katie melua Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 More chance of Portsmouth winning automatic promotion this season than this happening Unless he takes a huge paycut. Plus their fans are heavily divided on him. This was a player that before the new year, couldn't hit a cows backside with a banjo (as like all of Portsmouths non league standard strike force). It's only really been the signing of Alan O'Brien from Sunderland that has turned their strike force round. They're about to lose Sean Raggett as well who's been an outstanding player for them. He doesn't want to sign a contract with a side that has zero ambition going on reports from the local media down there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His dad was the main reason for his head being turned. Truth is with everything that followed probably set his career back by 3 seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Chow Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I think we should be in for him if he’d want to come back here. Who wouldn’t leave us to go a team with better aspirations for their younger players, better facilities and so on…. Example too with shaw leaving, they’re getting offered better opportunities elsewhere, they’re going to take them ffs. I’m a Wednesdayite, but if Celtic came calling you’d be daft enough not to take that chance. Money talks…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashley8 Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 It's all history now..... makes my blood boil still though. Forver will be a scar Chansiri can never remove. The unbelievable ineptitude of his running of the vlub and the moment we saw he had NO idea what to do with academy players. Huge loss because we could have lost him anyway but to a club for money... instead the failure to act early enough and the arrogance you can't afford outside the premiership ment we let time go by and him to slip through our fingers. Still not really shown he's woken up to that danger of not tieing down our best youngsters or its just none have come through for so long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullen is said to have Intimated that he wanted the average wage of a 1st team striker?. The club are said to have made an offer that would have made him the highest paid Junior in the History of the club. Either way, would our fans have given him 5 years to get where he is today?, I think not. He is part of the history of this club now, move on.

That bit we do know. How much and how long we don't know. Anyway he will make a career in lower league football at best. Good luck to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t understand why anyone would laugh at this post. Not sure if any of our strikers has bagged 11 but the only one who seems capable is Gregory who is at the other end of his career. I’d have him back in the blink of an eye but that won’t happen with Chansiri. Unfortunate all around as if he left at the exact time he would have got game time.

GermanBird Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I wouldn't mind to have him back, but would he really be our first choice signing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls2k Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Only Lee Gregory has a better league apps/goals ratio than Hirst this season. Lee Gregory 10 league goals in 21 league appearances = 0.32 goals a game Berahino 6 goals in 27 league appearances = 0.22 Hirst Jnr 8 league goals in 36 league appearances = 0.22 goals a game Kamberi 4 league goals in 22 league appearances = 0.18 Paterson 6 league goals in 35 league appearances = 0.17 goals a game Sow 2 league goals in 13 league appearances = 0.15 goals per game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GermanBird Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I guess we all agree that we need another forwarder. But would Hirst really be the best option? Wouldn't Twine or May be the more obvious choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
