CheddarReds Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 so he might be going back up to the championship. A player most thought of as poor. Suprising. Did GJ sign him for us when we were in the championship? or was it a different manager? I think it was Gary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stroudy Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 GJ signed him for us I believe and also on loan for Peterborough when he was manager there. Must like him as a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what they said about us when we went up, and Blackpool when they got promoted to the Prem........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaner89 Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 That's what they said about us when we went up, and Blackpool when they got promoted to the Prem........ I understand that, but I really can't see them staying up with the current squad and additions they are making. Would love to be proven wrong, for GJs sake - but can't see it happening.

Would love to be proven wrong, for GJs sake - but can't see it happening. People said with our signings last year we were relegation certainties..........GJ is building a team of players wanting to prove themselves to bigger clubs, like yourselves, that they can make it. This is a good formula for a poor club like us as whatever the outcome we won't financially have lost much! Good luck this season on what is hopefully a short stay in league one......genuinely!!

Neil, I really hope it is a short stay too - and like I said I hope you do stay up, I just think it will take a bit more than your current crop to survive. If anyone can do it, its GJ so hopefully meet you next season in the Championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfcnick Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Should get a fee for him as still only 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaner89 Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Should get a fee for him as still only 24. Thats what I thought, so hopefully we will get a nice chunk for him. Obviously the reason why he was offered terms though cuz I read that if we had not shown an intention to keep him on, we would not be entitled to anything. Bit of a grey area for me, just hope to generate a bit of cash for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neiltheglover Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Should get a fee for him as still only 24. We won't sign him if a fee is involved. I think he has to be under 24 when offered a new contract for a fee to be involved, but he had already turned 24. I stand to be corrected though.

GrahamC Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 No fee, we didn't match his previous contract. He's 25 soon and is no longer on our payroll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcusX Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I think he'll do well there, new club and a clean slate. He never had a real crack of the whip here, bearing in mind he is only 24 and could do with a solid, experienced partner alongside him. Nowhere near his prime for a CB and still learning, he showed some signs of class on occasions, most notably when there was less pressure, Southampton away on New Years Eve in their promotion season is a prime example.
