Kanj Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 2 hours ago, TheBrownBottle said: Ashworth and Howe are in charge of our transfer strategy. I’ll trust their judgement 100%, while acknowledging 100% success rate is likely impossible. Just be thankful that they’re in charge of it, not those who went before … https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4_s3vBNeTy8 Ashworth is not our chief scout and he’ll be the first to admit that. By his own words he’s the center of the wheel - and that specific link up is Steve Nickson’s scouting team + Howe and his backroom team. Ashworth links the two together and Howe has spoken very very highly of our chief scout. ^ just trying to make sure we give Nickson some just due as well.

Kanj Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 While deep down I always hoped we’d spend this kind of money for some other winger we’ve been linked with, there is something very exciting about a young English player with bags of potential, highly rated universally by most scouts and football people who can grow with the club.

Willow Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 People need to give up worrying about how much we spend, we're fucking loaded and it's not even your money! Just enjoy the rebuild, let the accountants worry about FFP and soak it all in Bit pissed writing this but......aye, gan radge Amanda! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IzzyIsak Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) I don't care if we spent 20m or 60m on him, not my money. I didn't want him but Howe and the club did, they know more than me and i'll now get behind him as he's an NUFC player. And fuck Everton.

ExiledGeordie Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Gordon gives us much more depth and considering how much work our players are required to do you need quality to bring off the bench to maintain intensity. He’ll also push Miggy and others to maintain form and enable Howe to rotate players more to avoid fatigue. He’ll flourish under Howe’s coaching imo.

Bimpy474 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Good promising English talent who can play across all front 3 positions, ideal for our system. By God he's a cheating little shite though, ah well that's the current football way like it or not. Hope he scores a hat trick against Everton.
