Sargent Pepper Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I don't think Ms Coles or AS would have been the reason he went to Villa. Other websites reported his medical before them & agents are always talking. Despite his medical I'm sure his agent heard that Villa may soon be looking for a keeper & eyeing up a bigger percentage got on the blower & kept us hanging on for a few days. Annoying but I'm sure we've stole players from under the noses of clubs before. Not sure it says a lot for Bunn though. A back up most of his career, 3 rd choice at Norwich now facing a battle for 2nd/3rd choice at Villa? Despite what some think I believe Cotts would have eventually had him as his no1 here. Still, at least it shows up some of the smug itk's on here who claimed he had failed the medical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tins Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Villains steal Bunn from Robins. How can they sleep at night?! Shame Patrick Berger isn't at Villa any more..... If they had Berger and Bunn they would only need to sign Gerken! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Isewater Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 He did fail his medical Just a thought but maybe his " condition " means he could n't play as a number 1 . Possibly his body would n't stand up to the rigours of two games a week . Or possibly Villa are a bigger club who offer more money . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he wanted it all over twitter that it was a 'done deal', but it was No, it is absolutely definite he failed it. If you want some sort of empirical proof, think about this - Why was he so definite he was going to sign for an unnamed club he tweeted he would announce it last Monday, when he was 'just off for a medical', and then fell into a well of infinite silence about the deal?

Can't imagine he'd want it widely known, either. http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Erectile-dysfunction/Pages/Treatment.aspx ???? I think it's come from a game of Chinese whispers. Why would Villa sign him if we wouldn't? I think the very rational theory of Villa came in & gazumpted us is just, if not more, plausible. Either way we are not signing him now on to the next unfounded rumour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of reasons: Because he wasn't given the assurances on first team football The contract offer was too low He had further offers but had to wait for the current keeper to go to Middlesbrough He didn't like Steve Cotterills aftershave The water in Bristol tasted funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never read anything less in my life that makes me think something was less 'absolutely definite' - except the bible, possibly No, I know he failed the medical. But since you don't know my word from Adam's I thought you might like some logical deduction to go alongside. Or maybe he just received a call from Villa just before he completed his move here..?! He seems fit enough to have passed their medical today! Not the first time a player has failed a medical somewhere and signed somewhere else.

So did he "fail" the medical, or just not passed it on purpose. There is a massive difference between the two, that's what the confusion is over.

Time will tell who made the right decision It's not a question of listening. I, like plenty of others have heard nothing about him failing, bar what a couple have said on here.

He may of passed his medical, and just before dotting the i's on the contract decided against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
