    Disappointing take up for my “The Britt is Back” Elton suggestion.

    Your song?
    "6/10. Could do better". Happy now ?
    Could he be the one, the fox, or are we just sleeping with the past ?

    Yeah we haven't had a fox-in-the-box player since Anya. We did have a GOAT though - Fletcher.

    It’s been the window to end all windows!

    Just a shame we still can’t win any games.

    True but equally **** at scoring goals .

    In fact statistically in respect to goals per minute he’s worse .

    Would the window to end all windows be so big that it was just pure glass spanning the whole planet ( not good for greenhouse emissions) or just a massive brick wall spanning the whole planet ( even worse for greenhouse emissions )

    Either way we need to stick to approximately the same amount of windows we current have .

    No, because then it couldn't "slam shut", could it ?

    We’ve had disastrous luck recently with strikers who only have 4 letters in their name. Bayo. Gray.

    I applaud this effort to break the cycle.

    Boro fans laughing at us having Assombalonga and Fletcher, I must admit I kind of forgot about the latter!

    Very sad that we had to point out he's been on loan for 18 months.

    Another on a 5 year contract.

    I'd be ringing my agent if I was Britt asking why I wasn't offered that!

    Hope Britt can do a job. Better than Bayo and Manaj? Who knows. Can't be worse can he. I look forward to him tearing his hamstring v Sheff utd.

    Just 6 months, Fletcher was with us the whole of last season!

    Thought he went to the MLS or was that just over the summer?

    I mean can be easily forgettable!

    Actually think Bayo out and Britt back in is an upgrade, 6 month term and on a free ,I believe our recruitment policy is finally learning the error of their ways.(A man can hope and dream lol).

    If signing 30 year old Britt Assombalonga on a free is our recruitment team "learning the error of their ways" then god ******* help us going forward.

    Agreed. But not having ever to see Bayo or Manaj ever again is blissful.

    Has anyone set up a sweepstake on the minute of his debut in which he pulls his hamstring?

    Not sure he's fast enough anymore to pull a hamstring.

    Give the Watford medical team a fortnight with him and we’ll have them blowing up as he bends over to tie his laces

    Incredibly, he was sent back early as they had no interest in playing him.

    He’s still carrying a latent one from when we sold him 10 years ago . Probably about time it flared up .

    Whoever sanctioned those signings in August like Bayo, Manaj, Okoye etc etc needs to be removed. Problem is it Pozzo ? Probably.

    Waste of money, completely the wrong sort of players we ought to be looking at and not the sort we needed if aiming to return to the PL immediately. What money we had was squandered and now extensive remedial work taking several windows is required. The bringing in of Araujo and Britt and the removal of Bayo is a clear acknowledgement that the original decisions were flawed and probably made to help out some dodgepot who fingers crossed ends up in jail and we no longer touch with a bargepole.

    It was Gino. The fact Giaretta is still at the club tells me Gino sucked up to Bayat and swallowed all his tails of the great players in his little black book. Gino was mugged off for 3 years by Bayat and his own desire to prove he was some super-scout.

    At least it appears he’s woken up and handed over the grownup stuff to Manga. If you’re a DIYer you need to know your limitations and not try to install your own central heating. You hire a professional and get the job done correctly.

    Yep it’s a good step in the right direction. That said the fact useless Giaretta still gets to suckle on our teat for his salary is still laughable.

    There was a moment towards the end today where he tried to sprint after a ball over the top and it was just pitiful, poor bloke looked embarrassed to be fair to him

    But yeah, no brainer on a 6 month deal, can’t really lose with this one

    He looks like someone who should be playing for the reserves in a Sunday league team and I ain't kidding.

    He would not even make the bench on my SundayLeague team.

    Would rather see him trying than watch that useless piece of **** Davis.
