Last one's not so important for stoney IMO my opinion.

 

It might be if your the unlucky fucker driving along in your Uno, minding your own business. Have you got an agreed value on the Uno? or is it a Tipo?

She's the Uno I dream of owning.

 

One day.

To me, this seems to be suggesting that £400k is what we will be getting compensation for him in the summer if he goes, so we are looking for a bit more than that now if anyone is interested.

 

Think Brown would be doing this for one of two reasons.  Either to put him in the market now, and try and raised some cash.  Or to put him in the market to try and show that no-one is willing to pay that now to encourage him to sign a new deal. 

 

Personally, unless there is a decent amount over the predicted compensation offered this month, I don't see the point in selling him.  The January market is over-inflated, so Brown won't be spending the money now (it may even disappear and be forgotten about by summer).  Not only that, but every signing so far has been short-term contracts as Brown wants to rebuild in the summer.

Or.................

 

Broon's got some "big name" (well for us) player in mind for a 6 month loan, and £400K will be his wage?

 

No possibiity.  :o

There is no way we would pay someone the equivalent of £15k per week.

He's only been half decent for the past 6 months, if that.  I'd make him a final offer and if he refuses then I'd drop the fucker from the squad and see how much interest he gets from not being in the shop window.

 

If he still goes then we get £300-400k development fee (if that's true) and it also sets a president to any other youth players that they still have a long way to go before the can start acting like prima donnas.

 

We made him, we should have the balls to break him.

Not sure I'd even go back 6 months... Last few games maybe as he's been consistent. But it shows you what can happen under the right manager, playing in a team with confidence.

 

The Hibs game was the first I can remember where he has played decent on the wing. Saw him play on the wing against Alloa and he was pathetic; but got moved into the middle in the last 20 mins and had a decent game and scored a cracker. Will be interesting to see where he slots in the next couple of months.

 

I'd like to see him stay on though. Seems to be developing a great partnership with Vernon.

I think this pretty much sums it up for me, in particular the last bit! Probably our most efficient partnering we've had for years i would have thought?

News International : Blackburn swoop for Maguire.

Willie McKay in today's EE: "We have yet to receive a firm contract offer from anyone for Maguire".

 

Brown in today's EE: "We've had no approaches for Chris or any of the other players whose contracts are due to expire at the end of the season.  I've already stated that I'm hoping Chris will stay here".
