TM loses out on first target, Ricketts to sign hopefully (1 Viewer)

[johnwillomagic]

Have to be honest always thought TM was talking about Prosch when he said this - he is a black and white coach
said he wanted him which is why pretty sure he is the one he's missed out on!

He said to a team in this league though. I suspect it was Luke Williams.

I don't think it's the German. TM said we'd missed out to another L1 club. Nick's returned to the fatherland, iirc.

Hope TM does not miss out on to many others or we will be in trouble, I think its shocked him just how hard it is to get players across the line in this div.

who cares.....they didn't sign for us....next!

Isn't this going to be a recurring feature in all available players ie "give me the money honey"

 

[rightumpty]

Of course I do. Where have you been for the last 8 years.

McMahon confirmed that he turned us and Donny down to join Bradford in an interview.

Got a link?

Got a link?

As he walks out on Bradford debut.

Can't believe Vince McMahon turned us down.

Good chat with Tony McMahon at training today, confirmed he turned down offers from Coventry and Doncaster to rejoin #bcafc

 

[FRY-CCFC]

This means Mowbray wants a RB or will be playing Ricketts there.

 

[rupert_bear]

He needs a right back

 

[Grendel]

Another ex Boro player isn't he?

 

[Robccfc87]

My guess would be Tony McMahon, defender, signed for Bradford, positive he was at Middlesbrough under TM.

I thank you.

 

[Kingokings204]

I thank you.

And that was one of our big summer targets? Jeez

 

[CovLis86]

McMahon turned owning us down you mean?.... #GreatestRumourOfAllTime

 

[Robccfc87]

Well the question was asked and I surmised who the player was. Not trying to break any barriers down here, Christ!!!

Did Mowbray say he had agreed to come here but then went Bradford for a couple of hundred quid a week/month extra? To be fair they will have some money from the cup run to play with and I'm glad Mowbray stuck to his guns and wasn't forced to up his offer.

 

[Chipfat]

It may well have been TM couldn't up his offer!!!!Also TM didn't say who it was that went to another club due to money..

He didn't but the fact that the player has himself stated he turned us down, plus the Middlesbrough/Mowbray link makes me think its more than likely to be him. Plus if he was the first proper target we would sign (Stokes and his non league wages aside) then he would have the chance to move his budget about.

 

[cmoncity]

I think we missed out on richard chaplow aswell.

I think we missed out on richard chaplow aswell.

Why do you think that other than they have worked together before?

You could be right, for some reason i had it in my head he missed out on a fwd other than the german.
