Can't say I recall McNeil scoring a free kick, or is it just for corners and deliveries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not scoring as such - his delivery is very good from corners and free-kicks though and I think that was a big draw when we signed him.

RuffRob Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 I would fancy Garner in our squad over Gilmour. He's just a bigger lad in the midefield. I don't think you can really lose on such a highly regarded player at the age he is at. Goodison Glory, Bailey and StevO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaidharper Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 Wonder why Forest didn't go in for him when he did so well there last year? Signed Lewis O'Brien instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 I would be very happy with this - A player who was given much plaudits for dragging Forest up the table and to ultimate promotion last season - and at just 21 years old £15M in todays market seems a good deal. Got my fingers crossed on getting this local lad in the squad. Fosse Captain 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Apparently there will be a buy back clause in the contract for Utd. I thought £15m was a very good deal, so not surprised there is a catch. A lot of pundits are surprised Utd are even allowing a sale. I will worry about a buy back when he starts bossing the midfield for us!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be wishful thinking but would also hope we’d be able to re-negotiate and ‘buy it out’ too if things go well. Utd seem to only want box office players, so unlikely they’d have him back even if he does do well here. I could be talking utter bollox tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the process I'd made up in my mind anyway. My understanding was that it’s in the contract already that if they pay the buyout they get the player back. Perhaps it just depends on the situation but in Gerry D’s case he wouldn’t have wanted to leave. Barcelona just turned around and sold him permanently I believe. Good deals to do for rich clubs.
