Transfer News Transfer targets summer 2019

[Lescottsforehead]

Oxford mail trolling us, ‘could be last signing’. Hope not but content if so!

From the BRFC forum:

"But Taylor is the most hated Shithead ever.I doubt he might even travel for the game.There might be police advice given to Oxford."

very sad.

Bit sad, he’s one of their best ever scorers isn’t he?

 

[RATC]

This could be a very smart signing. Gorrin racking up cards and bring Thorne in as Hanson mentor to give him someone to learn from.

Reminds me of the saga with that bid by Swindon for James Constable and he turned it down. Wonder what our thoughts would have been of Constable making the move to our rivals?

Constable declines Swindon talks

Oxford United striker James Constable turns down the offer of talks with arch-rivals Swindon Town after the U's accepted a bid for their top scorer.

Interesting that there seems to be no article concerning the signing of Taylor or Thorne on the BBC Sport website. Maybe BBC Oxford Sport are awaiting a third one before going to publish?

Edit: Panic stations over, article now up.

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

Having come back a broken man from Blackpool after a weekend of excess this has really perked up the Monday spirits! Perhaps Admin should delete the first 200 odd pages of this doom mongering thread ????

No! We had to go through the pain of those 200 pages to earn these signings. These signings were forged in the sweat and tears of those 200 pages!

We can recycle it for next year and the year after, and the year after that.....

Some of our supporters have never forgiven Joey for wearing red, even though he eventually saw the light and returned home.

 

[oufc1991]

Also on a side note ? to those people inc myself I have to say fair play to the board and kr for assembling us a very gd team this season

I love the fact Joey cost Swindon an absolute fortune whilst we got him back from them for relative peanuts and of course the celebration at the Manor when he scored. He probably delayed the club collapsing financially for a few years giving us that wonderful promotion season and the few years following.

Presumably Thorne and Hanson know each other pretty well.

From their time together at Derby, I mean.

Then again we gave Jemson utter s**t whenever he came back yet he scored around 20 in the Championship for us.

 

[Sarge]

FLW .......

 

[Mystery Yellow]

Without his goals they wouldn’t be where they are now 20+ in the conference close to 30 in League 2, all a bunch of bitter c-nts

 

[MiddleBartonYellow]

So after all that can we all say that we have had an excellent transfer window.

 

[Upthecowboys]

Well what a great window that has been. Signing players with potential and ‘been there done it’ players like Taylor. Fair play to Tiger and the Board. There was me fearing the worst!

Chuck a match fit Baptiste in and a fitter Rob Hall (give him time!) then that will be some strength in depth.

 

[Steve McAvoy]

Have to say with the quality of these additions great news for our younger players coming through the squad. Not bad for supporters either!

 

[BrockBuster]

Bloody hell, when I start my Oxford United save in Football Manager 2020 for once I won't have to go and sign half a dozen players
