What if a transfer was true AND he was still here next season (albeit on loan) though?
Agree that he isn't a £1mill player and that the Championship is his ceiling btw. I think someone will slightly overpay or a higher team take a chance based on him being left footed and tall.
What did you think of Maguire when he played against us 5 years ago, as a 22 year old?
I didn't see Maguire when he played against us 5 years ago.
I don't even remember him back then, who was he playing for?
If Macguire goes to wherever some posters on here seem to think that Happe would be signed by Leicester to replace him.
I highly rate Happe, but he`s nowhere near good enough for the Premier League.............He`d probably end up in their U/23s at best.

I also believe that if JE was still with us not one of those players would have left this season. Next maybe, probably, but they'd have all been on the bus for the journey out of league 2 this coming season.
Next season, yeah? Great. Lose Bonne on a free and Koroma for tribunal money after forcing them to stay at the club where they will no doubt be distracted or unhappy. Genius idea. Much better than raking in £750,000ish and replacing them with players who actually want to be here.

I would say it’s exceedingly rare for a club to get promoted and start the season much weaker than the season before. We are that club currently and certainly if we lose Happe and Judd. Oh joy. That’s the orient we know and love. I don’t care if all our young players want to better themselves and leave but for F sake, spend a few hundred grand on a really good central midfield player.
That will not be happening, bargin bin for us I'm afraid.
We’ve had a bid accepted for Josh Falkingham of Harrogate Town. Keep twisting those knickers.

Err no actually, you negotiate a new contract increasing their pay and you go again. It’s how football works if you did’t know. All players can be bought it’s just a question of how much.

It is he any good? He’s the small bloke isn’t he? Does anyone have any in depth knowledge on him?
