what players have said he clearly inspires his teammates with his actions, but I do wonder how he is as a 'talker'. He comes across fairly well in interviews, but that's not always an accurate indicator of how well it comes across on the pitch. Wasn't he captain before leaving Wakey, too?
As for what he's offered as a player, IMO when he's been fully fit and sharp he's been very good, at times excellent. Immense in defence, but will never shine in an attack that misfires as often as ours does. The only reason Manu could at times was because of his freakish strength forcing things to happen, but really the fact that he could do that was probably more papering over the cracks in our attack rather than being the solution to our problems.
