Absolutely bizarre, basically spunked all out transfer kitty in the January on a injured player. Then didn’t give him a serious chance. Must be a attitude issue or something because he never got a wiff.

Tbh I think O’Neill thought Tymon needed replacing then all of a sudden he got his finger out and actually looked like a footballer again.

He had other injuries which hampered his process and even got covid as he was about to get his chance, sometimes it's not about attitude or anything sinister it simply doesn't work out for a player at a particular club...........

Even more bizarre than the Surridge deal.

At least we’ve managed to shift him permanently considering he clearly had no future under MON.

500k wouldn't be a disaster. Not a great source though It'll be 20 quid up front with an additional 200k if Luton win the World Cup and the final £299,980 if they win Wimbledon and The Open.

I I understand what your saying timing circumstances etc, I just don’t think he’s had a fair crack

Weird one. No way we got our money back either. it says undisclosed and that means somebody has been shafted, im hoping it mad nath and he thought he was getting Campbell or something I imagine most if not all of the fee paid to Charlton will have been recovered. Doughty was a low risk signing, made when he was injured and due to be out of contract. I thought he had potential to do well in the Championship, but I guess O'Neill doesn't fancy him enough. I just commented positively about Clarke's pace and here we are getting rid of someone else with pace. Maybe Doughty prefers life down south.

So he sent him to Cardiff for game time yet fucks him off before even having a look at him in pre season, so he'd obviously already made his mind up really.

Bloody hell, Bayern. You're getting too good at this. Strange business all 'round though. Where did he call this one?

2017 Stoke City - "Blowing all our money on players that don't work out and not being able to get rid of them for three years" 2022 Stoke City - "Blowing all our money on players that don't work out but getting rid of them quickly"

His injury was as bad a version of whatever he did you can do. We would have known that and still signed him for what for us in these last 3 years is a decent fee.

Will we need any cover now to compensate?.

Sounds like more luck than judgement that one. Like when theonlooker randomly mentioned Kostas Stafylidis as a potential signing at left back and 5 hours later he signed...............

Just that we had offered both a deal.

I think we can be pretty certain now that Aldridge was binned back off to Millwall rather than out of his own choice. Manager as final say on players signing. With O’Neil it’s always someone else’s fault.

If it was at any other club you'd be questioning whether the manager was deranged at Stoke you call it progress.
