Pat Bamford

[Finchley Seagull]

Am I right in thinking he hasn't scored at all since his last spell at 'boro?

That is right according to Wikipedia. That is a lot of money for a player who has played 22 games across three loan spells in last season and a half and failed to score a single goal!

The next Jon Stead.

Rumours Pat Bamford is unsettled at Misslesbrough and unhappy at a lack of first team football. Only wants to move to another PL club though so could be right up our street in the summer.

Short drive to Hartlepool if they can convince him of their ambitions

If he lowered his sights to match his ability he might be playing regular football.....in the Championship

Hope not. He hasn't been able to cut it at Palace, Norwich, Burnely or Boro at that level and there's been little to suggest he could with us either. Expect we'll sign a striker for next year whatever happens, but would suggest its highly likely to be one we haven't previously heard of from abroad.

Dad is his Agent. If you saw the article about his contract demands before agreeing to sign for Mboro you would not go near this individual.
Demanded that the payment of all his living costs and utility bills, Broadband, Sky are all paid for by Mboro in addition to his salary.
He is in it for the money not the football.

I read that as Utility Bills, Broadband, Sky and Marlboro as in a packet of fags.

( I am tired )

Can't help thinking he'll just be another one of the fêted Chelsea & Arsenal wunderkinds who bob around the Championship on loan forever then disappear into obscurity.

Another Pritchard by the sound of it.

Laughable. Barely good enough for the Championship these days. We will be aiming for much better IF we go up.

Should change to a defender ..Pulis would love him

 

[Weststander]

Reports suggesting Aston Villa are ready to end Pat Bamfords Burnley hell by taking him on loan from Chelsea for the rest of the season for a £2.5m fee if the player will agree to drop down to the Championship.

Just the sort of player who can help us get over the line if one of our key strikers gets injured, hope we're looking too.

No he isn’t. A PL flop, hence Villa’s interest.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Bamford is a striker who has way under-performed vs his potential. Even worse than Francis Jeffers. Remember him?

 

[Pavilionaire]

If you were to compile a list of players we should not touch with a barge pole then Bamford would be near the top of page 1.

2 1/2 years - 37 league matches, 1 goal.
