Rumour from where?

[cambgull]

Anyone fancy joining me in a trip to Bristol to nail a poisened dwarf's hands to a table?

Only downside I suppose would be that he'll think he's Jesus...

[Bearne1]

Someone I know who has a customer who is very 'friendly' with Mr Buckle.

Watch this space (sigh)

Should this be true it would be a major loss, Robertson has been an unsung hero and never receives the plaudits he deserves.

[DerbyGull]

Surely he can't be that arrogant to try and get another!!!

[AustrianAndyGull]

yes definately a huge blow if this rumour transpires to be true and we lose robbo. as it stands i am really pleased with the quality of our back line and i feel it is really, really strong. We have a good sound base from which to work and this could be jeopardised by the loss of robbo. Buckle just **** off now because you are starting to get on my tits!

[Richinns]

I would agree Andy - currently the back 4 is definitely our strongest area. Let s hope there is no truth to this, and if there is, let s hope we can have some bollox and tell back stabber Buckle to piss off.

It would be a loss, granted, but not as big a loss as some have seemed to make out, in my opinion. Robbo is always treading a tight line - shirt pulling is a major concern for me, and he does it very frequently. Luckily I can't recall a referee giving any penalties thanks to the shirt pulling, but there have been several decisions against Robbo because of it. I do agree with the person who said that our back 4 is our strongest area at the moment, but should Robbo move on, we still have two very able centre halves (basing that on what people have said about Saah - can't remember seeing him play) and Ellis, who is still a fantastic defender in my eyes.

Got to say, I would be quite surprised if Robertson did go as he wasn't one of Buckles signings, and the fact that Buckle had seemingly tried to flog him a few years back, but then again, stranger things have happened (Mr Carayol, for example).

We must remember that Robbo is now 24, he can't really be classed as a youngster anymore, and this is one of his final chances to move up the leagues. I personally can only see CR becoming an able League One defender, or a top L2 defender, but he needs to cut the fouling out of his game (or atleast reduce it).

It would be a loss but not as major as others seem to think, for me.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if Robbo was on his list. I reckon he is probably the only one left that Bucks might want other than O'Kane.

On the subject of O'Kane, I reckon Buckle will wait until the January window in the hope that BRFC are riding high (while TUFC are languishing near the bottom no doubt) and with a bit of money in the bank off the back of rising crowds he will come back with a cheeky offer (£50k?) and with us knowing he will be out of contract in the summer and wary of what a tribunal might decide .... I wouldn't bet against us accepting that sort of figure!

As for Robbo's value, well if Zebs is @ £35k, I reckon we will probably take £10 - £15k max!

[Boom Boom]

Not surprising.

No doubt Torquay United being the stubborn football club they are will stand strong & make it as hard as possible for Buckle to sign him...yeah right.

Atleast on the bright side we've got Ling's amazing non-league superstars coming on board....

Roll on August....

CP - Eunan's out of contract at the end of the season? I thought he signed a 3 year deal before the season just gone?

[friendlygas]

Cant see this being true if Robertson is a left back as we have two already!! Sawyer from last season and Ian Brown from QPR. I will be VERY surprised if the fee for Zebroski is as low as that.Cant believe our luck if it is and feel genuinely sorry for you.

'fraid not. Eunan signed a new 2 year deal last summer - so out of contract in 2012.
