TRO Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 sometimes we are able to nick players like McGinn and other times circumstances conspire against us and we have to pay through the nose....I am trying to divorce my thoughts from the fee. I am delighted he is coming home to us. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrone knows he won’t be captain, but he’ll still be a leader on the pitch as he was this year. If you want to say we lost, say we lost. As far as I’m concerned, we Won. It certainly felt like we won the way we were all celebrating at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 3 hours ago, villan-scott said: Injury prone or just unlucky with injury? I’d say the latter. 2 serious injuries, but other than that he’s not had niggly little injuries you’d associate with ‘injury prone’ players. It’s his time to shine in the Prem with us now. Good business IMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ciggiesnbeer Posted July 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2019 Also worth noting if it wasnt for Tyrone we wouldnt be in the position to pay PL transfer fees at all. We would be looking to sell our good players as we languished in the Championship another season. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the half a season that he has been instrumental in getting an historical club like ours promoted......We are a juggernaut, with high expectations, that is sometimes cumbersome to manage.....He has played a major part in us securing a170 million windfall ,with an opportunity if we stay up for an additional £130 million. He is worth it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We either sign him for this amount or we don't. Its really as simple as that. It's something called respect. More frequently forgotten in place of in the pursuit of money it would seem. I'm not under any false illusion they owe us any favors. But as I outlined previously, the practicalities behind Mings' situation should have the most significant influence on his price tag, and therefore lower it. I said earlier in the thread Bournemouth had the leverage on us in this deal, so I think I'm aware of the reasoning for the fee being as it is. It's entirely up to Bournemouth what they choose to do with a player under contract, however I'm sure Mings' would appreciate reciprocal professionalism from Bournemouth. Let him progress his career. Agree a fee that's in the interest of both clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its times like this that it is prudent to have a CEO in place for sometime......I hope Christian Purslow has a very active memory, when doing business with Bournemouth in the future?

sne Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Once again we are paying far to much, but as long as we are not relegated it probably wont matter to much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
