We are probably one of the bigger teams in the championship too All our games in the Tuncay period were on Turkish TV. Link to post Share on other sites
Youngy228 1,444 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I think we are one of the biggest names in championship without doubt. Euro final. Premier league. Also historically famous signings eg ravanelli tuncay boksic to name 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Changing Times 12,220 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 In the actual newspaper there is nothing about what he has said there although it simply might not have been written yet. Just an article from today that says they intend to offer him a contract extension if they can't sell him. This is taken from an interview given to another outlet called TRT Spor. In that article it is said that they want 8 million euros for him, that there are 4 teams interested, but they are willing to let him leave if the fee that they want is matched.

Dan1234 1,048 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Hopefully we can get this Boupendza in. Assuming Ameobi is crocked, Browne crocked aswell, am I right in thinking we literally only have Watmore/Tav and Uche for those front 3 positions? Then we are into youth players. Tav and Watmore are hardly reliable injury wise either. Whether it's a inside forward or more of a winger we are in desperate need of quality. Bolasie or Samuel would be great aswell.

Its true that we'll never know what was said behind closed doors, but we did see his performances and motivation decline. And of course he was loaned out shortly after Pulis joined, so either Pulis had built up a vendetta against him before he even joined the club, or he decided Braithwaite's attitude was questionable during those first few weeks. Either way, Braithwaite seemingly couldn't wait to go to Bordeaux only a few months after signing for us. Once you do that, the fans are never going to look favourably on you. People on here must have never fallen foul of a boss or had one that they simply couldn't stick or perhaps its all different in the football world. My theory is pretty simple, I haven't heard anything about Braithwaite's attitude anywhere else he has been or indeed with the Danish National side and thus far he has had a fairly decent career at a high level including several different Countries, strange that. When he joined us he was approachable and friendly towards the fans and even tried the obligatory Parmo up Linthorpe Road. I'm not Inspector Clouseau but clearly something happened during his time here that hasn't happened anywhere else he has been. My only problem in that theory is of course that TP is a thoroughly decent honest chap with a massive reputation for his integrity and playing fast flowing, exciting entertaining football with top class players so there couldn't possibly be any blame at his door. I mean Pulis always loved a great Striker especially all that time he invested in them (that was a cynical tongue in cheek comment by the way just in case it's actually believed). It's not even as though the Club themselves have "previous" for spinning yarns (or should that be threads, Golden ones at that). Throw in that apparently the Club were skint and needed cash or at least that was what Pulis was doing was it not, saving SG a load of money and sorting the Club out? A Footballer's career is a very short one and being focussed on achieving success rather than sat stealing a living for four years of a lucrative contract I would think are very commendable traits in a footballer. Still some people believe any old guff, as the saying goes you can fool some of the people............. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
