Mystery signing?

[Pinchy]

Ah, I wondered why I’d unfollowed him.
Cheers LB

He’s gone “private” some time ago, hasn’t he?

 

[mancunianblade]

Watch it be Blackman

What does the second tweet say?

You wont believe number 7

 

[sheffielder]

What has Darren the Accountant got to say about the rumours?

 

[S40BLADE]

Henderson&Hogan announced tommorow.

How much money you got on this one then?

 

[Bladeinleeds]

'Strappy', eh? Didn't know there was any previous with him and this forum. Followed him a while back because he seemed a bit ITK. Must admit the Tommy Robinson love fest on his feed has made me question my decision at times but his opinion on the Blades has always seemed decent value.

Aye. Unfollowed for the same reason

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

Flecks new contract....

Think you’re bang on with this.

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

Not someone "new".
McDonald?

Old McDonald?

 

[Rusty view]

Just this second

 

[AdamSufc1997]

do we have a buy back clause on che adams

 

[Toronto Blade]

Well only a day to see if this rumour is garbage or not.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

I hear Henderson loan extended to all next season.

 

[Woodys Thunderbolt]

I'm hearing from someone who gets most things right Hendo on 4 year contract & A bit harder to believe, Charlie Austin.

 

[AdamSufc1997]

that it thought it would have been permanent or something

I think you’ll stop believing that guy come tomorrow.

 

[Ricky]

Just remember that it's prime bullshit and attention seeking time.

 

[Booker4]

Don't think Washington can go anywhere because he's already played for 2 clubs this season; stupid EFL rules.

This times 100

I could have been swayed re Charlie Austin if we hadn't signed Madine.

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

Apparently so, which makes sense if he’s posting racist nonsense. He’s clearly not quite as proud of his views as he’d claim if he has to hide them away.

 

[TJB.]

I could see Henderson signing permanently if Manchester United stuck a buy back clause in there. If they let us have him on the cheap now, they could potentially pick up a very good English 'keeper for fuck all in future whilst getting him off their books and bringing someone else through.

Aside from that, it just seems a bit too good to be true.

I'm not even going to entertain the Austin idea.

Just heard that myself. Great news if true.

 

[blade789]

Wouldnt be surprised if we have a few on around the £20k per week mark by now?

100% more than a few.

 

[YES Blade]

To me, that wouldn’t make any sense from a Man U point of view. Surely they would want to keep their options open for next season.

They won’t be short of loan offers in the summer, so they can wait and decide what is best for them and Deano. After proving himself in the Championship, the preference must be for Premier League football and there obviously is no guarantees of that with us at the moment.

It does seem too good to be true but not impossible.

He’s impossible to buy as our asset exclusively, even with a sell on fee, but what you mention is not beyond the realms of possibility.

This is how I understand the buy back would work (similar to a loan). It would cover his wages and fee. So £3m fee plus £3m wages @ £20k per week for 3 years. At the end of that period (and not before) Man Utd would effectively recall the loan and reimburse us and then sell or use him. If they don’t we’ve got a keeper for £6m, which could turn out to be amazing business or very shit.

Hypothetically, and at his current potential it’s looking like he’d be with us for 3 years and bought back by Man Utd. They then use him or sell him for a profit or we negotiate an additional fee (if we are in the promise land) based on their valuation.

Still got us by the bollocks but we’ve got a top keeper for the remainder of his contract.

Having posted all that, I’m not sure how a contract renewal would work. Basically I have no idea, clinging to it I guess !

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

What does the second tweet say?

Hammond coming back

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Dean Hammond returns as Director of football!!

Beat me to it

 

[BigBed]
