Syrette Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I've got a horrible feeling we'll cave in and sell him on too cheaply. I'm not expecting vast sums any more (I originally would have taken £14m+ and not a penny less, but that was before his transfer request etc). Either way, just move on, the man is leaving us when we need our loyal players the most. I hope he enjoys his money at Man City. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Doesn't this put us in an even weaker position? It says to City that while we won't accept there offer at the moment the deal will have to happen eventually.. Instead we should be telling City and Given that he won't be leaving unless we get the fee we're after, that they have 24 hours to make the right offer or he's staying until the summer.

This is what i was thinking. City can now go right up to the deadline if they want, leaving us up shit creek. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the flip side, we could have agreed a fee with a club for someone and want to try and get things moving quickly? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Quichà Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 It will be a dark dark day if Shay does leave. I cant blame him one bit though he's given everything to this club and not really seen any reward. He is top class and he's been our only saving grace one too many times.

Ronaldo Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 In all honesty whilst Given is a good keeper in terms of ability, he'll always be a wrong fit for a defence needing organisation and authority. See ya Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the £50,000 a week and being treat like a fucking king you mean. I can't blame him for eventually wanting to leave, but I definitely blame him for the way he's gone about it. Which could end up costing this club a great deal of money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mofo Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I cant blame him one bit though Why couldn't he have waited till the Summer? They might have signed another Keeper by then. Best of luck to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredbob Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Five Live just said the same. Been given permission to talk, not yet agreed a fee. This could be a good move for us - if Man City agree with Shay then they know they have there player, other than the price and with there number 1 target on board im sure they'll succumb to a decent compromise.

Guest rosstoon Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I hope he gets injured in his 1st game. Dont get me wrong I love(d) Given, He is just showing no ambition and is only interested in the Money. He should hold out and move to a club who he can further his career with for example Arsenal a team who may win sumting in the coming years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 The sooner Given, Zog and Owen are out of the club the better for me, they are poisoning the atmosphere with their long faces. If it clears the way for enthusiastic replacements we'll be better for it in our current situation at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
