ZiderEyed Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 And so it begins. The foretold mass exodus. Not quite sure why he's gone though, he must be on an enormous wedge already and they'd have to be offering quite a lot more to turn his head. Such a shame. Love you Flinty. Without a doubt my favourite City player in my lifetime. Absolute legend and won't have a bad word said about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double or triple the wages I expect. If a player really wants to go there’s very little power a club actually holds these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenred Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Bollocks bollocks bollocks. Genuinely gutted about this. Good luck Big Man and thank you for the good times. Will always be a club hero to me. Hope it's for more than £5m!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have zero faith in Mark Ashton and the Prodigal Son to deliver anything like a replacement for City's talisman. Up the Adam Webster imo. Kill me.

'Orns Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 11 minutes ago, View from the Dolman said: GeeMacGee is also reporting it as "done". Fair play, GMcG was saying on the podcast yesterday that he was convinced Flint would stay. Now posting 'it's done' like he knew it all along, liked him when he came in, but he really does know no more than the rest of us, does he? No way have we sold him for £5m, not having that And the annoying thing here is the last time I saw Flint play for us was Brentford, and he was absolute ******* bobbins that day, along with the rest of them. That is my last memory of the big fella Genuinely gutted about this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could well be his only ever shot at a genuinely big contract by today’s standards. It’s hardly a secret that Flint very much loves the ‘wealthy’ lifestyle so I imagine he’s more concerned with the salary than the club he’s at (not a criticism, can’t blame him) 1 minute ago, Mtimmy11 said: I understand what your saying mate but it's beginning to grind my gears when we have the wealthiest owner we will ever have and we are still being left behind.

EnderMB Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 I'm not sure where the £7m figures are coming from. Almost everything I've seen from journalists on Twitter suggest that the fee is £5m, with reductions based on sell-on fees, so in reality we're probably getting closer to £4m. If so, the board have a lot to answer for. As others have said, Flint is captain is everything but name, so if we lose him without an adequate replacement then LJ, Ashton, and Lansdown can **** off with their talk of promotion.

Agree In my nigh on 50 yrs following City right up there for me One of the most influential players we’ve had and certainly in that position Admire how he’s gone from Non League to where he is now A Warrior Ohhhhhh for a team of Aden Flints Massive holes to fill with his departure Could be the beginning of the end for one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
