Glenn Murray signs until June 2019

[spence]

He certainly would be if we get promoted.

As i have already pointed out he is under contract until the end of the season anyway.

 

[Whoislloydy]

If we failed to go up we would have a much bigger problem than just Murray.

Exactly, so buy him now and we have one less problem if it comes to it.

Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

If we go up we could loan him to a Championship club like Palace for a £3m fee

Hee hee, I like your style.

No but i go to bed banging my head against the wall with posters like you

True enough. The team would need to be rebuilt, and it could mean a season or two of mid table obscurity before we find our feet again. Plus of course we could be looked upon as serial bottlers by the rest of the football world.

It would be goodbye Dunk,Stephens,Knocky and god knows who else. We have to go up this season or we are screwed.

For a bit of perspective, Sky Sports are also reporting that Fulham are trying to persuade the (terrible) Chris Martin to join on a permanent deal either now or in the summer for a fee of 9 MILLION POUNDS

Thought Martin signed a new deal with Derby ?

Fulham have an option to buy him for £9m if all parties agree

Who would I want GM at 33 years old for £3m or Chris Martin at 29 years old for £9m without a doubt it would be Glenn.

 

[Madafwo]

The main thing is come April he won't be worrying about where he's going to be playing next season so he can concentrate on WINNING THE ****ING LEAGUE.

But now he isn't playing for a contract so could do an Adebayor and completely give up!

OH NOES!

Murray for 3m, or Martin for 9m, who would you prefer?

I already know the answer.

 

[Pump3ster]

I think the idea of signing Murray permanently makes sense but three million sounds like typical Sky Sports inflation (See the aforementioned Martin to Fulham speculation). I would prefer to spend that, substantial for us, fee on a striker who can prove a threat to Hemed or Baldock as back up or partner, with Murray as number one striker, (Akpom if brought in would be backup to all of them and an option out wide). Johnny Russell being a good option for that role.

 

[GreersElbow]

Jesus, there's shitposting to provoke a response, then there's shitposting by people who believe their own tripe.

 

[peterward]

18 months with a one year enforceable option ( like we had with Vicente) should do nicely.

 

[Frutos]

Naylor on Twitter: Consolidation of the strike force, via an addition and Murray signed permanently, would be the missing piece in the promotion jigsaw. #bhafc

[HantsSeagull]

there is no way we will be paying £3m upfront. Bournemouth paid that two years ago. That 3m will be dependent on all sorts of things - promotion, goals scored, penalties conceded, etc

 

[clippedgull]

If this completes one thing it will be is 'undisclosed' fee! Our club doesn't do numbers!

I thought Bournemouth paid £4M, but could be wrong.
