Leveller Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 It’s difficult to be disappointed about not signing someone I’d never heard of a couple of weeks ago. 10 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you see it that way? It's obvious some people on the forum are able to obtain knowledge regarding the club or football in general, that others aren't. Surely it's nice that people are willing to share? It makes for an interesting forum and sometimes puts meat on the bones of a story. If the signing wasn't announced today as some were thinking...then people would be asking why and coming to all sorts of conclusions. Now we know it's down to Derby intervening. I find it weird that some people think this is narcissistic. Tbh...it makes those who think that way, seem jealous that they aren't privacy to any information. All a bit playground. As for not all info being divulged...I understand that. It's obvious media and press read this forum and use info in their articles. So some things need not to be made public. 23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posters who ITL, or even those with just a little bit of genuine knowledge are always appreciated. It’s the pure attention seekers who are frustrating, but they are usually recognisable quite early and easily. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robinforlife2 Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 If this falls through and Bryan hasn't got his "abroad" move, do you think we may end up going back to Bryan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 Surely all Roberts is doing, is what what any normal person would do when presented with a second option…and that’s at least have a think about it, speak to agent, family, trusted ones etc. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete O’Rourke tends to be wholly accurate when announcing a deal is done with us and those ITK - not just on here - that have almost never put a foot wrong have stated the deal would be announced today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 1 hour ago, Steve Watts said: Definitely not the case. The only reason it's free is because Brighton didn't offer him a new and improved deal by whatever the deadline was. Just like us with Liam Rosenior. It could prove to be a decision they regret in the future regardless of where he ends up. Yes I realise why he's on a free, it just seems unnecessarily profligate to give him away as Brighton seem such a well run club these days. I was just wondering if there was a reason for it.

Because if the interest comes to naught, he signs and they are then on the hook for a contract for a player they have no intention of giving game time to. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ska Junkie Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 (edited) I actually appreciate nit bits from those ITK. In the Davison days, I was told genuine info from a friend that many know on here. Nowadays, I know NADA so enjoy the posts from those that DO know so please keep sharing. Those that seek attention on the other hand, get a life! This lad knows what he is walking into at Derby so why not speak to them as well? He has to check his options but, I believe, Derby have a max salary they can pay at the mo which we could beat comfortably. All down to the lad and where he feels is best for him I guess.
