RedM Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Don't know what else I can add, just a big thankyou to all involved in this deal. A huge signing who would grace any Championship team and he signed for us! It feels so right, he lifted us when we needed lifting and brings the best out in all around him. Very happy with this and our intent. The thought of seeing him line up against us for someone else was horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he's coming on loan for the rest of the season, hopefully can help us stay up. We could really do with getting a manager though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great evening…can't wait for the new season...and the Euros aren't even over yet. He must have really meant some of the things he said at the end of last season about never having been appreciated at a club before he came to City and that has obviously been the motivation behind him coming back. Obviously he had to get a deal that was right for him but I don`t think his desire to be here was ever in doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So is Lee Tomlin #BristolCity's record buy? Sources at this end of the deal say no, it's less than the £2.25m paid for Nicky Maynard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All hail the Beecroft! How true. A display of colourful local knowledge did the trick in clinching Lee's monograph : a tour of the beauty spots, cemetries, strip clubs and well-known theatrical sayings of South Bristol : Ashton Vale, Arnos Vale, the Dance of the Seven Veils, 'Twas all to no avail. and probably most impressive a searing analysis of a parking dilemma "Thees got 'un wer theese casn't back 'un 'asn't" Stupendous virtuoso stuff from Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 If it is less than the Maynard fee then I suspect there'll be plenty of clauses in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Middlesbrough Robin Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Bargain, although we'll never know how much of a burden on the club his wages could be. Worth it though I reckon. Maybe we've waived some sort of promotion bonus on Adomah and Middlesbrough have waived a sell on bonus on Tomlin, hence a lower transfer fee. That would explain why it has taken so long.

Anyone would think he just likes moaning. The old boy has supported this (useless!) club for eight decades - eight frickin decades. There's been about six good seasons in that time! No wonder he moans/frets/despairs. Let him moan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveF Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 The best player I've seen play for City in the 20 years I've been watching. Players like Tomlin make the cost of a season ticket worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
