Jesus there are some bed wetters on here... Tufans gone, its a shame, but if you think there aren't wheels in motion,. he wouldn't have been allowed to leave.
I would've recommended Tickton Tiger,he likes a game of 5's but sadly he prefers walking Football...He's currently in Germany training with Gareth!!!
Tbh I'm not sure Tufan would have fit into Wally's style anyway. Always had a lot of time for him and it's a shame he's gone, but it's not the end of the world
Obviously, I’m gutted Tufan is going. It’s a shame when a fan favourite (who has a good song!) does. I’m certainly not panicking yet though. Let’s see who we sign in the next few weeks and what we do with the money from Greaves etc. That will answer all we need to know. Keep calm everyone. UTT.
I’m sad Tufan is going. For all the talk of wanting entertaining football - he’s one of the players I’ve most enjoyed watching over the last few years. Seemed like he’s done his fair share behind the scenes too. Obviously you have to see what happens by the time the season comes around - but the rebuild does seem to keep getting bigger and bigger. As of now - it’s hard to see that we’ll do enough good stuff to get us back in with a chance of promotion. Not only do we need to get more top first team players in - but the squad needs beefing up for decent depth as well. It’s starting to feel like a 2/3 year job - and that’s if the manager settles…
So players who are good enough to start next season are: Coyle (needs someone to compete with) Greaves (99.9% chance he’s going) A. Jones McLoughlin (barely good enough to start) Philogene (90% chance he’s going) Seri Slater Pandur Ömür The rest are Ingram, Sinik, Vaughan, Woods, Longman, Simons, Fleming, Lokilo, Furlong, Smith, C. Jones, Jacob and Lo-Tutala. **** me, most of these aren’t even good enough for the bench of a team with aspirations of promotion. At a minimum, we now need three strikers, a right-winger, right-back, left-back, defensive mid, another box-to-box mid, a replacement for Tufan and probably replacements for Greaves and Philogene. I just think this is a shambolic situation to be in considering Acun has owned the club for more than two years now and the club doesn’t had a solid spine to build on for the upcoming season. New manager, complete overhaul of the squad, new head of recruitment etc. This doesn’t scream ‘well-run club’ to me.
It makes no sense, he was one of the few success of the Acun first summer window, he's effectively still got 2 years left, we signed him about a stone overweight from a club he'd fallen out with the hierarchy with. He's had 2 decent seasons, got back to his old self and we're selling him at a substantial loss. When you've already got a big overhaul, we just keep making it bigger and bigger. It's more shocking business from the 'brain team'. If Ehab did this, he'd have been crucified. Let's not forget, Jack Rudoni has just gone for £5m
On a plus point, it looks like most of the stupidly high wages players have now gone! So that should give us a bit of room to sign players on less & maybe for less too!
Tufan obviously wanted to go. We’ve resurrected his career or Rosie has. He’s been ok good not great.
Nobody seems to want to be part of the family any more. I know it'll be brushed under as he wanted to go but he didn't look or play like he wanted to leave last season.
I didn't look like I wanted to leave my last job months before I was offered a better deal elsewhere either.
