TheEnchanter Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 Well the answer was obviously since we last signed a permanent striker. Quite astonishing really. Must be a record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pity DC didn’t have the hindsight, that all posters on here have acquired. Could have saved himself the best part of £15m. There's no correlation between how often a myth is repeated and how true it becomes. Look back at the threads from back then, there were plenty who were not enthusiastic, and for several reasons. The finances alone should have ruled it out regardless 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Gurujuan was especially 'against', but there was a strong majority who were very much on side with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The level of excitement was rather less than the impression given by the much quoted legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 Am I right in saying that the above conversation is referring to trawling back through a thread to see who was and wasn't excited about Jordan Rhodes signing? Bit sad if so. I was delighted with him signing. But my opinion has changed fully. I also didn't think that when he signed it was going to be under a regime that willingly overspent and pushed the boundaries of ffp. I genuinely thought we signed him because it was financially viable. Like usual, i was clearly wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just curious about the legend of this avalanche of excitement for Rhodes to sign so thought I'd have a look to see how it measured up. Sorry if you feel let down.

The problem is if you dig up old threads and have a look, I end up looking like a lunatic in 80% of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you point me in the direction of the other 20%? Seriously I don't think I had any involvement in any of the Rhodes threads, but nevertheless I was absolutely delighted when I heard he had signed. He was the outstanding goalscorer outside of the Premier League and he was imo going to give us that little bit extra that would gain us promotion. I think that was the general opinion amongst most of support,(though not all) just shows how wrong we/I can be.
