Admin Ian M Posted July 1, 2009 Admin Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 That's the name that came to my mind as soon as the rumour of a swap came up. Not that I think it's particularly feasible, just that he's the one I'd like to see here. ....and didn't GJ reveal (or at least heavily hint) in one of his previous interviews that we'd been in for Howard before? As for Cotterill, if people are looking for reasons why Sheffield might let him go then surely the straw-clutching example is that having heard of our interest in re-signing him, Cotts immediately asked for a transfer as he hadn't settled oop north?

Shockwave Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 What about Brian Howard. Love him here, experienced, creative midfielder that scores goals. Isnt that what everybodys been saying we need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric04 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Love him here, experienced, creative midfielder that scores goals. Isnt that what everybodys been saying we need? Doubt it's Howard. Kevin Blackwell put a lot of time and effort into signing him for Sheff United, and only finally got him last October. So it would be a surprise to let him leave so quickly.

Guest Eamer Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 If it's Cotterill that's fine but we've still then got no left winger... Unless GJ's looking to play a 4-3-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evy11_BCFC Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 So has it been established/confirmed/not denied that there is infact a swap from any reputable source? Don't think there is a swap deal. Sounds as if the paper picked up on the potential incoming and put the two stories together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJC Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Add "if it's" in there then if it'll make you happier. It wont affect my mood. It was only a question. EDIT: Just noticed http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12876_5410983,00.html It appears Sheffield United will be adopting the unusual tactic of playing two players per wing next season!

Nugget Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Carney is a very good player, and if involved in the swap deal is good business if he gets regular games under his belt. He can play left back or wing, but have also seen him do well on the right. Aussie's rave about him - although reckon he's a tad big headed, there is a feeling he has been treated badly at Sheff Utd.

Nugget Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Norwich fans thought he was sh*t though when on loan, but he is a free kick specialist. Strange how Bayern Munich were after him though recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olé Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 So we'd swap a 30 year old player who's good in the Championship but no better for one in his early 20s who's played a number of games in the Premier League... and they'd pay us? I'd take that in a flash! Maybe it's one of those deals based on writing off outstanding instalment payments, like with Murray. Okay in this case it would involve an extra club, i.e. us writing off Wigan payments on the basis they write off Sheff Utd payments, and we then give Sheff Utd McIndoe - saving them money and giving them a player, in a round about way equates to Cotterill's worth. Just a thought - that often seems to be the general format when clubs are able to re-sign quality expensive departures. If not, I'm wondering if it's that long haired Irish midfielder who went up there from Watford. He scored against us and looks like he has GJ's work and team ethic.

bcfcbs20 Posted July 2, 2009 Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 i would be over the moon if we got cotts back but failing that theres a great left winger who plays for oldham i cant think of his name off the top of my head but he got some great reviews last season and might be worth looking at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I like the idea of us paying a fee and giving them McIndoe because it suggests that we're the ambitious buying club and getting the better end of the deal. Is the Irish midfielder you mention John-Joe O'Toole? I'd be delighted if we signed him, he's looked brilliant every time I've seen him play. Any one of him, Cotterill or Howard would be an improvement on McIndoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
