Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
I have no issues with him going for the money which lets face it is mouth-watering - it's the BS he comes out with justifying it. Just tell us its for the money and not to "further your footballing career"Ric_C wrote: ↑Mon Sep 08, 2025 10:34 amYeah i know this obviously, but if you aren't setup for life already after bring paid handsomely for many years then he's done something wrong. Just seems a shame he's wasting his prime years for a quick cash grab, but everyones built different I guess. He's certainly not going there for the experience is he?

Stanley Matthews was 50 when he finally called it a day. Still folk wanted to see the ultimate legend

Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
Anyone saying they wouldn’t take that deal in his circumstances are deluded.
The man stands to make crazy money for two years then come back and have 2/3 years in the Champ seeing his career out. Maybe he wants something that’s not a relegation battle or going back to the well for a promotion push again for a while.
Good luck to him, we’d all do the same.

If he's single again, he's going to have to go across the bridge to Bahrain for a spot of sport.

Are you really arrogant enough to presume you speak for everyone, and that the whole world shares your tawdry outlook on life.?Milltown1882 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 08, 2025 1:34 pmAnyone saying they wouldn’t take that deal in his circumstances are deluded.

Thankfully I know plenty of people totally unlike you.

Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
No I’m just realistic enough to see that athletes with a 10-15 year career shelf life will maximise their earnings to the best of their ability.
He was rejected by a number of clubs as a kid, Burnley included. So fair play to him for going to get the payday.

Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
I wouldn't worry about Fatboy. He's been popping up all summer to have a do at anything and everything related to Josh Brownhill. Never misses an opportunity to get himself involved.
Hopefully he'll draw it in a bit once they're on different continents.

That’s t’mortgage paid off lad. Nice.
Good luck Josh. Whatever most think and say, most of us would do the same with such an opportunity at your age.

Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
Fair play to him for finding what’s likely to be a huge contract. Many of us would do the same.
Hopefully he doesn’t come to regret it when he’s playing in front of a couple of thousand fans at Al-Shabab’s largely empty stadium.

Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
This sort of makes sense for him he isn’t likely to progress more I guess he is now typecasted as a top end championship lower end prem player maybe he was just sick of that and just wanted a fresh start with the money to boot.it comes down to what your motivation is professional pride, love of Football, money etc, I guess a lot of his is money, a lot of us are also driven by money so there is no shame in that. Good luck to him I say
Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
With the lighter balls and the thinner air conditions in Saudi Arabia he might now be able to beat the first man from a corner?

Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
Anyone know if he has taken the “rest is left unwritten” song with him?
Re: Bronwhill confirms departure
No they wouldn't. You obviously would but to say those that wouldn't are therefore deluded is incredibly narrow minded.Milltown1882 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 08, 2025 1:34 pmAnyone saying they wouldn’t take that deal in his circumstances are deluded.

The premise of what you're saying is that regardless of how rich you already are (and unless JB is incredibly stupid he's already extremely rich) to turn down even more riches, irrespective of how those riches are earned would be deluded. No other factors come into play. Its just more money = acceptance...no discussion.
