Personally, I'd not be worried about the last one. But if the COGba deal is our methodology, then the fire sale will continue. Ben saying: "We're more excited about Paul Digby than we were about John Stones" can be likened to Danny saying "He's scored fifteen goals in a relegated side!" Get ready!
I think Danny was just being realistic about the fact that his scoring record was bound to attract interest, we'd probably have struggled to keep him even if we'd have stayed up. No-one needed to put him in the shop window, clubs will have been fully aware of him. I think Steele has already said he wants to stay at Barnsley rather than sit on the bench in the Championship, Cranie wouldn't be a huge loss, he's a good player but very replaceable, not sure why there would be any interest in Digby he's not done anything.
You were the one a short while back claiming O'Grady was a poor player and we should get shut. You said the same about Cranie. Then you demanded Danny have a total clear out of all the playing staff and start afresh this Summer. It appears you're getting exactly what you wanted.
You're right feller, but I think I excepted Steele and Digby from that. I do think that 500K for COG is a cracking bit of business, and I'd let Cranie go on a 'free'. But if Lukey or Diggers go, it will show we are building nothing..... except a side for League Two!
With Martin Wood getting in the side ahead of Digby I have to wonder whether Danny rates him at all, I know he's had injuries and Flicker claimed he'd had a lobotomy but he has been available and unused for a good portion of the season.
Totally agree, orsen. It goes with the territory! I'm feeling quite happy & relaxed as we're going away on holiday to the Scottish Highands on Saturday and will be celebrating our 30th Wedding Anniversary whilst up there.
Yeah, because nobody had heard of COG until Danny pointed out how many goals he'd scored. What the **** is this *****?
Theres a difference between being aware of him and knowing he is under contract and being told he is available for sale though isnt there?
That's some achievement in this day and age, JLWBL. Congratulations to you both and I hope you have a very good time up there. I'd be having a wee dram, too!
Let's be serious, no ones paying money for Digby at this moment in time. As it stands he appears to be made of glass. He needs to put together a run of games before scouts will even take notice
