As Quasimodo once said, I had a hunch it was something like that Is he any good or does he miss sitters? Well he couldn't cut it as a full back, so he's now a defensive midfielder.

As is congested season is more mid week games than sky have the rights too. So some mid week rounds aren't available. This week is one of these.

TeaCider24 12,401 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) Howson has signed another 1 year extension on his contract. He's here till the end of 21/22 now. 👍 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully the new contract is on slightly reduced terms too, would give us a bit more financial wiggle room. Link to post Share on other sites

BoroSmoggie 2,678 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 If Howson continues to play the deepest of the 3 midfielders, essentially what Clayton used to do, I can easily see him actually getting better over the next couple years. He’s still got great legs for his age, and his performances this season have been pretty much 8/10 every game. Link to post Share on other sites

The website story is a little contradictory, the headline is "Howson Signs New Boro Contract" indicating it's a "new" contract. Then the 2nd paragraph states "by signing an extended contract" which indicates it's simply an extension to his current deal. At least the way I'm reading it is contradictory.

Old Codger 3,039 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 It is encouraging that we are getting contracts sorted a little earlier than usual and that the negotiations are seemingly going smoothly. Hopefully the trend continues, as the last thing we need is a situation where a few players are allowed to see out their contracts and move on without fees like the end of last season. Britt has a big decision to make as he must know he will not get a similar contract from us, so unless he wants to settle for a move to USA or China, he is going to have to be content with lower wages. I think the way the game has changed in the last few years does not suit his style of play. He seems to lack the ball control and work rate that most teams require and is not adept at creating openings for himself, but he may find somewhere that suits him. He seems like a decent lad so good luck to him wherever he ends up (as long as he doesn't come back to haunt us). Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,401 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Would absolutely love if we could tie down McNair for longer, that'd be the big one for contracts. Link to post Share on other sites
Old Codger 3,039 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 If he isn't done by January, you can guarantee that one of the lower Prem teams will make an offer for him, particularly someone like Fulham who are desperate for defensive solidity. Link to post Share on other sites
