Meh. I'd rather have kept the 16 year old. Comrade 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Duncan (who?) signing for Fiorentina! Edited February 4, 2022 by RoyMac5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottingram Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Off to Udinese on a free instead of Watford paying us compensation. Presumably end up back there within 6 months.

RoyMac5 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) No it wouldn't. Us being liquidated would be the final straw. We need to keep positive, we need to keep Rooney too. He's like the $6m dollar man(ager) - he can rebuild us! #COYR Edited February 4, 2022 by RoyMac5 Ellafella, Crewton, Zag zig and 2 others 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Ram Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 This is such a shame as festy is such a big game changer in the last 20 minutes of games or so. There's still a ton he needs to work on but he's already begun to improve quite a bit this season in terms of his positioning. The squad is just getting gutted and there's seemingly nothing we can do about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Sigh. Another day another miserable development at DCFC. I can't blame anyone for either wanting to secure their future or frankly just wanting out of the situation. Everyone who has wanted to stay and fight, Rooney, coaches, players, staff, non playing staff, all of them, staying is above what's expected and they should receive gratitude for it. Whatever happens and wherever we go at the end of the season, I've no blame for the people who are caught in this through no fault of their own. As for Festy, good luck to him. He's been great. Going to be sad to see him playing for Watford. Zag zig, IslandExile, Indyram and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EFL is meant to be in the interest of the 72, why aren't they fighting in our corner when a club is effectively stealing a player from us?

Sparkle Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I heard stuff yesterday -sadly he is initially going abroad then before returning to Watford in whatever league they will be in as we will get peanuts from this instead of multi millions of pounds - the club has lost an absolute fortune RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Again if I was a prospective bidder I would be lowering my bid as this lad was the one with the most sellable highest capacity of a decent price and I mean in two seasons we would be getting well over £15-£20 million - we produce these players in a very expensive academy and make next to nothing from them in terms of the £60 million or so it costs for a ten year period Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I mean this ducking sucks for us, however it's a great opportunity for Ebosele. I wish him all the best. All we can do at the moment is take it on the chin. We can't act as though we are traditional football supporters anymore, we're just propping up a community asset in the hope it doesn't go bust, which looks more and more unlikely each passing day. I've always championed that we should be excited for these lads, particularly the younger ones, that are getting the chance to get away from this current situation and to further their career. They've played their part this season, no reason they should have to suffer any more than they have to. ck-, GenBr and Caerphilly Ram 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted McMinn Football Genius Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 47 minutes ago, Ghost of Clough said: Got to feel for Rooney... Told by the administrators that no players will leave Rejects the offer from Everton. Players sold behind his back. If I was Rooney I’d duck this club of ours right off, effective immediately. He is being cheated of the opportunity to compete. He is doing everything he can to save our club whilst all those “running the club” are ducking him over behind his back.
