    Chuks on his way back for £300k 👏🏻👏🏻
    If true, we lost him on a free and signed him back for £300k?

    Ouch.
    Happens though doesn't it. He wanted to move to a higher level and it hasn't worked out. We've also paid fees for Lawrie Wilson, Danny Haynes and Sean Clare who were all at our academy. Not quite as bad as Chelsea with Matic or Lukaku though!

    Why didn't we just bung him an extra 200k to sign in the summer.  Would of saved 100s of pages of moaning!

    Brilliant news though although this has taken about six weeks to do, god knows why. 
    Where's the fun in that. 
  • Good to see the black box is working!

    I'd welcome Chuks back, but why didn't we try harder to keep him in the summer.
  • Chuks back would be good, albeit on a much higher wage. Send Leko back to Brum. For all his considerable talents he doesn't seem able to read the game. DJ has to learn to cross the ball more accurately. I think he can do that. Dunno about CBT!

    forgot all about CBT - thank god for that !!! i don't think he is lazy by the way  :)
  •  I hope Chucks is on his way back.


    I wonder if Defoe is going to be assistant manager or a coach. He could certainly help with finishing skills!

    Clare and Inniss are mixed race. You did a big list of white and mixed race players who aren't lazy and two black ones who apparently are. Don't you see how bad that looks? 
    It looks quite bad that you see their colour as the issue with his post when in reality it's more about their displays. No insinuation was made regards their ethnic backgrounds being anything to do with it. 

    You're the only one seeing colour here mate and I could argue that maybe you're the one coming across as racist for suggesting it is just because they're black?
    Exactly - Keith Jones was one of the most hard working players we ever had - same with Pritchard - doesn't enter my head what colour players are although i was conscious that somebiody would misread something into it - in actual fact, i think the accusation back in the day was that black players didn't perform so well in the cold weather, not that they were lazy so i think Leuth is harbouring some racist thoughts of his own here and needs to correct himself.   
  • Way I see it, if we sign 100 injury prone players we must be able to have a good XI out there at all time.
  • Really hope people don’t whine when chuks can’t play 90 mins, then gets injured and is out for weeks. We’re getting our pants pulled down with this one.
  • anyway ..  as ever, welcome back Chuks and all the best during your time with us

    My question is, " why his Bowyer selling him and why , when he refused to sign for us in the Summer us he now returned or returning "?
    It matters really because something isn't right. He apparently had lots of options in the summer. Now he has only us. 
    Perhaps he hasn't got to do a medical with us ?
    Do you not think JJ and SG weighed all this up before parting with 300k?  Or should we pass this info onto them?  

    And this is football, circumstances change rapidly, Chuks was in demand cos he scored loads of goals under limited minutes, so far this season in a higher level it’s not quite happening, we need a forward, they need some dosh, everyone’s happy (those relevant to the negotiations “).

    He wanted a chance in the Championship and it didn’t work out. Not a problem for me.

    Glad he is coming home. Maybe he actually liked it here.

    This. Leko doesn't fit in to our system now and will get less game time if chucks comes back. 
  • Anekes early career was thrown up in the air when Birmingham signed Troy Deeney. 

    Also, due to people like Tracey Leaburn, people like coming back here i.e Cullen & Leko

    all very cosy, BUT we want players who still have the will to succeed and want to play for us, not ones who come back for a cuddle and a chat with Tracey, however nice that might be ((:>)

    Personally I’d have given Tracey the job over Jackson.
    Haha Jackson is a reason of course but no denying this club really cares about anyone who works here, in any of capacity. 
  • I mean, glad he is coming back as I have always rated him but that is woeful business to lose him for nothing, throw a season away for lack of striking options then sign him back for £300K 6m later.
    Was Roddy the reason we lost him I wonder (probably not but a good conspiracy theory anyway).
  • I do wonder what other, if any, 'decent' strikers were available for 300K .. anyway, there must be a good mutual liking between JJ and Chuks and that should be a very positive thing .. all the best Chuks
  • I'm conflicted by this signing 

    On a positive - he's a good player, proven in League One and should settle straight in

    On a negative - We know he's injury prone, we're paying 300k for a player got for free and then lost for free and we have doubts about whether he can play from the start

    Is this really the influence of this stupid Black Box? it's said to have data on thousands of players and the best it could show us is to re-sign an old, injury prone player. What is this ownership and transfer committee up to... seems to be a complete shambles

    Oh well welcome back Chuks and good luck... you'll likely need it!
