Hendrie_7 1,068 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 i read somewhere he's supposed to be on £40k a week, so i presume IF this is true then we'd be paying a hefty chunk of those, if not all, plus a loan fee. it would seem a massive gamble, but when has gibbo ever turned down the chance to try and push us to the next lesson. could be an inspired signing, uwe mk II Link to post Share on other sites

Smogzilla 7,385 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Blimey o'reilly looks like were rolling the dice again. These are the sort of decisions the club lives and dies by. Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 What a massive statement of intent from the Boro if this pans out and clearly indicates that promotion is the goal THIS SEASON for all concerned. This would be a real injection to every fans morale due to the lack of goals recently Link to post Share on other sites

Tom 2,492 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I wonder if this has been something that has been going on in the background for a while, or is a reaction to our recent struggles in front of goal? Link to post Share on other sites
Will 2,958 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Reading the Gazette its sounds like a done deal. The gazette doesn't tend to put anything on their website or into the paper unless its a done deal. Link to post Share on other sites
ham_chop 36 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 He's a fantastic footballer - I'm delighted about this Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 It does appear that way NB due to what they are stating and I am sure that Boro would not be allowing this to be "out there" if this is not the case. One thing though does this mean the end of Vossen come seasons end? Link to post Share on other sites
Prowler 197 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'd imagine that Agnew has A LOT to do with this. Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,246 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Certainly it's not only the fans that has seen we are struggling up front. Karanka can't be happy with our main strikers output (Kike and Vossen). We need something else up there and Rhodes is a proven finisher at this level. Could be an astute signing and if we don't go up we are not stuck with an expensive signing. It's a low risk deal and could help us bag 100 million with a few goals. Link to post Share on other sites

I would guess the the latter... We just haven't been ruthless enough and that could cost us a top 2 finish... I'm not sure about Rhodes all-round game but he is a proven championship goalscorer who probably wont need time to settle in... A bit like how Bent hit the ground running with Derby.

The gazette doesn't tend to put anything on their website or into the paper unless its a done deal. That`s what I mean.. They don't tend to print it in such a way if its not a done deal... Its exciting :) Link to post Share on other sites
