What players will Chris come back for?

[CaptainMorgans]

Basham & Sharp are the only 2 I'd miss & they're at the end of their careers.

 

[jt64]

i will be very suprised hal if none of our players ended up at boro basham and mcgoldrick look the most likely that chris would want possibly baldock as well although the one i would really like him to take off our hands is mcburnie never ever rated the guy he only had that good run at swansea because chances were being put on a plate for him playing in a very offensive and good footballing side if we could get 5m for him i would take it and get him off the wage bill

Think we've found McCabe's account here. Half the division would be in for McBurnie at that price. Selling players at way under their value is part of the reason why we've been shit for most of the last quarter of a century.

 

[Chingo]

Hope he comes back for Baldock swap for Spence on loan at Forest

Think spence will be moving up a division in one of the next two windows !

not at boro though lol

 

[ZLB]

Unlikely ! Has other pressing tasks.

Like walking on water. Like our Chris.

 

[pommpey]

I'd be very surprised if the board would allow any players to sign for Middlesboro' unless we want them to get off the wage bill and out of the club.

That kinda answers the question though Hal. I'd want most of them off the wage bill and out of the club. They're fucking useless. And that's swearing.

Allowing their lengthy contracts to expire and enduring their shitness whilst HRH issues explicit orders (we assume) to ship out cheaper talent like Jebbison and play the expensive failures in a desperate attempt to attract bids or get value for money is the route to disaster. We need a team refresh, and it has to start in the JTW even if it is two players in to reinforce that ridiculously incapable midfield.

The one thing that is for sure is that there won't be too many to concerned and looking back when the poundloand gets himself to the point of no return and has to sell the club for what he can before it makes him personally bankrupt (the pound will drop with him at the end of next season).

What’s the weather like in Scarborough Kev?

Err?

 

[Lane Ender]

Think he will come in for Freeman , McBurnie, Moose , try to get Henderson on loan to aid his recovery and try a cheeky bid for Robinson at WBA

Moose will end up back in France

how much do you think we will get for mcburnie then ? 5m might even be more than we get offered for him i see your point about selling players on the cheap but mcburnie is garbage lets just get him off the payroll hes stealing 20k a week

 

[jt64]

If 5m was all we got offered for him, then we tell anyone who made said offers to fuck off, it's really quite simple.

 

[Ernest]

Fleck, Stevens ,Baldock, Bash? Take them all for me. Time to start afresh.

Who gives a flying fuck?

 

[Houston_Blade]

The sooner people realise we’re not SUFC we’re Chris Basham FC, the better.

 

[davidblade]

Who i hope he takes:

Burke
Baldock
Norwood
Stevens
Brewster
Mcburnie
Robinson
Freeman

Who he will probably take:
——————

He could do us a favour and drive them up there as he still lives in sheffield as well

You’ve started another thread about Chris Wilder and his transfer intentions in General Blades Chat. Who gives a fuck about Middlesborough’s ‘targets’? I know I don’t.

 

[derfblade.3]

Sorry but i don't spend hours on here like "some" silly cunts and don't read every thread.

It’s not hard to see the number of threads about a previous manager, his new club and supposed transfer targets.

Referring to someone as a ‘silly cunt’ whilst repeating what has been said several times already is quite ironic.

In a dingy, if he doesn't shack hissen.

See the French coastguard fucking move then, eh? EH?

/mildly xenophobic

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

“ he only had that good run at swansea because chances were being put on a plate for him playing in a very offensive and good footballing side”

Err?

Aye,
Reminds me of my favourite ever piece of terrace wisdom
“Edwards, you idle bastard, all tha’ ever does is score”

 

[ancientblade]

so we keep a player out of form who the manager obviously doesnt rate and who cant get in our first eleven and just carry on pissing 20k a week on him ? i would agree with your point on not selling players on the cheap weve done it all the 60 years ive been following united but for me hes done nothing to warrant us getting anything over 5m for him and i dont think we will

 

[jt64]

If we assume that the ~18m price tag for McBurnie was accurate, then we have maybe 7-8m left to attribute against the accounts on him given he signed a four year deal. That would be straight value of the asset. I would guess that if we sold in the JTW we would get that at a very minimum, as there are clubs that recognise that a player does not go to shit overnight and that someone with a track record of having scored 20+ in the Championship has the possibility of regaining that level of play. You however would be perfectly happy at getting rid at below five million, in order to save 20k a week in wages, which equates to less than 2 million over the remainder of the contract. So basically setting shitloads of cash on fire. Hi Kevin.

 

[Eggy]

What players will Chris come back for?

If he's got any sense...... none.

 

[mattbianco1]

Depends if he's watched them play or not

Yay
Congratulations on re-invigorating the Jebbo was / is the panacea mindset

 

[Weston blade]

None of them. They stopped playing for him along time ago. End of another Middlesbrough thread can we please just talk about the mighty blades now im bored of the fucking past.

 

[Kev Gee]

CW will know the contract situation with every SUFC player. So I would be surprised if he doesn't sign one or two of our players.

Basham - Free
DMG - Free

And maybe a player on a nominal fee such as Fleck or Norwood.

 

[pommpey]

Well, young as he is, he seems more capable than the expensively acquired but reputationally dogshit array of strikers we have as options these days.

My theory is that HRH has told the staff to ship Jebbison out on loan to halt the calls we should be playing a rookie instead of that lot and that Slav is to wring every last mis-spent dollar out of them.

Good luck with that. Two goals from old half-a-game and one from Poor Kid doth not ameliorate the itch that screams to be scratched.

Fleck, Stevens ,Baldock, Bash? Take them all for me. Time to start afresh.

Mousset , McKnob , Burkey Boy , Billy , Didsy , Norwood , Jack Robinson , Osborne , feck me , he can have em all apart from Egan (who we might be able to salvage if we play a big brute like Lopata at his side) , Bogle (if we play him in MF) , Jebbison (who we need to recall) & Billy (coz if he leaves , he's bound to get hat-tricks against us.
