Kernow Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 No idea on the fee, but on Wigan’s end they seem to be saying about 750k. That’s excellent value for money for what we’re getting and Wigan are rightfully annoyed that they’re losing yet another for cheap. I’d say if we’re comparing Bogle & Byrne for this coming season, then we’re probably upgrading. Obviously Bogle has loads more potential and will be a lot better, however for right now we’ve got an extremely similar player with bags more experience. Great addition for us, our defence is looking so much stronger than last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think we should have a conversation with Wigan about players we could loan them (with a loan fee involved) we must have youngsters that would benefit from being with them as well as others such as Flojo that would help them out. I do feel a bit of 'there but for the grace of god go I' and feel for them and their fans sorry this should have read without a loan fee involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've seen of them both, they are very very similar players. Could be a good destination for JHI too. They've only really got Joe Garner as a recognised CF at the minute, so would get plenty of game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, football is a cut throat business and the likes of Ebosele and Hector-Ingram will probably need loan fees. I guess we could've cut a deal with Ebosele going the other way for the year. Hector-Ingram could do with some first team football now too. Not sure what he learns playing in the U23s again, although I suspect that depends on us getting another striker in.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Pleased with this. As much as I would have liked to keep Bogle, Byrne should be at the very least a solid replacement and the rest of the Bogle/Lowe money looks like it's being tipped in to the attacking areas. Good business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 The only hesitation (and other clubs might have too) is do you want young players having to deal with all that mess around them at the moment. You can harden up young players with some adversity but you can also break them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inter politics Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Stated heights and weights are often wrong (particularly in American sports) but apparently 1.80m - 5'11? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In for a tough relegation battle next season so none of it will be smooth sailing. Be good to get Ebosele, Mitchell-Lawson, Brown etc out on loan to a team that’ll play them week in week out though.

On the flipside, if things are so bad at Wigan it has the potential to knock a young players confidence if Wigan are getting battered every week * looks like i'm not the 1st person to think that, oops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
