Charlie Wyke

Certainly is Rod. I suppose Sunderland gripes are no different to BCAFC supporters gripes when he left us.

 

Maybe worse ?

 

Shocking move.

 

Asda price

 

I agree wasn’t he top scorer last season? Usually they get a money to the championship or a bigger club, he’s gone from the biggest club in the league and probably the championship as well, who are always around the top 6 but should be higher to a small club in comparison who barely survived and were lucky to still be in business.

 

Havebt they been taken over recently?

 

Yes believe so, being bought off administrators isn’t the sign of a well run club as we well know.

 

I wonder what attracted him to the half a million pound a year contract?

 

You’d think he might have got that at a championship club had there been interest, as I say rare that the top scorer in a league goes to a smaller club in the same division who ended just outside the drop zone.

 

So he ran down his contract for money then. No wonder the Sunderland fans will hate him. It's a utter joke hes signed for them.

 

Did his previous treatment by the fans have an influence on his decision the Sunderland fans gave him right grief previous seasons, maybe he'd had enough and though leaving as a 30 goal strikers give the two fingers to Sunderland fan.
You would think Wigan have given him a better deal than he had at Sunderland so win win for Charlie,.

 

Who knows I’m just more surprised he didn’t get a championship move, Middlesbrough the club he supports were rumoured to be interested. If Wigan are paying them sort of wages then you feel promotion is a must, that club have been poorly run since Whelan left I doubt they’ll get an owner like that again.

 

Yes you would think if his home town club were interested they could have come to some arrangement as Steve Gibson has always been very supportive of the club in the passed.
Maybe he didn't want to take a risk on player that has never played above league one level.

 

There have been a lot of good players come through the system at Middlesborough plus a lot of good players come from that area. Some players who have spent time at City, Peter Beagrie, Tony McMahon, Chris Kamara.

 

Yes Steve Gibsons been a great owner over the years backing the club with some great signings, Fabrizio Ravanelli, Gazza, Ince, and many more.

 

Broncs how can you forget
Juninho,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,goalllllllllllllllllllllllllll juninho........

 

How could I forget Juninho probably their biggest signing even accepting Ravanelli was a consistent goal scorers for Boro during his short time there.

 

Reminds me of Mrs Merton............. "so Debbie McGhie, tell me what attracted you to bald, short Millionaire, Paul Daniels"
