Browning has looked quality so far apparently.One thing we do need is a solid partnership at centre half. Two lads who will stay fit and play just about every game together. I don't see that amongst our current options.

Have we got the funds to sign good young players though? Very much doubt itCrazy, he's f***ing 30 what happened to this young team Grayson was going to build, more bullshit, this clubs f***ing mental.
That's the thing, some players are just suited to this league and Jerome is one of them. I know he's not an exciting name but then neither were the likes of tommy smith / David connelly etc who did the business for us at various times in this division.Very good record in this league
Agree mate. He is what you would label a "Championship Player"That's the thing, some players are just suited to this league and Jerome is one of them.

Great to see us loading up on players towards the end of their careers with no resale value. The only young ones in are on loan. Part of the reason that we are in such a state financially
Agree with this, buy young and loan experience would be my mantra......

I'd rather have him than Murphy

We need some nous up top mate. He's 31 next month on the back of 37 in 115 with Norwich. All sounds plausible to meGreat to see us loading up on players towards the end of their careers with no resale value. The only young ones in are on loan.

You bet he was.Connolly was excellent for us that season, a cracking signing by Keane

No doubt the same folk who are dissing Jerome heralded O'Shea's one year dealgood point
Another 3o year old with little or no resale value. And the fee is reported to be more than any club has paid for him previously. We have to stop buying players at their highest price and selling them at a loss or giving them away.
Thanks for taking the time to post that mate Appreciate it.Would be very disappointed if we sold Jerome this summer. Firstly we've already sold two first-teamers for large sums (Howson - £5m / Murphy - £12m), the last thing we need to do is sell another, do all our players agents have properties in the North-East?
As for the player himself:
His main attribute is hard-work. Forget all the cliches about how every player should do that as a minimum, you won't see a striker work as hard in this division, chasing every lost cause. He's deceivingly quick for his age/stature, strong in the air, and by all accounts a likeable chap among the squad.
At this level, he's a great player and will guarantee you goals. He'll miss some shockers from time-to-time which is why he was/will never be good enough for the Premier League where you have to take your chances when they come. The reason we might sell, is he's now 30-years old and fighting for a spot with Nelson Oliveria, who's also been linked with a £8m move to Reading and Wolves, and seems to be just ahead of Jerome in the pecking order.
Bottom line, he would be a great signing for you in this division and perfect foil for Vaughan (who I also rated when he was with us but just too injury prone). I hope we don't sell.
OuchCrazy, he's f***ing 30 what happened to this young team Grayson was going to build, more bullshit, this clubs f***ing mental.
We also need to try and get promoted.
