Fucking hell. Dreadful news. RIP OSB.

Yeah, there's some on here that take joy in berating our players. It's just weird. Not as good as Sky Blue Sam FFS. Do you know what...I'm done. I'm done with the negativity. Its not good for people's mental health. Laters.

Let's hope players don't take too much notice of this forum.

Didn't listen but the feeling I get from the posts on this thread is that he comes across well and some of the things he said were positive, albeit, we need to take with a slice of scepticism - probably a hangover from the Sisu years. I guess we've got more from him than what we got from Joy at...

I didn't realise our goals scored total was so low. Only 3 teams have scored have scored less. It is a bonkers division though with just 10 points separating 7th and 21st.

To be fair, it's not 20% of £18m. It's 20% of profit we make on him. If we bought him for £1.5m and sell him for £18m, then it's 20% of £16.5m. Although I'm not sure if wages/agents fees are included in the profit calculation. And to be fair, it'll probably differ by club and deal as well.

Pretty big place that!

Not really. You said that MRs inability to change players has backfired. My point is that, well, not really. If he was an unsuccessful manager whose decisions were responsible for our downfall, then yes...his ability to change players would've backfired. But that's not the case. Has there been...

I mean, he's got us promoted twice, won the tin-pot cup and kept us in the Championship at the first attempt (and looking like doing it again). There'll be things that work out and things that don't to be fair. MR's continually taken us forward in this 2nd stint. He's earned some lee-way in...

Absolutely no chance of Cantwell coming here with Rangers and PSV Eindhoven interested.

Do you know what the signing on fee and agent fee was? You cannot say he'll cost us around £3m without knowing that info. I doubt his signing on fee and agent fee combined is close to £1m.

I said he was an 'ok' signing...he didn't exactly set the world alight. But he was a good partner for Gyo at the beginning (but I've said that about 5 times and it's still not resonating).

I think my point still stands. Before he got Covid, he was still a good partner that got some good stuff out of a raw Gyo. Given our budgets and owner at the time, he was an OK signing and did OK. Certainly not deserving of some of the nonsense on this thread.

I'm not clinging...a few posters on here have mentioned it. He obviously hasn't been the same since Covid. Before then, maybe he didn't smash them in regularly. But he was a great foil for Vik. If I had the time I'd look for those match threads. I suspect the feedback on them is positive and...

Which he deserved when he was playing well. He then got ill and as his employer, the club had a duty of care to pay his wages whilst he was ill and recovering. Like they do with O'Hare, like they do with Godden, like they do with McFadzean etc etc

Can't believe the negativity around Waghorn. He and Gyo had a great partnership up until he got Covid. He obviously has some form of long covid that affected his performances since. Good luck to him...I hope he does well. Also well liked amongst the squad. Players normally react poorly with...

TBF, Gyokeres has received interest from other clubs but is 'apparently' staying.

Yeah but this is like one step forward, 3 steps back!

Yeah, kind of agree. And I wonder - does MR get a say in contract length or is it the board who decides? Or a combo of them both?!

I guess MR who sees him day in, day out, thinks he's got a decent future ahead of him and wanted to get him tied down to a decent deal. Slightly surprised it's not a 2 or a 3 yr deal mind.
