I could never understand us letting Tyrone Mears take freekicks when there were far better candidates on the pitch including Robbie Blake.

Robbie was one of the best takers of a free kick I've ever seen on the Turf.

The one against PNE at the Bee Hole was a stunner.

Yeah forgot about Wallace, when he signed I had the feeling he'd score whenever he stepped up, as time went on I never expected him to score. Matty Taylors got a cracking free kick, shame he rarely on the pitch to make it useful consistently apart from against Birmingham. Mears scored 1 I think? at home to Derby, he was abit crap like Trippier although Trippier had that Ronaldo style technique and hit them quite well, they just never went in.

Don't understand your point Vegas? You suggest we are getting played like what Lambert did?? It doesn't make sense?

I then suggested that we would possibly know his contractual requirements and you went on about signing a UTD regular, only to agree with a Boro fan later on that we would likely know what he wanted? I don't get it?

Also why would we go in for Ibra? We've already got plenty of players with long hair.

Can't see how this can be confirmed when he hasn't had a medical or agreed terms yet

If enough people post enough made up stuff... then I suppose by the law of averages, one piece of bullsh1t will turn out to be true.

I think that's how the logic works on here.

This deal is far from being confirmed. Fee agreed, that's all as it stands.

No offence exclaret hope it's right, but there was a poster who is on this thread who stated, that they had a reliable source that Brady was signing last week or the week before.
However I suspect, f you are an ex player you'll have better contacts than most on here. I hope you're right!

try and be honest - if you were a footballer and you had a choice between Burnley or West ham and the financial side of the deals were similar-where would you go?

Beginning to really dislike Boro. Jealous little weasel Karanka stalks Dyche. He's realised he's an inferior manager to him so just copies him. Hes even trying to play like us, but he doesn't have the quality. Kinda hope he takes them down. Blackburn styleeee

From that article - "The sticking point could be the fact that Middlesbrough and the Tigers are both battling to stay in the Premier League and, for that reason, City would prefer Snodgrass to join Burnley."

Cool. We're safe according to the Gazette- we can all relax now!
