bb, get a grip, not a chance. Why would he stay in L1, leave for a club they beat in PO Semis and turn down double the wages in Championship?

He would certainly be miniature enough to fit well in our master plan of an " under 5 foot tall" midfield !!! I understand that Basham is having an operation soon to have his legs cut off at the knees

That's the interview(and the players) I'm referring to. Someone above said that our midfield is still too small, I just meant that Adkins has acknowledged it already and obviously likes playing 6 big lads at least.

Nathan Byrne would slot right into that right wing position ahead of scougs in the starting 11 today. However, we never seem to cherry pick the best of league one so probably not gonna happen

I took him to mean 6 or 7 outfielders. Keepers are usually 6 foot plus.

Woolford is no dwarf either.

Tit. I saw the 'incoming' and got excited. I'd much prefer you to use the 'suggestion' tag then I can ignore the thread

As Facebook has 1.44 billion monthly active users, can you be a little more specific with your source?

I'd be surprised if we haven't enquired in some form or other..along with a host of other clubs...

 

[Bladesman]

We will offer him the best damn parking space we have. He won't be able to refuse.

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

Just give him a segway as part of the contract. He won't be able to resist.

So exciting to be linked with an average league one shitkicker

Wonder why we are stuck here year in year out

I wonder how the Swindon supporters will feel now that Byrne has been sold? Will it be their equivalent of the Blades selling Murphy?

Only if it's a good deal, likely to make their team stronger in the long run...

According to Blade58's newsclip above, Swindon are left with £500K, so although a welcome sum, not exactly designed to shore up holes and strengthen meaningfully. We know how gutting it can feel to lose a highly regarded player pinchers, so I'll be curious to know how Swindon's supporters feel at the announcement of Byrne's move?

Apologies for any confusion. The sell on clause wasn't mentioned in the article. From this tweet:

Wolves get Byrne for 1m but Swindon receive just 500k cos of a crazy 50% sell on clause to Spurs!

They've had loads leave over the past couple of months. That play off final has truly cost them

It really wasn't a crazy add on as he went there originally on loan and they got him for FREE!

Cheers 58, as you say, a crazy percentage and one that Swindon will regret with immediate effect. I can only assume that once an offer had been lodged, their bank manager will have been informed and nodded his head in approval. Good news for us and a few other clubs though, as it diminishes their threat. Interested to know what they might have in store to replace Byrne?
