Seriously how were we meant to compete for Simms when Coventry sold Gyokeres the same weekend they signed Simms?Neither did Ellis Simms apparently but Rusyn does...
Ronaldinho’s son has signed for Burnley, I feel ancient[/QUOTE yeah
He has but most of that was in the past, as i said decent owner but not done much in the last 10 yrsLook at what he's done for them over the years. Signing players like Ravanelli months after scoring the winning goal in the Champions league final. How does that even happen?
Gazza, Allen Boksic, Southgate, Juninho, Paul Ince to name but a few of the big names he's brought over to Teesside.
Building a team that was capable to reach a Uefa Cup final, he's brought some really exciting times for Boro fans over the years, and they are lucky to have him.
He took over when they were on their arse, built them a new stadium, one of the best training grounds in the country, and made them the club they are today despite having a small fanbase.
We didn't spend £4.5m on either of those playersNeither did Ellis Simms apparently but Rusyn does...
What has any of that got them? Couple of cup finals and plenty relegations.Look at what he's done for them over the years. Signing players like Ravanelli months after scoring the winning goal in the Champions league final. How does that even happen?

I think he’d have been good but he’s not got the best reputation. Someone with goals in this division, that age sounds like our profile. I just have a feeling there’s something lined up but I also have a bit of sunburn so it easily be that.Would have taken Conway definitely. We need to make moves and soon. Otherwise it's going to be the same old (we tried but our target didn't fit the profile we wanted)
Yep. Loads more experience too.What’s really telling watching Leeds vs Boro who have both made 8 changes each from the weekend, is how much better their second 11s are compared to ours. It’s stark.

Id rather KLD in charge at the minute, feel hes done/doing some really exciting things
At least he’s not pocketing any of it and investing straight back into the team! Great ownerNot really backing the manager here, just allowing the recruitment team to spend money they've brought in through selling players over the last 2 years. Clever.

They won a cup to be fair. I’d give my left nut for that.
