Old Codger 3,064 Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 I was going to say something along the lines of Smith would be worth having because he is used to life in a YOYO CLUB and could give us a BOOST but then I thought if I didn't pick up a PENGUIN for The Jew, he would make sure the mods BANDIT..... so I decided defeat was inevitable and just DRIFTER'd away.. before someone BANJO'd me 🙂 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Redcar Rioja 5,975 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I see Jon Toral has been released by Birmingham. He always impressed me when he was at Brentford and I thought he would go on to have a great career. Clearly something has stalled and spluttered. I think that there is something deep within him and could be a real bargain Watmore style if Warnock can get his mojo back. It could just be that the basket case that Birmingham are is simply the cause of his downfall. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Warnock has been talking him up in interviews recently so I tend to believe he's in the shop window. I had heard something similar but from a not particularly reliable source. I guess it would make sense if he could bring in some money that could be spent on say two replacements. The effect of the pandemic on football finances in general let alone a club like Boro is huge as the piece that Humpty posted earlier from FMTTM indicates. Tough times will call for tough decisions no doubt. Link to post Share on other sites
Aphex_Boro 1,444 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Can't wait to sell an actually competent footballer and replace him with two 6'4 ogres that we will be stuck with in a years time when Warnock retires. Link to post Share on other sites

They were pretty much on the money about Derby though. Even bloggers have to get their info somewhere, (unless they're the type that just makes stuff up for clicks), so presumably they have sources of their own. Link to post Share on other sites
Youngy228 1,444 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 So in the spirit of transfer gossip. What would you accept for: Fry? McNair? Tav? Spence? Link to post Share on other sites

Fry = 10m + sell on fee (but I'd rather not sell him if at all possible) McNair = 5m Tav = 20m + sell on fee (I really don't want to sell him) Spence = £1m + sell on fee (I wouldn't sell him without one of those).

Youngy228 1,444 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I should probably have said mine! Fry 12 million + clauses (Think club would sell at 8+clauses) McNair? 5 million (Think club would sell for 4) Tav? 12 million (Think club would see for 6-7) Spence? 1 million + clauses (Think that's probably what club would go for) Link to post Share on other sites
