BS3City Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Surely if we sell Flint for big money we're gonna be quoted big money for a replacement, as clubs will know we have funds. It therefore might make sense to buy the replacement first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. Think it's more likely Magnússon will be off personally with the other 3 competing for 2 spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be happy with this Totally agree, apart from the odd occasion I thought he was solid for us. Good signing, clearly means on our CB's is off. If it's Aden and it's a move to a 'bigger' club with associated wages he goes with my blessing - for what that is worth! He has been fantastic for us.

Saunders87 Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 I know he said he won't play 3 at the back but we now the players to play 3 at the back. Ripley . Wright Flint Baker Pisano.

shelts Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 A great signing. Good replacement for Flint, off to Villa, not like for like and finally a player who likes a bit of the old fashioned dark arts, old school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tears in rain Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 If this happens it means Wright goes to his natural RCB and Baker and Mags battle for the LCB role. Assuming Flint is leaving with all the rumours circling around. It could be worse to be fair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be spouting positive club guff, which doesn't help us fans. He'd have to be employed as a press officer or similar which isn't going to happen. Problem we have in Bristol is our local press is so dire we're now reliant on getting our info from a freelancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockleazeRed Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 It's interesting how much Stockhausen's credibility has risen after leaving the post. The general reaction to his rumours are now "this has a chance" as opposed to "that's not happening" as it was before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
