Johnny Byrne

" If he doesn't want to show loyalty & accept our offer, let him go. He's a good player but at the end of the day he's a FULL BACK."

 

[portslade seagull]

Hoyte was woeful today... he can't replace him please

 

[Whitterz]

Well said Byrne. Its not as if hes a 25 a season goalscorer. Good fall backs are plentiful.

 

[astevens76]

unbelievable

 

[Ernest]

That's WHAT happens when YOU allow FOREIGNERS to play for us

 

[Scotty Mac]

might give a reprieve for whing

 

[The Grockle]

might give a reprieve for whing

I didn't feel too bad about him not signing until you said that. SAKE

 

[R. Slicker]

might give a reprieve for whing

Oh Thanks, thats cheered me up NO end.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

We didn't think McNulty was replaceable...he was. Poyet has waved a few magic wands this season and I'm confident he will do again. As I said, we always have the last laugh over Pardew, regardless of our status at the time. And I think we will again, whether that means beating Saints to promotion or Calderon being nowhere near as good for them as he was for us.

Chin up people, Gus has AGES to find a suitably flair replacement. Or maybe even McNulty will be it. Have a little faith.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

from calderon to whing

Gus said f*** off.

 

[itszamora]

What a c*nt.

 

[Techno]

Bollocks. Did not see that coming.

Lets hope we do them again next season.

 

[Silkster365]

Remember - Gus found Calderon himself and brought him here. I've no doubt at all that he will find someone of equal calibre

 

[BensGrandad]

To quote Ninja Elephant on the phone in ' we already have a good right back out on loan' Assuming he is saying that about Whing. What hope have we with people coming up with suggestions like that Hoyte is twice the player Whing is and Calderon is even better. Our only hope is for Gus and his scouting staff to unearth another gem who is out of contract in June as they did with Calderon.

Gus has confirmed the contract offer was on the table until last night and has been withdrawn.

 

[New Carpet?]

Am I right to be concerned that we may not be able to attract that high a quality a player to us for next season after all?

Or is it just a one-off bit of bad luck that filthy-rich Southampton have given Calderon a ludicrous offer that he simply couldn't refuse?

 

[Bluejuice]

Radio says Gus withdrew the offer as it was UNACCEPTABLE Calderon would show him such disrespect by pimping himself elsewhere when it was us who showed faith in him and resurrected his career.

Good on Gus.

We don't need money grabbing mercenaries here

 

[saafend_seagull]

Well that proves we have less £ than Soton.

Slightly odd if true
