Re: Ben Gibson

[jojomk1]

Aden Flint having medical at Boro and fee already agreed with Bristol City so maybe some potential for a bid
Gibson will cost a lot of money but far more experience at our level than the likes of Worrall
Also, naturally left sided whereas Dawson is right

[KRBFC]

Gibson is also considerably better than the pair of them

[jojomk1]

The fee quoted for Flint is only £7m so would have been a good understudy for us at that price

Yeah we were beaten to the punch by Boro it seems, if the links to him are true of course.

I doubt we were beaten to any punch, no interest in him as far as I'm aware.

WBA were rumoured to be interested in him, which could add another layer of difficulty to signing Dawson. One of their targets signing for another club won't make things easier for them and it could firm up their resolve to keep Dawson.

With the departures of Evans, Gabr and Mc Cauley they only have Dawson and Hegazy left on their books for the centre back slot.

Providing that Hegazy does have a release clause, and clubs are interested in him, they could find themselves with no centre backs at all if they allow Dawson to leave and Hegazy follows.

I just saw we were linked with him along with a host of other clubs in the Bristol Post, zero idea how true the link was.

Pulis in tall goal scoring centre half shocker, hold the back page.

As for understudy? I doubt that at his age.

If we can get Gibson at 20m though I'd be making a move asap.

[SGr]

Would take Gibson. Left footed centre halves are rare - eventual successor to Mee.

I once tipped off the club about Flint when he was at Swindon, I was led to believe from someone at Swindon that Burnley were looking too - he went down in my estimations by the way he left Town though, he did a local spread in the Bristol press being very disrespectful to Swindon and his former team mates.

Aden Flint is too slow to play at Premiership level.Kev Long must be around the £15m mark now as an experienced cb if we decided to cash him in.

[Lancasterclaret]

If he's available, you'd think we'd be in for him.

Not sure that he's available though

[Long Time Lurker]

Even if he is available I suspect he would probably be outside our price range

I just made another one with a few lines and a DIAGRAM.

My 199th post was an epic.

Having nudged over the 200 mark I've decided to branch out and experiment with more tactical diversity in my posting.

[jlup1980]

Gibson would be amazing for one reason... Twitter. The Boro fans would be in meltdown if little old Burnley signed him!!

[ClaretTony]

Flint transfer been confirmed this morning
