CONFIRMED Andre Brooks sold to Norwich

[mattbianco1]

Say's he's left for "ambitions"... He's fell out with Wilder hasn't he?

I always get a bad feeling when it says ‘undisclosed’ … I would say £6 - £8 million should do it ? Possibly a bit higher ?

it's £4.5

 

[JohnDenver]

But, but... Norwich though? Wtf?

The fact we didn’t wait for an auction late in the window is interesting. Suggests Norwich made a genuinely big bid, or we’re desperate to offload an academy product for the financials.

Whether we can use much of the money to do something with is all that matters now.

 

[Blade58]

I hope we have another winger lined up because the alternatives at the club I don’t think have the answer?

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

I really can't believe how many people are hurt by this.

Decent fee for an inconsistent winger.

As always the reactions should be reserved for end of the window.

Add one and seriki to that list too. One has already moved out of his United digs and said he won’t play for wilder

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

Well, this is terrible.

 

[FredZeppelin]

Do you seriously think that Wilder sold him , the money men sign off these deals. CW it's probably as pissed off as the rest of us.

You've got to be kidding, surely?

The 'money men' at this club are scared shitless of Wilder and any risk of upsetting him. I'd of thought that nothing happens without his say so, transfer wise or coaching set up wise.

We'll see in the next few weeks though.

Hall famously never wrong

Where did I say he wasn’t? Just providing info

We'll act on that in late August

Shut it down everyone

 

[Æthelstan]

I only hope we have some big signings lined up after this.

Oh what am I saying, of course we don't. Half expect us to sign 4 ageing players on loan who'll spend half the season treating their hemorrhoids instead of playing.

 

[dexter101]

You were saying?

I will wake up in a minute and this will all just be a dream...

very disappointing

 

[Blade58]

Deadline day ……. “We tried”

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

What the actual fuck?! Have we lost our heads?!

 

[bartman]

Does make you wonder what the relationship between Wilder and Brookes was like. He would openly criticised rookes(and Seriki) when others had been far worse during g a game.

Or may be just a case of we need the money due to the failure to be promoted at Wembley and last season

 

[true99blade]

We’ve sold him to fucking Norwich? This club is on its way down quicker than I expected. Fuck absolutely everyone involved in this.

 

[mattbianco1]

Wilder often called Seriki and Brooks out for criticism publicly last season which a lot of the time wasn't warranted.

 

[Arcadia Blade]

Great start to the season. NOT!!

 

[HOT CURRIE 10]

A complete joke of a club,the only player who got you off your seat last season,it was written in the stars from the treatment Wilder gave to him and Seriki last season. Every season this happens. Our scouts will probably unearth another Louie Barry. Fookin idiots.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

6 goals 3 assists.

3 goals 2 assists season before.

Yep. If we can get someone with more of an output than that it's not a bad move for us fee depending.

That's the difficult bit

 

[jimmymuir]

£8m initial fee it's been reported. Sad to see him go, but it's a decent fee for an exciting (yet inconsistent) winger. If he has fallen out with Wilder and wants to leave us for f*cking Norwich, then we have to take the money and reinvest it. Hopefully it means we can retain Peck for another year, although knowing us, we'll sell him on deadline day!

 

[elgoog44]

Struggling to understand this, I know we needed to raise funds for any new signings but this is very odd, a blade player of the year and an improving player year on year.

hopefully we can start getting bodies in now and push on, but very disappointing to lose Brooks and to a rival as well. gutted

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Jack Clarke incoming ?

 

[Whitby-Blade]

Absolutely gutted at this one, amazing how they always seem to offload the ones you think we must try and build around. Could this be moving to a back 3/5 and dropping the wingers? We’ve currently got Chong to work with

 

[Nedski]

Cooper (half fit)
Shackleton Tanganga McGuiness Burrows
Chong Peck Arblaster O'hare
Cannon Bamford

Christ. The smallest weakest team in the league.

What is the fee? That word significant doesn't mean what SUFC (or, for that matter, most of the forum) thinks it means. Offloading the attacking player with the most potential for fuck all IN A LATERAL MOVE basically says we are mailing the season in. What we might do in other personnel decisions is irrelevant. At least unlike when we sold Ndiaye we didn't wait until the eve of the season to surrender, and at least unlike we sold Ndiaye I haven't renewed my season ticket so I'm not paying for meaningless games

 

[Eza Blade]

Brooks was gradually turning into the footballer we needed. It’s a shame but I am sure we will replace him with Jack Harrison maybe, unless he’s not 30 yet.

Femi will be gone, not a big loss feel it could be Shackletons break out season.

 

[Old Programme seller]

This is mainly because of our or should I say the boards failure last season when they were taken for a ride by the poker/ai guy and this is the price we have to pay, we said the poor actions of our board would set us back up to 5 years and this is coming true, I’m hoping for consolidation in this division this season when the big wages players are gone at the end of next season Hamer, Bamford etc then I’m thinking we’ll end up with rejects from the championship signing it really will be that bad as the signs are already here!

 

[Silent Blade]

Biggest disappointment for me on the sale of a good player since we sold Ndiaye.
