Darren Huckerby

[Paynaldinho]

I just heard Norwich released Darren Huckerby, could be a good free.
persuade him to come down here......decent player

wages?

 

[Frutos]

How old is he now?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I think the average wage for the Championship is £250k a year. I would imagine he was on at least £400k. If he is willing to take a 75% pay cut, then it might be doable.

wages?

If reasonable why not?

He is 32 though so 1 year rolling contract

see above

 

[Leekbrookgull]

32yo, and i think linked to a move to Sheffield United.

 

[JJ McClure]

Two chances. Slim and None, and I'm fairly sure slim just left in a taxi.

they wont be reasonable - and at 32 he sure as hell is not going to except a 1 year rolling contract in league one

Then no sorry i wouldn't go for him if he wouldn't agree to that!!

why not - we gave forster a three year contract, yet huckerby is a far better player than forster is

it will come down to wages, and a player of his calibre is going to be attracting attention from the majority of the championship - he is WELL out of our league

 

[Hiney]

If we sign Darren Huckleberry I will dance naked on the centre spot

We will see

I can see 10 players going to make room for 5 TOP DRAWER replacements

I have a lot of faith in Wilkins as he done well considering the unrest around christmas.

Without the unrest i think we would have been in the playoffs?? but who knows

And be the first ever streaker at Withdean

top drawer league one replacements - if clubs the calibre of sheffield united are interested in huckerby as is rumoured, where do you think he would rather go?

 

[clapham_gull]

Will end up at another championship club or MLS

 

[blue'n'white]

Bob Hope and No Hope and Bob Hope is dead
Besides he's a thug
Yes yes I know he'd be OUR thug but does that make it any better ?

Why did Forster come here for the money he did he is VERY good

Too good to be playing in league 1

I personally think we might be pleasantly suprised this summer

 

[Leekbrookgull]

What to Hiney

wasnt that to do with family being down south and owning property down here as much as anything else?

the furthest south huckerby has played is coventry. and if he goes somewhere like sheffield united, he has a realistic chance of getting one more crack at the premiership. and they will be able to offer a lot lot more money than we can. but apart from that, i can see why we will be leading the chase to sign him
