He should have been playing for us this season. Wanting a move here is probably the only reason he handed in a transfer request. I'm disappointed we've missed out, even more so due to Clough and it's also made me dislike MK Dons even more, but it's not a disaster. He's a 29 year old bottom end Championship centre half who won't get much better and we shouldn't have paid 500k for him, even though I'm sure Burton won't have paid that much. There have been players who I've been far more disappointed to miss out on and there'll be plenty more in the future.

He is head and shoulders a better player than Wilson........................... by a country mile.

It's all about opinions. He's not going to improve at 29 years old and if he was any good we wouldn't have released him in 2007.
 
If we've lost out for the sake of £200k then that's daft.

If we are happy with O'Connell and Wright with Wilson and Basham as cover, then that's fine. IF we are happy that is.

Message to Wilder: Wallace (K) can play central defence as well as left back, left wing back and central midfield.

What, when we were a recent PL club and he was 20 years old?

Is Sharp no good to us now in League One because we sold him on two separate occasions years ago?
 
You can't really blame him for wanting to play at the highest level he can at this stage in his career.

Man Utd released Pique and I assume they would have never contemplated resigning him
 
Why the hell would you want to sign for Burton. Long term they will be back in the lower divisions. Footballers are so dumb, is no surprise they all need a agent.

Sharp is OK now we are in the 3rd division but we paid over the odds for him on both occasions
 

Kennedy was potentially better in my opinion but his injury record probably means he will never achieve that level.
 
It appears that because Kyle had handed in a transfer request and was virtually on strike, our board believed they could get him on the cheap. They gambled that eventually MK would have to relent and sell him for less than they wanted, or they would have to just leave him in the reserves.
As usual our board has got it wrong. They thought that because Kyle is a fan, his desire to come to the lane meant that he would only move to us. This is professional football and players are no more than mercenaries, who have no loyalty.

I suspect that the Blades board were loving the fact that Kyle was attempting to engineer a move to us, as they thought they MK would eventually have to come cap in hand to us and accept a low offer. The board should have offered a realistic fee for Kyle, but instead we have now missed out on the player. MK would have sold him to us, if we had offered a realistic fee. The Blades board never learns, they remain a total joke.

They are a joke based on your made up story yes.

However, the more likely story - based on the facts we actually know are that MK were playing silly beggars, overpricing him to a divisional rival.

A non divisional rival has come in and basically had an easy run at it with MK. Deal done.
