CONFIRMED Ben Godfrey signs on season long loan

[Bartleby]

27 and out? Could mean he's retiring as he's aged 27? Pure speculation mind

Hope he's OK, that's a slightly odd post.

Is he predicting the England first innings total in the latest Test match?

Maybe he’s gay if ‘out’ means he’s coming out?

That was my thoughts

 

[AWetFlannel]

Whatever it is it must be horrible, imagine having to end your career at 27 and the career is top level football.

You seriously thinking that's the reason he's not been playing all season?!

Did he definitely have United on there ?

The worst loan signing pound for pound we've ever made. And that's some going because we've had Robin Olsen.

Not sure there's ever been a more obvious bad signing made by United. McGuinness runs it close but he'll at least be available to play

I’ll raise you a Simon Lappin.

Do we really need to know?
Life can be a bitch, no matter your money or profile.
I hope at 27 he can soon find himself in a good place managing his demons ( we all have them )

Whoever was responsible for pushing through this loan signing needs to be sacked, and I do not say that lightly - but what a colossal waste of time and money this lad has been.

Anyone with half a brain could see that he's a once-promising player whose ability - for whatever reason - has been in freefall since Covid, that's multiple years of being increasingly shite.

I don't know what's caused that, and frankly I shouldn't have to even think about it - as he should be some other club's problem if we hadn't had the most brain-dead summer window in living memory (amidst some pretty fierce competition recently!)

Oli Burke.

His heart's clearly not been in football for a long while, just happy for some mug to pay him.

(Get fucked to the lad)

I noticed he's also deleted any mention of us from his social media. These are literal adults with the minds of children

The more money we've had , the more expensive shit we've signed.
Club is like a gorilla being given a piece of priceless art to look after

What annoys me more is that comment applies equally to our owners and directors.

Whether - for this purpose - directors includes Bettis , is a moot point.

We have literally pressed the self-destruct button in the summer , in our last year of parachutes.

Only dem Blades could fuck themselves to this extent after a period of almost becoming an established yo-yo club.

In Godfrey's case - when the clubs income is about to shrivel up - we fail yet again on due diligence and pay eye watering wages to a duffer.

No I’m not.

Especially when we were in need of a right back & he clearly wasn’t a right back. Reminded me of the Holgate signing.

There wasn't loads, but couple of posts which have now been removed.

Not true at all about the sleeping pills
The addiction is true but something else

Do we really need to know?

It sounds like you did?

We’ve all left a shit job off our CV haven’t we

Ravel Morison & Jack Rodwell would run him close if they were capable of running.

Keep trying to tell people that Hoyland and the data/scouting team have blood on their hands over this summer. They seem to be escaping without any criticism and are getting away with a lot more than Paul Mitchell did.

They'd at least not completely crumbled mentally in matches 6 months previously

Hoyland and co should be gone already they've overseen some absolute disasters this year alone.

 

[Wards]

Sure Godfrey will throw some shade at United. Maybe they are due some without knowing all the ins and outs of the situation. However, they ultimately never take any responsibility for themselves do they? Useless twat has sat on his arse for months being paid quite handsomely.

Not sure why this has wound me up so much

James Bord?
