I'd go out and buy a Big Tasty if we signed Archer today

Apparently obligation fee would have been Huge so deal is no good for us. Shame

If you won the Euro millions and the jackpot was only 12m you'd spend the rest of your life moaning Alan

Should I change my name to moaning Alan?

Downed tools?
What a ridiculous comment

He was woeful. Have a look at the players ratings.

I don’t get the obsession this club has with re-signing ex players, or appointing them in club roles.

The whole squad was running out of steam at the end of that season, sad but it happens. We lost by the one goal in a tight 180 minutes. I didn't see anyone down tools.

It's not an obsession with players though is it.

Colin Cooper - success
Gary Pallister - failure
Patrick Bamford - success

There aren't that many are there?

You know exactly what you are getting and what they are good at

Archer back would be incredible, but as has been said, the purchase obligation is silly money so it's a no go.

archer is a player any team in the championship would have. Hence why the best team in the league ( Leeds) wanted him too. We shouldn't discount ourselves from the situation just cos he played for us before. He was excellent for us by the way.

You know what they were, not what they are. There’s a reason the general consensus is that you should never go back.

There are times it works, but there are plenty of times it doesn’t.

Juninho.

To be honest I'd have him back here now for a fourth spell!

I still think he was carrying an injury. Late on in the second leg the ball was dropped in behind the right back for him to run onto and just couldn't get away from the Coventry player. Usually he would have pulled away, opened his body up and put the ball across the keeper into the far corner.

Juninho
Pallister
Cooper
Bamford

They all worked out

 

[naively_optimistic]

Judging Archer's time at Boro on the Coventry play off is just nuts. He wasn't the reason we lost. To say he downed tools is just nuts - that is saying he didn't want to win, didn't want a Wembley final and wasn't interested in a permanent contract with Boro in the PL. I would suggest - that would be would have been motivated to do the exact opposite..... It just didn't work out for the team!

It would explain the complete lack of movement. I remember being absolutely livid and screaming for him to be hooked.

Please tell me how Pallister was a failure second time round?

Downing. The way he ended his time with us was heartbreaking.
