Message to Oli McBurnie

[bakeblade]

Looks like you are going to be leading the line in the next 2 crucial games. You owe it to the club, your teammates and the fans to come up with 2 big performances.
So prove us all wrong and DELIVER.

 

[Bladesman]

If he scores a few goals I will buy him a new hat.

Awwww. What a lovely message from Oli's mum.

How is it now on McBurnie, because of dogshite team performances whilst he's been on the bench? Ffs

 

[Toronto Blade]

Heckingbottom said McBurnie trained with the team yesterday . That doesn't mean he will be fit enough to start. At least the two 18 year olds are fit. Letting two strikers go on loan in January has not worked well.

£20m he cost us. And he's been taking at least £20k a week in wages thereafter.
He's delivered nothing in 2 seasons. The fact he can't make it into a "dogshite team" should tell you all you need to know about his level.

On his own? Sounds a bit like the Hollywood producer who said working for MGM was like fucking a porcupine, it’s one prick against a thousand…

 

[DronnieBlade]

19 goals in 7 games ?

Have it .

UTB

What was wrong with him on Saturday?

 

[bakeblade]

What was wrong with him on Saturday?

Hurt his thigh when he misshit a shot in training. Good news he's ready for tomorrow, unless he gets injured warming up.

£13.5 Million ***

And he was joint top goal scorer in the only season he didn’t miss the majority through injury

Also our best season in a generation

6 goals in 36 games….. prolific

No thanks my preference is a go with Osula... Looks altogether better than Oli in pretty much every aspect of the game.

 

[Cheesebored]

In all seriousness are people still hoping he'll come good? It's amazing the same people over and over backing this fraud based on fuck all. There's no shame in admitting you were wrong. Forget the price tag and the wages they're not his fault. His complete lack of application makes my blood boil.

 

[Carlton Blade]

Cost about £8k probably

 

[Trafford]

Are they not both injured though, so actually a good call / fortuitous?

It's like candyman , just mention McBurnie 3 times

 

[stringjunior]

If mcburnie scores I'm on the pitch

 

[Harry's Game]

McBurnie will have to start he is the only grown up (at least in a physical if not mental sense) striker who‘s fit.

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

Stop worrying everybody, we don’t have to worry about whether McBurnie‘s up to it.

I’ll take my boots.

 

[Varkanoid]

If he scores a few goals I will buy him a new hat.

If he scores one goal I will buy him some new socks as his keep falling down.

Yes but he scored 40 goals for Swansea ?!!

I have no problem with his application on the field. I have doubts about it off the field though.

Broadly agree. Call it what it is - a bad signing and time to call it quits.

 

[Weston blade]

If Mcburnie scores Fallowfield is going to need a keyboard protector for the laptop

 

[TJB.]

Don't be daft, he's got enough fucking hats.

Watches, on the other hand...

 

[Cheesebored]

I said the same ages back. Best for both parties. He might make a career for himself somewhere but patently not here. Trouble is who's going to take him off our hands on his wages? He'll probably run his contract down now being available for selection roughly 50% of that time. BUT covid, BUT Swansea.

If I had as much time off work as him I might as well be unemployed. He knows he's getting paid and is invincible because he's a pro. If he starts and don't show enough next cupul of games fuck off for me.

Where's the fictional £13.5m come from then?
The figures I remember were £17-18m up front, rising to £20m with add-ons. I would imagine half of the add-ons were incurred when we survived in the PL.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/football/2019/jul/31/sheffield-united-agree-oli-mcburnie-deal-with-swansea-record-signing

Wilder himself referenced that he cost £20m.
The same people love to convince us that Ramsdale only cost £12m, another nonsense theory.

Burke set up a Benik Afobe goal for Millwall at Luton on Saturday with a cross from the left.

 

[Brewster Cost £70 million]

I can see oli turning to ufc or maybe boxing his 1st fight against jake paul or whatever he's called
