CONFIRMED Hamer joins Coventry

[LondonBlade89]

Jimmy Ramble has got me absolutely rattled with his “I’m not ITK but…” post. I’m absolutely on strings. What a moron.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

If our "system" can't accommodate Hamer, and it looks to be the case, then why the fuck did we appoint a manager who almost uniquely wouldn't be able to accommodate our best player? Yet more fantastic joined up thinking from these fools in charge

I'm not bothered if he does go. Or if anyone else goes. I think we're in decline regardless. It would make a lot of sense to bring money in while we can

We look to be going mad with the signings and giving it a fair go but it is very scattergun, I struggle to see any cohesive unit emerging from the very random mix of players we're assembling and if we do sell Hamer in addition to the others it's very hard not to think we're entering a chaotic downward spiral

 

[Wright1889]

He didn’t, but from what I understand he sells a ‘platinum service’ where people are given information before others. If he’s not giving credible information what is he charging for?!

You answered the question with the first two words. The rest was some random justification to be a bully.

 

[Cheeky Blade]

I asked this previously but will ask again now that things seem to heatibg up around Hamer.

Would we be happy selling Hamer for £15-£20m and bringing in a loan as his replacement?

 

[blAdes96]

It just doesn't make sense to loan him out regardless of a 2 mill fee and future "obligation"

If he has another Championship season this year, like he did last year, he'll still be worth 15-to-20 mill even with being another year older

We'd lose most of creativity and goals output, we'd be shooting ourselves in the foot massively...

 

[Melbourne Blade]

I keep arguing with my Cov mates (who say Hamer should be in the premier league) that he's not fit enough nor displays athletic attributes for a prem player. Premier league players don't drink pints & shots midweek, they're athletes, on another fitness level, plain and simple.

Will be sad to see him go but if we get near 20m for him then fair play and decent business.

Think it’s to balance next year’s books as we lose parachute payments this year.

In my opinion he must be replaced permanently with quality if he goes

 

[CaptainMorgans]

If he's off to Leeds I presume Solomon on loan is a sweetener?

 

[SotonBlade]

Go back to Coventry for Rudoni

 

[Frank the tank]

How you know?

He hasn't got a clue
Just jumped to worst conclusion

 

[blAdes96]

Go back to Coventry for Rudoni

Solomon in on loan and borrow against this "future obligation" money and take Rudoni.

Or, Solomon in on loan & Brownhill on a free - would have been smart, if only Brownhill wasn't going Saudi...

Otherwise losing Hamer makes no sense...

 

[Eppyblade]

Go back to Coventry for Rudoni

Unfortunately he would probably cost more than we sell Gus for. I have no idea who would replace him if I am honest

Except he'll only have 12 months left on his contract. If we could get £20m for him id be tempted but I dont think we will and nowadays you dont get much for £5 - £10m so who would we replace him with?

 

[Broomhall Blade]

How you know?

He doesn't.

Forgive the flawed analogy but when Rolf Harris was famed for painting and not being a nonce, he’d be painting away and you’d have no idea what it was.

“Can you guess what it is yet?”

The all of a sudden he’d turn it upside down and it would be a Yee tree

Anyway, feels like that. I’ve given up trying to track the squad and map the positions. Can’t quite decide if we’re playing 3D chess or throwing shit and the wall and seeing what sticks.

We’re so close now. Let’s just see how we look at the end of the window.

I'll help you out - it's the latter

 

[Eppyblade]

I think we would probably have to find a gem from abroad but if we are looking in England the only potential replacement I can think of would be Buendia but he doesn’t fit the profile

 

[Ron_Justice]

Hamer, Peck and Souza in one window is already atrocious. Were going down

That's the spirit

His contract will be a year shorter, so his value will represent that.

 

[KMC-1889]

Danny Hall saying he understands it’s not true v Wit saying he’s gone. Wilders camps are split here!!

Wit also said Tanganga rumours was just the board manufacturing a distraction.

If Wilder was as much of a blades fan as he claims to be you’d think he’d tell him to pack it in

 

[Tazzy]

2 million loan and 15 to 20 million next season to Leeds 95% done

He didn't manage it while he was at the club, no way he going to now.

 

[Pedro Verde]

Brownhill on a free - would have been smart, if only Brownhill wasn't going Saudi...

Have you seen the amount Brownhill is wanting with regard to signing on fee and wages its eye watering
There is only Saudi that can afford him

 

[SufcBilly]

Danny Hall v Jimmy Ramble in a who can be more wrong battle

Bloody hell, I've only just realised how stupid this was

... anyway, anyone got any views on Solomon's political leanings?

 

[Blade56]

Leeds can’t use Solomon as a sweeter he’s a Spurs player

 

[Carlton Blade]

Is Hamer our own version of Bruno Fernandes? Best player at the club, doesn't fit the system, gets picked every week and played out of position.

Even though you haven't mentioned personality, having such a joyous player as Gus in the same sentence as that little Weasel faced shitbag is nauseating

Apologies to Weasels everywhere
