Georginio Rutter

[CUSSIE01]

More hurt by Archie leaving than the other two tbh

Selling Archie May have been a necessity at the time and we still haven’t heard the whole story behind his departure & likely never will. The same can maybe be said of Summerville and we probably had no option with Geo because of his ( escape )sorry release clause being met but it’s the lack of replacements or even a coherent plan for replacements that worries me.
Our starting 11 will win more than they lose but that bench is so weak it’s scary, 2/3 injuries and we’re in serious trouble, still praying though that they pull something out of the hat at the last minute fool that I am.

I was expecting to lose Summerville and possibly Geo early on*
As that didn’t materialise the unexpected bid for Archie and the June 30th deadline meant we had to sell.

Summerville was going whenever an acceptable bid was made.

* Geo is a weird one, thought he’d stay and we’d be fine but did anyone really expect a bid for more than we paid? I thought at worst someone would try their luck with a late but unsuccessful 25m bid or a PL club gets desperate and meet our valuation of him at the last minute.

Gutted as we are, at least there is time to replace him now rather than the end of the window which would have been far worse

Gutted, because Georginio has been a joy to watch, yes frustrating at times, nevertheless a fantastic footballer at this level. I doubt we'll find a better replacement.

I now have visions of watching more games similar to the Middlesbro' fiasco, his departure really hurts, more so than losing Raphinia.

Furthermore, I suspect Thorp Arch is like a morgue without his infectious personality.

Yes he's a loss but, I've said this before I'm very proud of how our club developed him and Archie to be the successes they've become.
There will be other infectious personalities I am sure.

The wee man passed away a couple of months ago and it wasn’t easy seeing his photo every time I came on. I know, I know, sentimental old fool.

I know what you mean Cussie, I’ve kept mine of my old mate for now but it does pull at the heartstrings sometimes

A great photo of your fella BB, how is your newish addition settling in ? The missus is itching to get another pup but I’m trying to put it off for a while as going on hols or even a last minute weekend away is easier without having to organise his Lordship

Some have the power to chat abart anything they like in their club, and any thread Vic, they also have the power to move any post they like, to where they like, or even delete it, you know - like a dictatorship.

[Victor_OTT_17]

Yeah, sorry

Any ideas why this is taking such a long time? Seemed to be done and dusted Friday/Saturday?

No but I wouldn't trust that Tony Bloom guy who owns them to play with a straight bat where we're concerned.
