I love how Kyle Joseph has seemingly already taken on the nickname 'the lad from Swansea'. Seen him referred to that multiple times on here and Twitter

Current record is still the £470K for Windass to Aberdeen back in the '90s isn't it?

Depends - did we ever actually pay it in the end?

Not with our own money, no, think Bradford paid Aberdeen when they bought him off us!

I thought we beat that for Marvin Johnson?

We did, but only after we sold him! So the story goes..

Just found this on Google




The highest transfer fee ever paid by the club is the £470,000 paid to Aberdeen for Dean Windass in 1998, though it has been reported that the undisclosed fee paid for Marvin Johnson in 2016 exceeded this amount, and the highest fee received is the estimated £3,000,000 paid by Leeds United for Kemar Roofe in 2016.

On a Left Back or a Right Back?

On a Left Back or a Right Back?

Surely a winger??

I remember when he signed. I was working in Currys in Hollow Way and he came in to buy stuff for his new house. Tried to get tonnes more discount than I was allowed to give. When I said I couldn't do the deal he wanted he said "f**k it, my dad works for Currys so I'll speak to him instead" tight git

£5 million we spent on Jamie Hanson no?

That he’s a player who does a lot more than score goals? Hate it when people think that they can judge a footballer by some numbers in a column having never watched them.

BT-A is one of the most exciting players to watch in L2. A live wire with genuine pace and quality who can play wide or through the middle and has started adding goals to his game. Would be a very popular player here in no time.

And you have seen him play how many times? Actually at a game not on the tv or other media. And be honest.
And I have seen posts on various players quoting their stats from you on here.
If he does come I'll be right behind him, don't you worry about that!!

Why does someone have to go to an actual game to pass judgement on a player? 95% of players are assessed through media and data sources rather than endless scouting missions. If that's good enough for those spending hundreds of thousands then I reckon its good enough for your average fan to do the same.

I've seen him live a few times, 3 or 4, and then live on tv the couple of times Salford have been on in the last couple of years. I'm not sure why I have to qualify an opinion to someone who has admitted that he hasn't watched him though?

Judging a player who has played accross the front line who is just 23 years of age on goals alone is a pretty reductive outlook.
