Jordan Rhodes to boro OFF!

[AucklandRover]

Well, actually, UNICEF has reported recently that many refugees and asylum-seekers are living on $1 a day, so it's best not to get too smart-arse on the subject.

To blame Rhodes for this is outrageous,his agent is just playing hardball to get more money.

Middlesboroughs behaviour is disgraceful -and they came in with their "offer"(?) right at the last minute when we have no time for a replacement - they have replaced Burnley as the team i dislike most in this league.......trying to get a quality player on the cheap.

Totally agree with Robin - dont rebuild next season, take Rhodes back instead.

Eh?
Poor old Jordan. How dare they suggest he can't have that extra 10 grand a week or so. What about his shoe-cupboard?
And you can't get that cool tuft of hair at the front for nothing, you know!

Yeah great, another season of playing the game of how many goals can we put on a plate for JR as we flounder 20 points shy of the top 6.

Not in Britain Aucks, why do you think they all want to come Here ..

Well, all I can say is, wouldn't YOU choose to get the best possible life for your family?
I am disgusted with the tiny quota established by the New Zealand government: 750 a year, with an extra 300 under "family support".
I accept that Britain is already crowded, but what's the solution? Throw them back in the sea, or let them starve in Syria?

Send them to Saudi Arabia,they have a camp already set up there with facilities that will hold three million refugees and its empty.. We don't want any more of them over here

Err a bit off topic..

Well well what can I say about this fiasco, it's that ugly trait greed rearing its head again. the games awash with it.
I have no idea , whether it be JR or his agent (as I wasn't in attendance at the meeting, as many posters seemingly were wrt their 'claims').
Makes no odds really, it all amounts to the same thing.
All I view are facts, and is where I am fairly stunned when it is viewed that PL was foolish and made the situation worse. Just my opinion, but he told it how it was. Some seem to read it as him saying the squad IS better without JR, when actually he said it can be (given reinvesting the monies involved Ie JR's salary alone pays for three players, and maybe more. Nothing wrong or disparaging at all in that.
The only thing, in retrospect he could reproach himself for was in speaking before pen had been put to paper. However, as all thought, the deal to, all intents and purposes had been rubber stamped and all else was formality. JR's retort at the breakdown says as much

Probably because of all the bombing, murder and food shortages in their homelands as a bunch of phucktards battle out over phucked up ideologies, oil and gas. I'd do the same and so would you, so don't be harsh on your fellow man. I doubt the climate is much of a pull.

They get £30 a weeks, which is probably like a dollar a day given the VAT we pay to finace tax cuts/avoidance for the rich

Ok does everybody believe it was Jordan Rhodes/agent asking for more money?
I don't it is very easy for Gibson to say that's the case but I think it was he either got cold feet or is trying to batter the price down
yes agents are all that's evil in football just look at the **** who came along with kean
I wouldn't mind betting that idiot Gibson is behind this
just for the record we need the money to rebuild but if the only team that comes back for him is Boro then we keep him simple as that
I really don't believe it is as simple as the player got too greedy.
