CONFIRMED Hamer joins Coventry

[robbiez666]

Agreed - and also feel that by how Hal acts on here he really wants the rest of the fanbase to feel included/involved

I think he wants to provide the best content possible for fans.

I suspect Shambles' motivation is more self-serving. I hear he already posts videos about himself. This self-obsession is what I hate.

New WWE PPV - Royal Ramble?

 

[LondonRoad]

Jimmy Ramble and all his ilk are what they are. I find it strange that people ramble on for an age, about stuff they have no evidence about

Any way, just about to book a night out for me and the Mrs

 

[Ron_Justice]

Biggest difference between Ramble and SUW, Red Half, Tufty Club etc. is Ramble is trying to make it his living, while the others are doing it as a hobby/side gig. Obviously Jimmy is going to try and monetise and produce loads of content. That's how you make a living as a content creator.

It's a childish thing to say, but really, if you don't like it, just don't click.

Which would be fine, if he wasn't:

• monetising tragedy
• acting ITK and shouting about it all over twitter to push towards the Patreon
• had that whole thing where he labeled the forum a cesspit

Hard to give him any level of a pass after that

 

[Blade58]

It sounds like the Solomon deal is a loan with obligation IF promoted. Seems like sound planning to me, especially given the financial situation around our loss of Parachute payments.

This is where I disagree Ron

We don’t go up, Solomon goes back, we are a player short along with no parachute payments next season.

We bring decent money in selling Hamer we should buy a replacement not loan one in my view

I just see it as a race to the bottom.

 

[brownblade]

Just caught up on about ten pages of this, because the thread I initially looked at firmly and repeatedly implied Hamer was leaving.

I've seen no evidence Hamer is leaving in this Hamer thread.

As I understand it, the Hamer deal is a loan with Obligation. We get money, next year, when we need it.

I think the days of United buying players for £15 / 20 m are well gone (unless we get back to the PL) if you look at the history of players we have bought for that amount there is only Hamer thats been a relative success even Berge was borderline the likes of Brewster and McBurnie have totally fucked us in that regard

Just think if we had loaned Brewster instead of buying him it would have saved us north of £30M

If the deal with Solomon is from what we know is we have the option to buy if we go up. It is a good option and gives us some wriggle room if we dont with the loss of Parachute income

All of which are solved by you not clicking. All social media platforms have a mute function. If it bothers you that much, you can mute him.

Dislike him all you want, your moral compass is yours alone, but you don't HAVE to engage.

If it is fair enough Ron, but that doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Could be wrong but I think it will be a straight sale, if he goes that is

Right great and when he's involving himself in major discourse about united? Forcing himself front and centre like he did tonight about the Hamer stuff?

I've been online most of the day, I follow his YT, I've been all over Twitter and here. I've honestly not seen a single post from him today. I've genuinely no idea what you're alluding to.

Not sure where the story started, but l read earlier today that he's available for a loan with an obligation of £15-£20M. He's not agitating to go, but would entertain PL football.

FWIW, being available and actually going are two very different things.

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Hamer needs to be played in his most effective position with supporting cast alongside him, and just as importantly, he needs to be personally happy. Get thise two things in place, he can be an excellent Championship player. If one of those things isn't right, he looks a passenger.

I'm hoping it still come right for him at SUFC but he hasn't looked happy this season. Something seems to have changed with him, and maybe hes more receptive to a change of clubs now, especially with the club being in a state of flux with people going and all sorts of transfers incoming now finally happening.

I like Gus, I hope he stays, but if he does go, I'll just wish him well and hope we all move on quickly.

Encouraging to see the comments today about more signings being likely, to supplement Hamer. You could argue that for most of his time here, he hasn't had adequate quality around him.

Then, we amongst a better squad last season, he was played out of his preferred position and asked to do a far more demanding, athletic role than he is otherwise used to.

I'd love to see us use him properly and surround him with a lickle bit o' qualiteh.

Ramble certainly has the weight advantage but I wouldn't like to fight Hal. Hal looks like the type that just flip mental at any moment, pull a blade out and slice you up like a stick of Pepperami.

 

[Railway Blade]

If that is the case then I think Hal should nominate Nick as his champion.
He's a very good height for a man.

Was just gonna post the same. He offers an output. Don’t like the output just switch off. Yeah he gets it wrong some times,we’d have the lad from Bournemouth in our line up today. He is right some of the time. Things move fast in football so none of them get it

 

[lazyfecklessblade]

Guess we find out who’s telling porkies when the team news comes out. Roll on Monday night, and going back to forgetting that Alan Nixon exists.

 

[Rodley]

Don't want him to go, but can see why. As others have said, he's not the player for the current system. A system installed by the owners. A system designed by our manager. A system that requires complete adoption to succeed. A system that requires very specific skills. A system that removes our reliance on singular people. A system that needs athletes. A system that evidently doesn't fit Gustavo Hamer.

A system that hitherto loses every game.

We’ve sacked a manager for tactical inflexibility. We’re now approaching tactics with all the philosophical and practical flexibility of the Stasi.

 

[Pollingtonblade]

I see the GBOB mob are flexing there muscles.

This would be a fucking stupid move if we got rid.

Will we ever learn to say no?

 

[bertieblade]

We have to run a business as well as a football club and if we can sell him at the height of his value to replace with three players who will appreciate in value and overall make us a better team it is good football and business sense.
Or we could ask chansiri or someone of his ilk to take over

We've never signed players for £15/20m (unless we've been in the PL).

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Just said in ShoutyB, if he goes I'd be hugely disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I expect him to go, but In Hamer and O'Hare we have the two Champ players I wanted us to sign. I was beyond delighted. And then we've never utilised them properly. Hamer was initially in the shittest of PL teams and part of an overrun midfield.

Then we had him with his best buddy O'Hare, which ought to have been a masterstroke but we played him out of position and limited their ability to link up in the manner that they were used to. We had some relatively good finances too; why didn't we build a system around them with good players, to make them the stars of the side? It wasn't hard, we just had to copy Cov's homework.

The talk yesterday of further signings to supplement Hamer is our main reason for hope, but it may be too late, in terms of FINALLY building a side around him (and O'Hare). If that's the case, only United could fumble that.

When you say replace, if that means sign then fair enough.

Good business was selling Berge and Ndiaye with1yr left on their contracts and replacing them with Souza and Ndiaye.

Hopefully it will be good business selling Anel and replacing him with Tanganga. Going to be more difficult to replace Hamer with a like for like.
