I’m sure if he could turn back time he’d have never left us in the first place. True but if we can't afford a transfer fee for him he won't be coming back. Link to post Share on other sites

It'll be one of those situations; player clearly wants to leave, only wants to move to one club so if club doesn't ease expectations of the fee coming in, they're stuck paying for someone they can't afford to keep as they're never gonna give their all. Something tells me Burnley will not budge but bigger clubs have in the past. I'd love to have Gibbo back for the right price but this saga is just turning into one of those dreadful examples of player power over clubs. We've experienced this very recently with Braithwaite and whilst Gibson might be on the fringes of Burnley's team, it still must be incredibly frustrating for Burnley to have to deal with him right now.

Smoggydownsouth 1,621 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Get rid of lots of wages in summer which only helps the cause... I think we will let the following leave on a free Gestede Clayton Shotton Friend- player / coach role Britt will be sold I agree unless he falls into the wage structure. Ayala - will offer a contract but not sure he will sign... could see him end up at a fulham. The summer will be the big overhaul in my opinion... have to say that the club have done well with what they have done... addressing the wages and average playing add being drastically reduced. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

That leaves McNair, Savile and Fletcher on decent champo money, but not mad money. We should be in a really good financial position to kick on Agree Boromart. As DFDS replied earlier, good use of the loan market, some well chosen permanents and the return of some promising youngsters should see a much better season. Link to post Share on other sites

Gibson is a Teessider, he knows how to hold a grudge, if he feels he's not been treated fairly. Whatever the reasons for him accepting the move he personally would have wanted assurances about playing time/opportunities which have obviously not been lived up to. So now he'll cut off his nose etc. Just like Cloughie/Taylor. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TAPOUT 361 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I see Oxford sold 2 players for 3 million yesterday. As Browne has been playing well for them I wonder if they may look to make his deal permanent in the summer 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Maccarone 265 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Thank you to the ITK members that make this thread so interesting . SDS, RAF, Lurker,Digger and any I've missed. Rumours are just that, but you're inside info majestic for such good reading. Please keep posting your snippets of info they make all the difference. Thank you Link to post Share on other sites
Gilling Red 21 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I would like to see Gibson move to a good premier league club and proves his worth. If he is any good that move would be good for him an the club he goes to. Coming back to us appears to be a easy option and proves to me he has little ambition. One fact is true he has wasted 2 years of a short career going to Burnley. Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you The ITK pyramid goes like this RAF gets his info from Lurker who gets it from SDS. SDS is Diggerlad’s alternative profile who gets his info from DZ. CT makes all of the transfer rumours up on a whim of which his son (DZ) deciphers and passes on the truth from the fantasy. So all the thanks must go to the brilliance of Changing Times cheers CT 👍😉 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone likes to invent these far fetched stories and they get even more exaggerated where Burnley and Dyche are involved. I can't imagine Gibson was ever guaranteed a game when he signed for Burnley. The reality is that he hasn't been good enough or fit enough to get into the team. After that I'm sure he'd like to move somewhere else which would be back here ideally. That doesn't mean to say he's downed tools or Dyche is holding him there against his will either.

TeaCider24 12,633 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Kept hold of every senior player except Randolph, signed 5 players. If Ravel Morrison and Mokoudi perform half decent then I'd call this a successful January window. Just a shame Roberts is out for so long and that we couldn't get Gibson back, but we'll have plenty of defenders in a month if Friend and Shotton aren't immediately crocked again. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
