If we can get our money back on him I'll be delighted He'd surely choose Stoke, being a Rangers fan. He'd *surely* choose a low level Championship team over a Champions League team where he'd be almost certain to win trophies? Rangers fan or not, that would be a baffling career choice?

The only exception I can think of in living memory is Mo Johnstone, and even then his dad supported Rangers while Mo was a Celtic supporter. A few Catholics have played for Rangers in recent decades, but they weren't Hoops fans when they joined. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Can't see him going there at all. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I very much doubt he'd come here, but he'd give opposition defences the s**ts and I'd love to see him terrorising Championship keepers at set pieces. Link to post Share on other sites

nunthorpered 1,922 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Britt will see out his contract. You aren't going to get anyone who will take on his wages. Link to post Share on other sites

Let's just hope he has a good season and wants to extend on more reasonable wages. But I'd hazard a guess and say he will find a better contract on a free in a years leaving us with a hugely expensive nothing. 15 mil fee and about 7-8 million in wages over 4 years.
