I heard it was that we'd give £35 + Turnbull to make up the difference.

I think whoever is buying him asked MR if he had any footage of him playing? MR just sent that clearance from 6 different camera angles and said yeah, he's really good.

I might be wrong, but I thought MR was really worried about the state of the finances and facing the prospect of having to sell. However, If we can get him off the wage that might reduce the pressure. I'm not sure if it gives MR freed up funds to bring someone else in.....but this could certainly help us keep one of our better players.

Get Kyel Reid out too and it'll be a massive help. Gotta be 2 of our highest earners

Unfortunately 1 solid 90 minutes in 46 appearances isn't enough to wipe away some of his horror displays he gave over 9 months.
It's fair to say this was a bad signing.

Got to be Blackburn as Mowbray liked him

Don't understand all the hate towards Jordan, I thought he was decent centre back in a very very average/shit team. Didn't have the luxury of Doyle/Kelly shielding in front of him.
YEs was outstanding in both the Semi final and final of Checkatrade.
He will end up playing at a very decent standard. Possibly higher level than McDonald ever will. Although I hope not. I personally wish 99% of all ex Coventry players the best of luck in their futures.
Apart from of course Craig Bellamy.

He is moving on a free transfer and we are putting in a sell on clause...

But at the time most people thought he was a good signing. Transfers are always 50/50 it seems even when you pay money. Frees 30/70 and out of contract 10/90. The second figure being the shit odds.

Swap for Samuels dog would be a good deal

He came into a fast sinking ship. When he arrived we were already in bottom 4 and hadn't won in our first 5/6 games.

Would be great to get Reid and Turnbull off the wages though

I forget what he was like the only thing that comes to mind was he couldn’t kick it far and wasn’t brilliant in the air or brave but excellent otherwise

Stevo have to disagree with you there. Seems like Jordan Turnbull been made a huge scapegoat for our performances or lack of last last year.
There was shocking performances all over the pitch last year.

When you look at players like burge I wouldn’t say he has improved much just found his well would turnbull have done the same?

Ouch....
managers reach there sell by date. His time has come it seems. Had a good 12/13+ years as a L1/L2 firefighter manager with unattractive but effective football.
Don't think we need to go over old ground here.

Well he has played 19 games this season at a higher level than us. Rumour is off to Northampton. He was a disappointment here but not to say he won't go on to better things?

Listen, Jordan.
What you think of yourself is miles away from how the fans see you. You, along with Kyle Reid, played one decent 90mins of football over the whole season and played a part in our relegation, you then jumped shipped to become part of the worst defence in one of the worst league's in the country. If you can't cut it in Scotland then let's just face it, you ain't got it (Kevin Kyle looked good in Scotland ffs).
For Wembley I'll say thank you. Other than that? Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

The problem is though I think we paid a fair slug of cash for him and paid a large wage as well.
He wasn’t that bad no and will have a better career than McDonald who hasn’t the pace for anything above league 2

Cant blame Slade fully either what about Mark Venus and Mowbray. anyway lets not go over old ground.
YEs this is good news in the scheme of things.

Completely agree, although I think McDonald can play at League one but will need a quick centre back alongside to compliment him.
HE has great attributes Concrete Rod rate him highly. But Davies and Willis have potential to play higher level.
