CAS04 11 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 If we only brought in Graham today i think I'd say it's slow progress if I'm honest but our hands are tied. We only have so much money, we can't go out splurging anymore. Graham improves us so it's a step in the right direction and the squad is trimmed ready for a summer overhaul. We haven't lost anyone of note (to date!!!) and that should be considered a massive success given out financial situation. It's progress but not as Middlesbrough fans know it. *********** @CAS04 no deals done yet. Danny Graham looks a certainty. Given is looking iffy Dorrans is 50/50 Doyle has gone to QPR would be happy with Danny, would renew my wedding vows if Given sign full term over the moon about Doyle and think Dorrans could be a game changer.

Given is looking iffy Dorrans is 50/50 Doyle has gone to QPR i have to disagree with this.... look at the players we have got rid of / loaned out to free up wages compared to the people we have brought in..... theres definately money in the club, i was promised when we appointed AK We've let kids plus Juke & Haroun go so there is some to play with but Ayala, Given and Graham plus the Chelsea lads don't come cheap. That doesn't leave a whole of money in the pot. Very true now you put it like that. Right ppl, i offered to do a extra nighshift so that i wasnt sat at home watching Keeping up with the kardashians with the wife, the other bonus is im in the UAE - and 4 hours ahead of the UK so il be tuned in all night keep me entertained boys. anyone want to give me a quick run down with whats happedned so far..... not bothered about linked list just want definate deals in and outs. If you're 4hrs in front, you should be telling us!! Do we get Dorrans? :D Dorrans and Danny both sign, we extend Givens loan and theres a typical 'we missed him at the last minute' deal Link to post Share on other sites
LBP 3,012 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I hope we get at least two attacking players, would not be totally impressed with just Graham coming in Link to post Share on other sites
Prowler 197 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I go away for a few hours and still nothing has happened? Ah, deadline day :D Link to post Share on other sites
Humpty 3,243 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 The way I'm reading it is if we don't get Given, we'll get Dorrans (possibly on loan if Given doesn't come in) If we get a good deal on the Given loan we still MIGHT be able to afford Dorrans. Just. Link to post Share on other sites

jmsguzzi 40 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 We only need Graham now and then let Karanka get his own men in the summer. Though Dorrans would be good. Link to post Share on other sites
CAS04 11 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 anyone have a direct number to any of the top dogs at the club..... thinking about getting one of my Abu Dhabi locals to give them a ring regarding investment and see how long it takes to hit the press. is it too much to ask for a 'like botton' for some of these comments????

AstoriaBoro 152 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 This is like that 3 minutes you have to wait after your lass has widdled on a pregnancy test stick, except I've got to wait almost 8 hours.

AmirAlves 5 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Don't think boro will get Given on loan till the end of the season, he's on £50k p/w which boro simply cannot afford. Villa are demanding his wages to be paid in full I've heard. Dorrans and Graham are good enough for me and does anyone prefer us getting promoted this season or the next?
