Was part of the plan having to send them back to their previous clubs because of how poor they’ve been? Have a day off, every signing is a risk. People are happy for us to spend 2mill plus on Maddison but when it's a keeper who has been scouted by the recruitment team, Coyne and Percovich you don't trust them? Our fans love a moan 2 Link to post Share on other sites
BoroJake 2,332 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Bit harsh to write off Bola and Browne already too. They are only 22 Link to post Share on other sites

Our fans love a moan I haven’t criticised the signing at all, I’m playing devils advocate to the idea that any signing that the club signs off on must therefore be part of the plan and not subject to any questioning. Presumably Mejias was re-scouted by all of these people as well, if he was actually good enough (which your logic would suggest he is) then we wouldn’t even need to sign this new fella. Its a message board, people tend to discuss things on them. Link to post Share on other sites

I genuinely dont see the difference between playing devils advocate and criticism Link to post Share on other sites

Our fans love a moan Haven’t seen many people at all saying they were happy spending the 2+million on Maddison. They were happy if it was at a lower price. Going by past transfers and dealings the club has made, it’s a fair judgement to say that we might have overpaid. It’s not a moan. Imo I don’t actually see how on the face of it, he’s worth £1mill. He’s came from the Swiss league, a team finishing 6th, and can’t get into the Macedonian squad. Not to mention his contract was out in 6 months. We must really rate him. He might turn out great and I hope he does. Link to post Share on other sites
