Aaron-Bcfc Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Stockhausen is probably wrong about us not making a bid, Mark Bunn was a done deal two days ago now he's just a target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redman91bcfc Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Since our transfer policy changed properly last season, I would say that we don't have a set figure budget per say. The right player, valued at the right price and SL will open the cheque book. If SC, KB and Board believed that Maguire was a perfect personality fit for our squad and adding to the fact that he is young and quite experienced at this level and above and that his value will only rise in future years then I could see us spending this sort of money. More than anything it excites me that we are targeting this type of player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handsofclay Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 I've merged a couple of other threads from the forum into this one. A player isn't going to have his own thread until he has signed and pictured holding his shirt infront of a Digger at Ashton Gate, so there! Now, now Red M, what did your father teach you. That isn't a Digger, that's an Australian military gentleman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendip City Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 I'm not sure whether I'm excited by this or thinking it feels a bit too much like the summer we didn't sign Craig Dawson and Billy Jones.... Let's hope excited is right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon uk Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 This is all good fun, but we only have 2 front line strikers on the books, and 1 is 35 and the other is out for 2 months. Unless we have about 7 million to spend, then dropping 2.5 on one centre back seems insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone recently mentioned a top scorer scoring only 8 goals, well 8 times 1-0 wins is 24 points in the bag. I doubt if we are solely chasing defenders at the moment. I'm not anxious yet, even with the Agard news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team has more goals in it than that one, regardless of signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Cyril Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 It is pretty obvious why we are seeking a new CB - Flint is moving to a Centre forward role this season. Keep up people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team has more goals in it than that one, regardless of signings. Yes, having a top scorer might be nice but better if the goals are spread. Look at the success last year with everyone believing they could score, and did. The season before we had Baldock and Jet, top scorers in League One. That didn't get us very far the following season, one had left (thanks for the money) and one hardly featured. Having one person scoring all the goals isn't as valued as it is thought to be.

I bet Norwich spent about that last year. Re: our budget, I guess it depends what's included. I think in terms of transfer fees we can potentially pay we're probably not bottom 6, maybe wages though.

redcherryberry Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Brentford can afford to sign players for decent wedge cos they will get a fair amount back for want away stars Jota & Andre Grey.

redcherryberry Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Maybe we could do a deal for all three? Jota will go on to bigger and better things than us Fordy while I personally wouldn't want us to pay 3+ million for Grey when we could of snapped him up for 500k when at Luton. Both Burt & SOD turned their noses up at him at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
