    Would love that. Would personally be giving Neil 4 and Rigg 8 and telling them they're the mainstays of our midfield for the next 3 years at least

    He's a teenage boy, he'll choose 69.

    Expect him to be starting most games next season. Big contract for someone of his age but very well deserved. KLD made it a priority very early on I heard.

    He’s also on more than what Newcastle offered. I can’t speak for Man Utd, but I think the idea of playing every week is crucial.

    Norwood Neil Rigg is a very decent midfield in my eyes …

    Its not in the slightest an exaggeration to say that this is already our signing of the summer. Huge huge huge.

    Just look at the fees Gray is commanding.

    Beautiful, my guesses - Norwood, Mubama?, Dan Neil and maybe Hume?

    Class news that. He instantly becomes a £15m+ asset and that will only grow.

    Well done to the club, I can only imagine what the mags, man utd and the rest were throwing at him.

    he posted that before Romano did so I'd expect the one we're happy about is Rigg

    I think we have to be very careful with him. We ran Jobe into the ground and his performances suffered.

    Very young players have peaks and troughs, we've got to manage those properly.

    Class news on Rigg if true. And it shows one thing that is absolutely class, the lad and his parents are switched on enough to know that playing time and commitment to developing him is more important than more money!

    Still sounds like he is getting a good contract but I bet some clubs were offering double or even treble the wage he will get here.

    The attitude he has shown signing shows a lot of maturity and is another indicator this lad has the making of a star.
