Don't agree with point #2.
Bogle wanted out and in last year of contract. He was worth probably £6-8m when sold but contract status meant we cashed in.
I think you are the first person to say getting £10m for Osula was bad business.
Literally a lol MOMENT re Wilders good fees
wILDER HAD DCL for a full season
'Sold' him to Everton to take an immediate place in the Prem (in his start position of midfield)
for a reported £800K but was said by Dave Unsworth to be much less!
Is that really a good price for a young starter in the Prem? (clue rhetorical question)
******* brilliant if you are buying from the imbecile
The WORRYING thing is I do not think you were joking!
Under Ancellotti he was rated as a £75 million target for Manure!
Same as David Brookes was three months into him playing REGULARLY following his transfer
before a serious injury and before serious illness which put the nail in that coffin.
As for Bogle he was our best player the previous Prem season
That was why he was Leeds NO 1 TARGET
But he had had just two disastrous, embarrassing seasons under Wilder in the Prem
and would not stay
but try his luck with an unknown on the basis it could only be a step up from Wilder
Which it was.
As all our younger players have fled wILDER ASAP
Wilder does not use (OUR) younger players
(eg One who incidentally in two cameos at the end of MillwaLl H then Boro Away looked our best (only?) two footed crosser!)
He's a third rate journeyman who brings in masses of journeymen
on higher wages
in the hope a few of them can combine and sort out a team between them
As for Osula
He was the TOP academy prospect according to those who had overseen the best ever crop including Illiman as well as the others
Osula still has ten years playing at the top level
The fact that I am the only one saying SOMETHING is symptomatic of the ignorance and imbecility surrounding SUFC
I have allocated the name Gormless Gobshite Giddens
BUT FFS the 'village idiot' of Football heaven is actually unbelievably Oxley
or can they do even worse?
You know the imbecile who proudly proclaimed we had ripped Howe off for Osula
(cf Cannon BALLS FFS for one recent one)
This time describing this transfer as a fee for a player who might not perform
Describing Brooks as a RIGHT WINGER
In the phrase 'RIGHT good left WINGER or midfielder' is the only place where that term can be considered relevant
The bloke is brain dead
No wonder some cops spend years without making one arrest if they're as thick as him.
(ignoring people arrestED bleeding out lying on the floor of course)
I will tell you here and now,.
Andre Brooks is already a £30 million player playing correctly under a good manager.
I would sooner have him than Hutchinson and McAtee BOUGHT FOR THAT at Forest
Came to that position watching the U-21's win last summer.
(and here)
If Norwich play him correctly they will be pushing the top teams (but probably failing)
rather than playing for the playoffs.
And whether or not they fail in the playoffs they can still cash in on Brooks
As we could and should have done.
Last season we had two of the best attacking players in the division
But the imbecile played both Brooks and Hamer totally out of position
Hence losing what should have been a guaranteed place in the playoffs
following on what should have been guaranteed autos if not champions.
