God, when did our fans become spoilt brats They became spoilt brats when we were in the premier league and they started shouting for Karanka’s head and booing Stuani when he came on. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

LBP 3,035 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Oh no it's infallible Boro time... If you dont want a 36 year old CB who played less than 100 minutes in the league last season, is on high wages and would cost us a fee you're a spoilt brat! Like it or not people will criticise the decisions that have led to 4 years of consistent regression haha 3 Link to post Share on other sites
TAPOUT 361 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 It would be nice to get a couple over the line, just to change the dynamic of the conversation from, 'We are the most unattractive club in the world' to ' Why are we signing him, he's garbage'. Link to post Share on other sites

We have two injury prone CBs atm and then its inexperienced kids who imo dont look ready. Id rather play Bamba and Stubbs as a cb partnership than Woods and Stubbs or Howson and Stubbs 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He may/may not want big wages if he were to come here. I don't want Bamba. Trying to pass your views as 'footballing reasons' when you've barely seen a lad play football, on the other hand, is just embarrassing. Link to post Share on other sites

Okay sorry I'll quickly give him a watch mate Wait there's only 99 minutes of footage Oh it's okay I've found footage of half of his entire season Wait he appears to have been at fault for the first 2 goals and then was subbed off at half time? 3 Link to post Share on other sites

But that doesnt change we are in the situation we are in and Bamba might be the best option for the club. Also we might have scouted Stewart for years and we still have people turning their nose up at him because he isnt a name or doesnt have 5 star skill.moves on fifa Link to post Share on other sites

We finished in the top 6 in our first season back down, narrowly missed out on top 6 last season and Warnock proved last season that this group can still win games. If it wasn’t for Gibson *** up by appointing Woodgate maybe we wouldn’t be sat here deliberating over Kevin Stewart and Sol *** Bamba. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
RiversideRed 1,216 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) The window for international registrations closes at 11pm on October 5, while there is an agreement between the Premier League and the EFL for an extended two-week domestic only window. I didn't know that. This will shut at 5pm on October 16. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,638 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) Personally think Bamba would be a shocking signing, there's absolutely no way we should be paying a fee for a 35 year old who's been injured or benched for the majority of the last season. He wouldn't be starting and so would be rusty as hell when he actually does play. Not that I really buy the rumour. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
LBP 3,035 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 My worry is we don't make any more permanent signings and complete the squad with loans Howson, Fletcher, Assombalonga, Johnson, Mejias are all out of contract in 2021 and not sure what the situation is with Pears and Wood It just makes the rebuild even bigger and who knows where we'll have finished in the league or who our manager will be for 2021/22 2 Link to post Share on other sites
