Quinn31 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 If Martinez doesn't fancy him then I hope we sell him for whatever we can get. Don't want to loan him out until his contract runs out. Only has this season left on his contract I believe, so we wouldn't get much for him. I wonder if there would be a buyer? That being said, if we can't find a buyer, I'd rather let him go out on loan rather than sit the bench here all season. He's 22, time he gets on with his career.

Quinn31 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 You're right, we wouldn't get much, but anything a better than nothing! If we could get a small fee for Duffy, we could combine that money with the Adam Forshaw money and bring in another 19 year old goalkeeper!

efc1111 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Should be a good move for him. Regular football is what he needs at this stage of his career. Looks like Roberto is thinning down the fringes of the squad a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Gone to Blackburn Rovers for £1.5m Great stuff! Sad to be proven correct that he'd never make it here. Good luck to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, real shame as we've been in on it from the start and had the family connection; would've been a great story but the very best of luck to him. Hope he has a great career.

EFC-Paul Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Shame really as I had hoped he'd prove me wrong but at 22 and four or five years here he was obviously not up to it at this level and it's a great move for him Best of luck!!

thoward18 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Well done by Martinez getting something for Duffy while he could. Shame it didn't work out, but that's the nature of the academy; not everyone makes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thoward18 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Yep it's also there to make money as well! Yup. If a player can't make the squad, then the next best thing is to get some sort of compensation for the time and effort the academy coaches put into the player.

Toffee_in_LA Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Wonder if him being sold plus a couple of our academy players being loaned out means that we'll get another loan signing. I hope that's the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenose123 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 I liked Duffy, thought he never really got the chance at Everton. A couple of seasons ago he looked decent. Let's see how he gets on at Blackburn. Good luck to him bluenosetoffee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J*A*C*K*E*L*Z Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Shocked how much we got for him!! Think martinez is more of a browning fan and so am i what i have seen of him.

msloan78 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Good luck to the lad.

cn174 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 It seems he was well liked at Everton so you think he'll be worth the 'expense' in the Championship? Whilst watching our defence go to pieces every time Wolves attacked today, any help we can get would be appreciated! I'm just quite happy that we are gonna sign anyone for to dispel the myth that we cant sign anyone unless we sell Rhodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple of league games he came in for he did really well and people were disappointed when he lost his place because he did nothing to deserve it. Think he'll be great for you.
