DuncanEwart Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 His progression has been a joy to watch. When you think of how raw he looked during his first spell on loan here (albeit in a poor side) to the player he is today. We are lucky to have him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also didn’t help that he was largely played out of position but the potential was always there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordon4418 Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 seems sense has finally prevailed at Oxford: Oxford United will not be pursuing a deal to bring Kilmarnock defender Stuart Findlay to the Kassam Stadium as Karl Robinson admits defeat in his hunt. The Witney Gazette reports that Robinson has now moved on to another target after seeing the value of the 23-year-old rise to a level he feels is too rich for the U’s. In fact, Robinson believes that the defender, who helped Kilmarnock to a Europa League spot last season, is now out of reach of any club in League One. “We’ve put a bid in for another centre back,” confirmed the former MK Dons boss. “The Findlay one is out of our reach in some ways, so we withdraw from that. We were willing to put a very substantial bid in, but we hear it’s gone above and beyond that. “I don’t think anyone in League One could afford Findlay.” https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/oxford-united-cool-interest-in-23-year-old-target/ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkG Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 ‘In some ways’ Yep. In transfer fee and wages ways. He had a cheek going public. And is daft if he thinks SF hearing the name Oxford will have him punching down AA’s door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young quality centre halfs come at a premium especially those with pace. If Mckenna is valued over 5million then we should at the least be trying to break our record. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems quite honest to me? Certainly when compared with the weasel-ry you get up here every time the SevCo and their journalist pals are trying to unsettle a player. They shouldn’t be publicly talking about another team’s player, in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie1 Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 The Oxford manager seems to have been dipping his toe in the water to see if we would bite , if we had he would have got a bargain and he knows it , we didnt he has lost nothing but gained plaudits from his own fans for ambition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thebigguy68 Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Sheffield Wednesday that were linked with big Fin are trying to prize McKenna from Aberdeen but another bid rejected.

A lot of trust in that. I know clubs from down south have signed players and done medicals at the likes of Ross Hall or local medical facilities. I’ve also heard of cases of them sending players to third party clubs for a medical. Taking the selling clubs word for it is a new one.
