Guest av1 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Regarding Terry, i think if it is the case Bruce has planned this all along then it's not something that is going to go down well with the owners. The fact Terry wasn't resigned weeks ago suggest the board were not keen on the idea due to age/wages etc. Given the fact we don't have a defence, they now might be forced until a U turn on that given Bruce's failure to resolve the issue (i can't even recall being linked to a CB before the last day of the loan wundow). So whislt Bruce may get his way in the short term, i doubt very much the owners will be happy that they've been played. This is course is all conjecture of course based on the assumption that this is something Bruce played on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 re Caulker - Leeds, Celtic and Trabzonspor all linked. You'd think we'd be linked given the very obvious need for personnel in that area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really think he's shite, i just think he's had severe personal issues off the pitch gambling/alcohol addiction, depression trouble with the police e.t.c which really screwed with his development. He would also be a short term option as he wouldn't be good enough for the premier league should we get there.

Certainly not the defender we want to be seal the leaks in our defence. He has had a few big problems, linked to various mental health/addiction issues. It is suggested he has recovered well. He was a talented kid, I hope someone gives him a chance, it is a gamble but a cheap one now . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say there's too much hope/wishful thinking clouding reality/facts! The JT voting thing is apparently fake and the Grealish picture is just a flashback post - it doesn't have anything cryptic in it. Add the fact there are no real stories, we still have to be wary of FFP and the 26 shirt is gone I'd be confident in saying this isn't happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if we need someone to save our season it's not a 37 yr old defender one a 1 year contract. John Terry or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoof hearted Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 If Terry is re-signed then it surely has to be on a pay as you play contract with the caveat of a bonus on promotion? We deserve everything we get if he's on £40-£60k a week and it goes tits up. I'd welcome him back because an ageing John Terry at the heart of our defence is 1000 times better than an ageing Miles Jedinak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might not be an ideal situation but with the window closed it's possibly the best we can make out of a shitty situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saving our season is acheived by sacking Bruce and bringing in a new manager. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
