Don’t speak too West Brom fans about him, from what I’ve seen on Twitter a lot aren’t overly complimentary about him. “Okay as a back up” I’ve seen a few times, so for someone we are expecting too come in to the first team that isn’t promising.

Not really an argument that is it? Quite a patronising comment too. Some of things you say at times mate aren’t consistent with living in the “real world” that’s for sure.

Going from Raya and Leutweiler too Walton and Eastwood. Hardly an improvement.

Welcome back Chaddy ??

Please god no, I really don’t want Carson.

Can you give the name by private message then? If the deal happens then your credibility will be at an all time high ? put your neck on the chopping board matey. Plus you may as well just put it on here, I’ve never heard of a transfer deal not happen due too someone posting about it on a bloody messageboard ?

It’s Jack Ruddy that one, not John.

“Otherwise you have too pay” a post earlier you said you’d have liked Cahill or Vermaelen on a free? They might be free but you think there would ever be a 1% chance of signing either of those two with the wages they’d want? They’d cost a shit tonne over a year or two years. Not a bloody chance. Adrian on the other hand, probably slightly more chance than 1%. But Cahill or Vermaelen? Laughable ?

That is grim. ?

I was thinking the same. Just been on Twitter and haven’t seen anything too suggest that @Fraserkirky?

Get this lad in as well as another defender, then one or maybe two goalkeepers and we’re sorted. Promotion confirmed???

Is he?

Paddy Power love a bit of publicity, what’s the betting the kit will be different too that in reality?

Wasn’t getting personal, only called you big man because I presumed you named yourself Tormund after Tormund Giantsbane from Game Of Thrones. If not and it’s your actual name then I’m jealous.

Clearly a joke. Lost on you big man.

I hope you’re right mate

I’d rather bring Peter Enckleman out of retirement than bring Joe Hart in.

Have we not already spent more than the Raya money on Gallagher though?

Not sure I want too see that at Ewood this season if I’m honest..

Looking at that I’d take that. 5 million for Gallagher is way too much but if it doesn’t stop us bringing in a decent centre half and goalkeeper then so be it. Ruddy and Tuanzebe would be unreal signings. More chance of Ruddy than Tuanzebe though for me.

Decent centre half, a Boro boy I wouldn’t mind here. Work that North East charm Tony.

We also missed out on David Nugent, going back too Preston. 34 years old and is a good pal of Stewart Downing, Mogga is gutted he couldn’t bring another ex Boro boy back. Gallagher will have too do

Well if it’s based on promotion then we won’t be paying it all ? this current squad isn’t good enough yet.

But playing on the right of a front three regardless, at some point you will be stuck on the wing having to run at and beat people, we saw it with Brereton last season. That is not Gallaghers game just as it clearly isn’t Brereton’s.

Mane Firmino and Salah all interchange and are good enough too do it. Mane can run at people and take them on as well as being able to cross, but also he can cut inside and play central very well. Sam Gallagher is not Sadio Mane.
