getting messy now. Wonder if he was still talking to other suiters and its pssed the french off. Didnt Gibbo pull the plug on someone before for the same reason?

Rumours are Lens are narked as Chuba/agent speaking to Ajax.....and pulled out of deal

Hopefully Ajax press on otherwise that could be us scuppered having to accept a lower offer

 

[Alwaysaborolad]

Cannot blame them if reports are true, agreed deal with us, then Ajax bid accepted, so they have walked away..
Good for them if true, more teams should do the same when agents and players are trying it on!!!

I take it nothing was signed. Bleeding agents and money.

I wasn't exepecting that. I hope he doesn't end up at Sheff U

 

[allied_assault]

Does this mean Choobs stays with us!

 

[BoroMad87]

All good then we keep Chuba!

Either he’s asked for too much or they’re narked him and his agent are speaking with other clubs. Get the feeling his agent is playing a game to get him as much as possible.

I think if he has the choice he’d go to Sheff Utd, but the longer this drags on it’s just screwing us more.

Should’ve been sorted ages ago!

We cannot afford to keep him, if he leaves next year for nothing.
Also we don't want a potential sulking player amongst the group.

It’s already disrupted us enough!

Really didn't want him to go from one Yorkshire(ish) team to another

Can’t see Chuba sulking
Would love to get us promoted wouldn’t he?

Typical Middlesbrough.

Can't even sell their star player at below market value.

Gibson out etc etc



(thought I'd save someone the job when they get in from the pub )

 

[diggerman]

They obviously didn't think he was properly focused

He will do nothing for them!! Hope he does, there style of football is horrific
