davulsukur Posted May 17, 2024 Posted May 17, 2024 For McGuire to give that interview, say what he said and reject a contract at his current club, I'd imagine he has enough potential options on the table for him to burn any bridges with us. 1 Quote

martonrover Posted May 17, 2024 Posted May 17, 2024 If we were a big enough fish I'm sure McGuire would be prepared to forgive us for what happened in January. The only chance we've got, (if we're still interested), is if we're the only dance at the disco. 1 Quote

And flew half way around the world to her house 1 Quote

JamieUK Posted May 17, 2024 Posted May 17, 2024 I imagine he's also a bit pissed that our arsing around denied him a move to Sheffield Wednesday and seeing what they did for those last few months. Even if it was only a loan he would have been in a winning side and put himself in the shop window. 1 Quote

Just as it would be if someone offered to considerably multiply your wage (and give you a platform to potentially better yourself) and then a move fell through for unacceptable reasons, you would be bitter.

I think it showed his character and it’s not one I want in the trenches of a relegation battle see szmodics for comparison. Do you think he would act in such a way? 2 Quote

rovers11 Posted May 17, 2024 Posted May 17, 2024 That interview confirms McGuire won't be coming here. Not fussed at all. Now that we're in the summer window, there are much better options out there. 1 Quote
Polky Posted May 17, 2024 Posted May 17, 2024 Greg Cunningham has been released by PNE, worth a punt on a free transfer. Will add some experience and competition for Pickering. I would love to see Batty or Gent have a chance next season, with at least one being loaned out. 1 Quote

Football doesn’t work like that though. Besides, who could blame him being annoyed with us, for messing him about? McGuire is absolutely not the issue here and never will be. 3 Quote

Do you think he would act in such a way? He seems quite oustpoken so yes, if say a Prem club had gone to sign him, then pulled out and arranged a loan, then messed up the paperwork in such an unprofessional and for other clubs (not ours sadly) unprecedented way, denying him a massive pay increase and the chance of a life time. He probably would. Quote

Bad mouthed the club on his way out and stated he was joining his new club purely because they were offering him more money? Unlikely. 1 Quote

There’s a Ryan Gauld who plays in Canada, was once dubbed the Scottish Messi. I remember him leaving a Scottish club at a young age to play for Sp Lisbon or similar, but didn’t know he’d ended up in Toronto till I just looked it up. Think he’s a winger Edited May 17, 2024 by Forever Blue Quote
