NewquayRed Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Suspect that he's starting to turn heads again amongst those struggling in the bottom end of the Prem, cant help but feel that we have to keep him on board in January if we have any hope of a top half finish. Huge January window coming up both in terms of incoming and outgoing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Louie Donowa goal Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Can’t see any member of the first team squad of around 23 leaving in January if anything we need players in. Next summer may see some big moves but not in Jan I hope anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roe Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 His asking price has at least doubled as of this moment imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordofthebling Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 He would be turning heads, but he also seems to be enjoying his football more than ever. With Eros out for 3/4 months, and Bailey covering RB - I cant see anything other than Flint staying here until the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brady bunch Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Yep, the danger will be a big cash offer from a prem side, which is more than likely given his form and goals. The danger is past of him joining a team below us I think.... as per Russel85's well made point.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 If we are genuine promotion contenders I can’t see that any club who would genuinely want him being that attractive a proposition for him. The interested parties are likely to be premier league strugglers at best, if we have a genuine shot at promotion I think he’d want to see it through. All hypothetical of course. There’s also the fact that we would demand an extraordinary fee to let him leave in Jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendyredredrobin Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 A foorballers careee is short, so a big money offsr from a prem team with a 3 yr contract might tempt him. He might end up being relegated whilst we go up, but money talks. Would hate to see him leave though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edge1981 Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 If we are in the promotion mix in January then I can’t see us selling. Certainly not to a team in our division. Yes we could get a bid from a Swansea or a Bournemouth but any prem team that would most likely be interested could be in the championship next year. I would imagine LJ would tell him if we go up then you’re in for a huge pay rise. If we stay down then we’ll let you go. Would hate to see him leave - he’s a talisman for us and the Cardiff game proved it yet again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledAjax Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 He's joining 20man on Sound of the City tonight. RB at 6pm. https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/dj-flint-on-air-tonight/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon uk Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 If a prem bid from say west brom came in, it would set him up for life. Anyone would take it, and flint has given good service and would deserve it, and should pretty much be allowed to go. And im sure in that situation the club wouldnt stop anyone going, as long as a realistic fee was agreed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingswoodactor Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 He's pretty much a ready made replacement for McAuley at West Brom. I also think Flint is better than that Hegazi bloke they have at the moment too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
