[Quicksilvera]

Boro in talks according to Keith Downie

 

[Caesium137]

Watmore, McNair and a mixed bag of walnuts and oranges left over from Christmas.

 

[Boro_Scally]

He's said we are showing the strongest interest out of the clubs linked.

Watmore, McNair and a mixed bag of walnuts and oranges left over from Christmas.

I'd rather keep Watmore.

 

[Jedi boro]

Is anyone else a little uneasy paying the mackems 10 mil for a glorified league one striker.

Or am I being too harsh.

I don’t think anyone would pay 10 for him

 

[Caesium137]

I'd rather keep Watmore.

I'm not against him staying, and he's the most Forss type player for a like for like substitute / replacement.

I just think the club must have serious misgivings / reservations about him (I assume injury fitness related) as we have signed getting on for 7/8 forwards to play ahead of him now and we're linked with another couple.

He's about as regular a scorer in this division as Akpom (a few minutes difference). He could be a great addition and the fee is just rumour.

And yet he keeps getting games. The new mustoe/hignett.

Is Watmore most likely to head to the exit to make space for A.N. Other? I would much rather trade in Muniz (who I really like too, but it isn't working out for anyone currently) and keep Watmore, unless we have to sell to buy?

Muniz I think is going if you read the noises from near him. Lots of talk of a recall from
Fulham.

Agree with ya Jed.
Our days of chucking £10M+ around are over.
Too much for a Division III player.
No space for big-time charlies here

yes it's much more likely to be Muniz who has sadly been a bit of a flop. Shame because the kid has talent and seems a nice popular guy who you want to do well.

Yes he's a 5 or 6mill striker tops. Maybe with promotion clauses to 9 or 10

 

[Nosmo-King]

And you know he is a “ big time Charlie”? Pathetic- truly pathetic

 

[Glover_elbow]

I hate to say it I really do but are we a big enough step up from Sunderland presently, we are neck and neck in the league for him to want to come to us.

 

[Wiseman_Vaughn]

I think we’ll get him with a player going the other way. Maybe paddy m.

Look at our track records over the last few decades, of course we're a step up.

 

[Willow]

Our wage budget will be a big enough step up.

 

[Caesium137]

Hopefully be registered in time to score the winner against them........
