CONFIRMED Brayford?

[Kenilworth]

His double works on the door at that pub opposite The Frog and Parrot.

A double for Borbokis's Dad, Grenwich or Brayford?

What does he have to say about all of this then?

 

[madeinsheffield]

Could be made up shite but just seen on Facebook donny have offered £2m, can't see it personally

 

[Paulus]

They just don't tell them like they used to. Comedy gold.

 

[borbokis]

maybe john Ryan has won the euromillions

That's most of that One Direction lads money gone then.

 

[Kev Gee]

So has he signed then?

Yes

Anybody know if the Beard managed any game time yesterday for Cardiff in their friendly? Is it true he's not been allocated a squad number?

Played 2nd half, doesn't have a squad number on their site but it may not be up-to-date.

In funnier news, Blackpool are supposed to be looking at him Given that Oyston doesn't want to spend any money on transfer fees this Summer and McGahey was seemingly too expensive..........

 

[madeinsheffield]

cheers boys, I'd checked Cardiff site, hoping it's a sign. I'm now wondering if the squad numbers need registering with FL before a certain date, proper clutching at straws.

I just think he unites the team and fans and would be as good for moral as the contribution to the team.

Just had a quick scan of their forums and most fans (not that that counts in the end) want to see him given a go. Seems they have two or three options for RB so Ole would me mad not having a look at him over pre-season before making a decision. I'd be amazed if anything happens this month and even after that, unless Ole doesn't fancy him at all, we might be looking at a loan deal at best.

I still think other Chumpionship clubs will be in for him if he becomes available, just depends whether the Nige / fans connection is strong enough here for him to take a gamble on us going up this season. If he could guarantee being in the Chump next season with us, I think he'd probably go for it.

It realy annoys me that you end up reading conversations backwards on Twitter, they should flip the whole thing upsidedown

 

[mattbianco1]

i think if Cardiff are prepared to let him leave then it will be to us. He seems to have genuinely put us close to his heart. Come on Cardiff, do the right thing - season long loan with agreed fee in 12months

You press this button...

Just to add to this,if we were lucky enough to have the beard with us next season,we would nearly get the money back in extra season ticket sales imo,come on blades don't give them time to think about playing him,get in there and make an offer,as someone has allready said,they allready have 3 RB's so they don't need the beard anyway,plus he's shite

I woudn't read anything into that link ATM as it is hopelessly out of date.

 

[madeinsheffield]

Hearing Brayford has handed a transfer request in, they value him at £750k. People saying that rules us out, I think it's a good price.

Come on Prince, dig deep!

I have to think that if we did sign Brayford it would surely put a a few peoples doubts to rest. Could increase season tickets, if only slightly. Add Coady and a quality striker and the roof would come off.

 

[lawlessdan]

Transfer fee may well be within our reach but the lad is in 30k a week at Cardiff, I'd be amazed if he was to give that up

Where has that come from? I think we'd pay that for a player of his calibre.

 

[madeinsheffield]

Off a few different Facebook sites, we are in the rumours section after all, was hoping by mentioning it on here somebody with a bit more knowledge might be able to share something

 

[metalblade]

In today's market I'd be amazed if Brayford could command that sort of wage anywhere, he is after all a 3rd choice at Cardiff. Maybe yes in the Premiership but he is not a Premiership player he certainly would not get that at any other Championship club. Soon Cardiff will have to cut their wage bill, Brayford needs 1st team football the question is how much he wants it and how much he is willing to take as wages. You just never know.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

I dont think the wages will be a stumbling block. Surely if we have maintained our interest like we have Clough and Brayford would be aware of what we can offer and what he'd want. If these were poles apart I doubt we'd have kid ourselves and stayed in the hunt like this.

 

[Kev Gee]

Im sure Brayford will already know what we are prepared to offer. Im sure that we maybe not be able to match his weekly wages but we could add a nice promotion bonus & wage increasxe into his contract.

Im now very confident we are going to land our man!

 

[S5Blade]

He won't be on 30k a week, they will have had relegation wage clauses in most of their players I imagine. If he has handed a transfer request in, then surely that means we will sign him.

 

[Reedy1889]

To sign him i think Maguire has to go what with the financial rules and all that... £2/3mil+ for Maguire surely covers the transfer fee and wages for Brayford.

I'd take that

 

[Blade58]

If it is correct that he wants to return to play for Clough, then that's three quarters of the battle

It gives fans reason to be optimistic that should he become available, he'll head our way

The Beard and a decent striker would cap off very nicely what's been up to now a productive close season
