brady going nowhere

[Barking Mad Barclay Boy 13]

Brady will still be at the club by the end of the transfer window if we do not get a left back in. And its looking highly unlikely we will now with the 2 top targets not wanting to come here. Unless we pluck one out of the air which will be from the lower leagues at best now then brady will still be a city player despite the money being offered for him.

[Move Klose 303]

He''ll be gone. Will be at Burnley without a doubt. He won''t play tomorrow. He will be sold and we will sign a left back on loan. Cameron Borthwick-jackson from united is my prediction.

[Cantiaci Canary 610]

Meredith?

If Brady stays its not the end of the world. Good player who can perform.

Indeed, but the big question is will he?

[Jim Smith 2,610]

He absolutely must not be allowed to leave unless we have one, possibly two left sided players in the bag. Anything less will be shambolic amateurism.

[BroadstairsR 2,273]

I would have thought it could be in his best interests in the long run to stay put for the time being.

A good second half to the season in the yellow and he will likely attract better suitors than the dog-end/relegation threatened clubs that are reported to have shown interest thus far.

He can take his time in the Summer and get the best deal/club for himself.

It is not beyond the bounds of possibility that the Club gains as well. We might get better bids than those reported recently.

Both gain. The Club gains both ways.

We might even go up ourselves via a late surge into the play-offs (hic).

I''d like to keep hold of him at this junction. There''s no reason, if Neil wants to play 3 at the back with WB''s, that Brady can''t be a wing-back.

[Move Klose 303]

I doubt we will see 3 at the back again this season.

[Guest]

If the right money is offered he will go won''t he. And if we can bring in another left back then so be it. Tierney did a pretty good job when he turned up so it is possible to unearth someone.

It appears to me that the club have obviously decided on Que Sera for this season.

If we somehow do make it to the playoffs they will claim success, if we somehow mange to win the playoff final, they will claim it was spelt out at the AGM.

And if we don''t go up they will say we couldn''t bring the right players in and we have spent a season regrouping.

Catch 22 we can not sign another LB LM until we have banked the Brady money ,

So if we sell then our targets fall through we are stuffed

[Van wink 2,994]

What about the money from Swansea?

[Coq au vin 0]

Could have bee projected for the future in player wages? Not that I pretend to know anything about club finances - just a thought

[norfolkngood 1,174]

Swansea money just means we do not have to sell

so in other words that was needed to plug a hole in the finances not to reinvest that money is not in pot now !

[quote user="norfolkngood"]Catch 22 we can not sign another LB LM until we have banked the Brady money ,

Saw him in the city today, wearing a blue tracksuit. Read into that what you will.

[Guest]

What City would be seen dead wearing a blue track suit?

Reported in Irish examiner today, done deal 3 and half year contract , Burnley 12m. Personal terms agreed. Read it in actual newspaper so can''t give link. Search Irish examiner, soccer, Robbie Brady and you should get the article.

[Cantiaci Canary 610]

That''ll give us enough to buy Meredith and divert the rest to cushioning relegation.

[Van wink 2,994]

Let''s hope it''s not too late.

Perish the thought we get all that dosh and can''t buy anyone, or even worse blow it on a last minute dud.

I use photobucket.I wonder how they got the story, not seeing it reported anywhere else.

[Van wink 2,994]

Fully accept your point wc but why isn''t there some story on the net? Odd?

[wcorkcanary 4,784]

No idea why not on net, am home now, read it in chippy. there may be some reduction of content on free view on net as they do have subs for readers abroad. Will have a look from this end and see if more info.

[Indy 3,471]

Smorty pants, that''s superb.........come on Morty change it! You know you want to!

[wcorkcanary 4,784]

Nope, Nowt. If anyone clever wants to pm me an actual email address then i can attach photo to them and they can upload for all to see. Article said deal to be completed today? everything else agreed .

Fair enough but made me chuckle on this fine Friday night! Might be the beer!

[wcorkcanary 4,784]

Having a Staropramen or two meself now to wash down the Haddock n Chips. Even checked news regurgitator Newsnow and no mention of it there either.

Maybe journalist went off half cocked, and it aint true. They printed it though.
