https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/cundy-departs-the-robins/ Good signing is that. Just waiting on the Cundy Cross interview now.
Welcome Robbie. Seems we've beat off competition. And been in the pipeline a few weeks. As for the 2 yrs. Both parties must be happy.. Too short. Good player. Club get slated. Too long. Failure. Club get slated. The transfer market is never going to be the same since Bosman. Clauses in contracts. Leave on a free. Get a signing on fee.
If he has a good season he will be gone in 12 months as we will have to cash in when bigger clubs come calling. Some good opinions on him here..... https://www.otib.co.uk/index.php?/topic/217181-cundy-signs-for-barnsley/
Seems like a decent signing and good business for us. It clears the way towards cashing in on Michael Helik and regarding the short contract, there is always an option to review it in Jan or next summer if it suits both parties.
I honestly thought we'd get a photo of Cundy Cross roundabout before announcement, just like the Cole one lol Happy with this signing, probs be a good replacement for Helik if/when he leaves Striker still needed, hopefully him from Cheltenham
