he is undoubtedly going to play in a top league much sooner rather than later but should get another season in the championship under his belt first, and dare I say, see what we manage to do. I'm sure it's the Prem. he really wants and by staying in England that's the best way to stay under the noses of the top teams.Plus, he was the King of Stoke in a lacklustre, confused and disappointed side last season. I think next door's Collie could've stood out .. mind, he is pretty fast and a good organiser at the back with plenty of leadership skills  I've got a good feeling about the new season and I'm the biggest pessimist usually  Stick with us for now young man |

It’s looking likely we’ll at some point cash in on Burger and Bae for Souttar/Collins level cash.
Those two sales were well documented as keeping us on the right side of FFP rules so it can’t be underestimated how important the Burger and Bae sales will be.
For that reason I think Dublin deserves a lot of credit.

For that reason I think Dublin deserves a lot of credit. That's not the case at all. We didn't need the Souttar money to be FFP compliant. Apart from that I agree Dublin did us proud and I can't imagine why we got rid, especially for a bloke who expects agents not to play one club off against another/others. |

The honourable thing is to honour his contract to the best of his ability... If a transit van load of €100 notes is offered and Stoke chose to sell him then that is OK. If he just wants to play for a better/bigger club and or a different league then the honourable thing is for him to honour his contract and wait until we choose to sell him. I think he will be a very honourable man 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ Almost at the levels of people not wanting players just because they don’t “want” to play for the shirt. Like there’s more than a handful of players in the world these days who play with their heart for the team employing them. A better opportunity comes along, they’re off and assuming the money is ok, the club will oblige. Easy enough. |

The one thing I’m thinking is, hopefully, he won’t want another big change quite so soon. Another language? Another lifestyle change? I’d be more concerned if an English club made a bid.
Think he’ll stay this window, not sure about January. We could do with him having a slow start and then firing us to promotion after January’s window has passed.

A better opportunity comes along, they’re off and assuming the money is ok, the club will oblige. Easy enough. Exactly. It has been that way for so many years now. Aslong as we get a good price and a fair price then there is absolutely nothing wrong with Junho wanting to leave. Anyone who thinks it's dishonorable or anyone who will think less of him if it happens is completely moronic to be honest. It's the equivalent of them working in a chippy..but getting a job offer from Microsoft with a better salary, better work environment and career progression. What is that person gonna do? "Oh i'm sorry I can't as people will think bad of me as I agreed to work in the chippy for 4 years first" I know that's an exaggerated example but it still works 🤣 |

If we’re top of the league in January he’s not leaving in January cos he’ll see the premier league with Stoke on the horizon. |

Like I've said previously, they mostly speak fluent English in the Netherlands. It's probably one of the few countries he could move to where there wouldn't be that much difference. |

That is massive he genuinely has everything needed to be a superstar in South Korea, could eclipse even Son. We should enjoy him while he’s here and sell as many shirts as we can. I’d get a satellite depot set up with preprinted shirts out in Korea ready to go, if we know he’s staying |

He must have some proper good people promoting him. You wouldn’t think anything he’d done in his career so far would warrant it. Playing for a second division English club and not many caps (is it 1 ?). Can’t see many other championship player featuring on the cover of a non football glossy. Looks like a proper gigolo. |

Get the old aerodrome up and running for direct flights, we could call it the Meir-Seoul train and watch the won roll in. |
