With the transfer to Boro and the sell on from Villa the percentage on that initial payment has to be around 3000% even allowing for a sell on from us to Barnet. When you consider that we got bloody good value out of him while he was here which we didn`t with Bolasie he`d be my choice from the last twenty years or so. We sold albert for 1.5 million. We certainly didn't get 1.5 from a sell on, seeing as the fee was only 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand to be corrected but I thought it was a lot less than that and more about him wanting away than us wanting to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said a 3000% markup, suggesting we got 3 million from him. We didnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didnt Ah right. I was working that out on getting him for 100k and selling him for 1mil then getting 20% of the 7mil profit Boro made when they sold him to Villa for 8mil. On that basis the guy `earned` us 2.3mil so overestimated it a bit - should have got me calculator out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoldenBall Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Think he deserves credit for putting up with the shit from the pikeys, the death threats, posting his address online, and the rest, still puts in consistent performances week in week out. If he can improve his instinctive finishes we have a hell of a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoxton casual Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Taylor is absolute quality with is movement and vision. Strong low centre of gravity, changes direction quickly and a nice little bit of power to accelerate out of a tackle. His first touch and finishing do not seem at the same level yet but hopefully that will improve. Best of all to quote SC he seems to be a "Winner". Competitive, level headed and always making something happen. Really hope he can do a great job for us next season particurarly linking up with Patto but we need a big guy to play with him.

cidered abroad Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 I know I live in the past but Jack Connor as a straight swap for a non performing left winger, John McCann, was a great bit of business. Ten years of solid centre half performances made him a priceless signing. For our younger members Jack was a yesteryear Aden Flint. Hard, great in the air, never considered a ball player and if centre halves of that era had been allowed to go up for corners, would have done as well as Flinty for goals.

Missed 2/3 yesterday and no where near MOM Tammy, Patterson, Flint and Joe B way ahead of him. Still have to give him time to acclimatise to Championship Strange, I think his anticipation Is one of his major strengths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenkibby. Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 John Galley was pretty cheap back in the day. About 25,000 I think? Hat trick on his debut away from home to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
