Shane Duffy - it's a DONE DEAL!

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I've got to admit watching his horror show the other week I wasn't too keen but now he's signed and Hughton has said that he now gives us four senior options in central defence(thus suggesting no outgoings) I'm quite happy. Who knew, a football fan being fickle...

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Very much this. Although I feel its a shame for Goldson (Who I presume will miss out on a starting spot) because he really looked the business even at a young age. Hope it doesn't harm his development too much.

Goldson waited for his opportunity last season until Greer was injured. Goldson isn't ready yet for a full match. He will get his turn and then it's his shirt to lose. Good healthy competition.
If players can't deal with fighting for the shirt, they shouldn't be professionals.

 

[ATFC Seagull]

Great signing. Anyone unsure about this lad, I'd suggest they watch the Ireland v Italy game from the Euros.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I find it almost impossible to believe he scored intentionally. But then I watch those goals fly in and can't help wonder. I will give him the benefit of the doubt though.

To be honest, with the Venkys as owners, I'm inclined to think he did it to make sure he could get away.

 

[TSB]

No, he just flat out refused to play.

Yeah, you don't need to tell me that (!!!). Had he not been our player at the time, but instead someone we were considering purchasing, I'd have thought precisely the same about his potential signing.

 

[spence]

Seriously? It's such a crap comparison, I don't know if it's even worth responding.
You tell me, folks: Has Lewis ever intentionally scored own goals, then come out for the second half the only player not wearing a black armband, and finally been sent off for booting the ball angrily at an opposing player all? Just because he's trying to engineer a move away?

What looks to be our new signing was the laughing stock of the football world ONE WEEK AGO for those precise things.
There was a thread on here laughing at him and full of 'Wouldn't want him here'.

Yet I'm in the minority seemingly.
Alright. Whatever floats your boat.

Oh and Spence: Bruno was absolutely awful that season under Hyypia. Stephens was out injured for much of it.
Has no-one else wondered why we're not having to compete with our teams for his signature?

Edit: See he's signed. Wonderful. Boooooooooooooooooooooooo. Wanker Wanker Wanker etc.

Do you look like your avatar in real life? miserable fooker ?

 

[Pintos]

if he was sent off last week, when is his ban?

I can see where your coming from and it wasn't a good week to say the least and he hardly covered himself in glory. Just listened to CH interview which was insightful and he believes he will pick up the best players available no matter the attitude as this group we currently seems to be able to take care of itself and egos are knocked on the head quickly. He may of acted a tit and may of been shocking last week for Blackburn, but in turn he may show now what a good player he is for BHA and that's what really matters.

He did play well in that game Matt but then wasn't he the one who got sent off for the Griezmann foul?

 

[Cian]

if he was sent off last week, when is his ban?

Served already I believe.

 

[TSB]

Do you look like your avatar in real life? miserable fooker ?

Ha. Miserable. Yeah, ok. I'm the eternal optimist. Normally.
But Murray and Duffy in one window? Christ.

I'm hoping we'll sign Bradley Johnson and Jesus from Forest so we can build a first team of people I detest.

 

[spence]

Lovely signing delighted with this.

Well done BHA.

 

[martin tyler]

if he was sent off last week, when is his ban?

League cup mid week if Blackburn were still in it then.

 

[Postman Pat]

if he was sent off last week, when is his ban?

Already spent, missed the Burton game, back for Crewe game in midweek. Can play tomorrow - confirmed by club.

 

[dazzer6666]

if he was sent off last week, when is his ban?

Didn't play in Rovers 2-2 draw on Saturday v Burton, 1 game ban for 2 yellows already served.

 

[Grombleton]

Ha. Miserable. Yeah, ok. I'm the eternal optimist. Normally.
But Murray and Duffy in one window? Christ.

Hughton will resign and we'll get Karl Robinson in

Now you're just contradicting yourself.

You attest to him being a bad player because of his recent own goals and being a 'laughing stock', and at the same time suggest he stuck them past his own keeper on purpose to force a move.

So which is it, bad attitude or bad player?

 

[Albion my Albion]

Jesus from Forest so we can build a first team of people I detest.

You'd like to crucify him?

Err. Have another read and show me where I said he was a bad player.
You're not captain of your debating team are you, Nixonator?
