BearSmog 1,382 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I think somebody mentioned Sam Byram as a possible option at right back a week or so back. He has just signed for Norwich on a 4 year deal. Link to post Share on other sites

He has just signed for Norwich on a 4 year deal. Seeing that he has gone to Norwich, then it isn't such a disappointment that we couldn't compete to sign him. We wouldn't be able to offer the same sort of wages Norwich can due to their premier league status. Link to post Share on other sites
"KM" 1,656 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) It doesn't matter anymore we've already got our new right back. Jonny Howson. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmy 140 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Sam Byram for £750k. I know we were never linked, and he’s gone to a premier league team, but it just shows how cheap you can get a good full back for. As we are so severely lacking in this department, we really can’t justify not strengthening in this area, and I’ll be really disappointed if we’re starting the season with Friend and Shotton at fullback.

If you did Does it say how much the directors take out of the club? Link to post Share on other sites
