Nixon saying they are close to signing a RB

Do we get Lansbury in exchange?

randomclaret2 · Post by **randomclaret2** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 3:47 pm

That rules Darikwa out then...

Is that Knotts Forrest ?

If we get anywhere near our money back (£600k reported at Chesterfield's end, plus the add-on we paid upon promotion), we've played a blinder.

Call me bitter but I say we should play hardball for him with Forest, just so they know how it feels

claretdom · Post by **claretdom** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 3:54 pm

If it was us and Forest I would sell him Derby for less

Nottingham born. This is the move for him but as above, sell him to Derby just to p1ss them off.

We've paid an add on this summer for staying up.

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 9:52 pm

pretty disappointed with this.

I liked Darikwa, always thought he was exciting.
Oh well. In Dyche we trust

roamingclaret · Post by **roamingclaret** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 9:58 pm

Same here...whatever people think of his 'defensive qualities' he has alot of positive attributes that, after a good start, were never developed...ie his ability to go forward, take men on & beat them

Think you needed to do the voice, Ian.

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 10:15 pm

I know it's moaning again, but I'm starting to get concerned about our lack of exciting players.
I honestly think there is one player in our squad that actually gets the pulse rating (Defour).

South West Claret. · Post by **South West Claret.** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 10:29 pm

I know what your saying NC but i'm afraid at this level it has to safety first with "excitement" coming way down the list.

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Tue Jul 25, 2017 10:34 pm

No I fully appreciate that.
I just hope we can build on the solid foundations we are making.

My pulse was racing when we comfortably stayed up last season.

Gudmundsson I would class as an exciting player. He's got pace, skill and isn't averse to taking a man on. Keep him fit and he'll do well this year.

Brady has a great delivery on him. He'll make any set piece more exciting.

claretdom · Post by **claretdom** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 4:23 pm

Imagine moaning at almost every signing we make and then moaning at selling to Darikwa while getting money for him

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 4:24 pm

I guess that finally brings to an end some people's dream of him playing right wing. Phew.

Even with only one exciting player in the team who spent a lot of time on the bench.Stop panicking Newcastle Claret.

Confirmed.

3putt · Post by **3putt** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 10:30 pm

Good luck to him. Hope he gets a proper chance to develop his career.

A skillful player with a lot of ability in my opinion. Certainly has the potential to be a good Championship player.

Cleveleys_claret · Post by **Cleveleys_claret** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 10:50 pm

Was not going to dislodge Lowton sadly. Also I think there is a good player in there but with the way we play and being on back foot so much I think it would be hard for a player like him to come in for a game or two and settle straight in and make an impact. Bardsley is a player who can come in, cover well and make the switch seamless.

Good luck to the lad and like meantioned above would be nice if we had a buyback clause though I doubt it, but should have a sell on fee.

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Wed Jul 26, 2017 11:37 pm

Never let us down. Good player who had more good attributes than bad. Shows how far we have come (and how little our fans have changed) when a player like Darikwa gets slaughtered.

Top Claret · Post by **Top Claret** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 9:26 am

On sky news this morning,that he has signed for Forest

randomclaret2 · Post by **randomclaret2** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 11:20 am

Boden suggesting the initial fee for Darikwa is £2million !

Good business but sad to see him go.

Two million what? Not pounds, surely.

Top Claret · Post by **Top Claret** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 12:39 pm

Good business for us and a good move for him. He was never good enough for us, but now has the chance to make his mark at a below average championship club

billyhamilton82 · Post by **billyhamilton82** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 1:31 pm

This deal has as a bit of the Wayne Thomas's about it if true.

IN : Bardsley £750k (http://www.stokecityfc.com/news/teens-p ... y-decision" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

OUT : Darikwa £2 million

The added bonus is we also get some of Boro's Britt money

Braindead · Post by **Braindead** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 3:11 pm

Not sad to see him go, had pace but was defensively suspect to say the least.
Lower mid table Championship is his level so wish him well but i for one am glad he is no longer cover for Lowton.

ewanrob · Post by **ewanrob** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 3:30 pm

Good luck to him, not done bad for a bench warmer...a decent share of knocking on 15milllion in bonuses for promotion and staying up.

Colburn_Claret · Post by **Colburn_Claret** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 6:15 pm

I'm sad to see him go, I really thought he had a big future in front of him. Sadly if he has its with somebody else.
Good luck Tendy, I hope you shine.

LDNBFC87 · Post by **LDNBFC87** » Thu Jul 27, 2017 6:19 pm

I reckon Darikwa will come good. Unfortunately, he doesn't suit how we want to play football at this moment in time.

Good luck to the lad.
