singe Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 this from Matt Matt Chambers @Matt_Chambers_ 3m3 minutes ago Brighton defender Rob Hunt has signed for #oafc. Three-year deal, which is a statement in itself. Result, methinks. 3 year deal, wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayItLivo Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Good signing. Impressed with the intent of signing players long term. it's what we've been lack for a fair few seasons now, but it's pretty imperative for progression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagger Lee Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 3 year deal !!!! as the bury fans are saying .... all this cash oldham are splashing around is going to end in tears ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Very good, just a couple of keepers and a striker next hopefully. We seem to be keeping down the loanees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpo Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 That's a bloody brilliant signing, and a canny investment. Wonder what we paid for him? Sell on clause involved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlossopLatic Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Brilliant signing really surprised we pulled this one off as a permanent signing thought we would get a loan at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midsblue Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 With the signing of Hunt and rumours on Baxter and another striker, where would you place this pre-season in respect of strongest squad going into a season? For clarity, you can choose any season after the Dowie era ended and we lost or sold off the Moore signings. 2nd to 2007/08 season under Shez purely as we achieved a playoff place? Light years from 12 months ago thank ****! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthonyOAFC Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) The reaction from the Brighton fans say it all really. Cracking signing and only 22 years of age. Nice one. Edited July 13, 2017 by AnthonyOAFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundaryblue80 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) It feels as though the top heavy bigger attendances towards the end to last season has helped give us room for some sensible additions over the summer and to build from. All good so far. Light years away from the past few seasons. Hunt is a steady player with youth on his side to grow even further.

sjk2008 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 BPF will be signed in the coming days barring a disaster of some sorts, so really we just need another ST - maybe it's this lad from Everton - and IMO we could do with a DM and LW. Baxter would just be the icing on the cake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 Yeah, I think it'll be two goalkeepers and a striker still to come in, and maybe another winger/striker as well. Think we're almost there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyPimp Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Very happy with this! He always looked committed when he was on loan which says a lot about him. Even when injured he still attended and celebrated every goal we scored. And to think, this time last year we were checking the back of the sofa to bring in Jamie Reckord.

rudemedic Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) So if a 3 year deal, which seems very likely, we have a defence of Hunt, Gerrard and Clarke contracted for 2 seasons, with the likelihood of Wilson, Dummingham, Stott and Edmundson also being contracted for next season. As they say attacks win games, defences win titles. Edited July 13, 2017 by rudemedic Added Dummingham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely, my hunch is either a case of another dodgy loan, or we've paid off some finance from the stand which has freed outgoings. I just recall that it was not the whole year after the stand was opened but about now we'd start to see some benefit. Well, that's my hunch. I'm just glad of the posittivity.

bozman Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Very good signing given that he was being watched by a few Chamnpionship clubs when he was on loan last season. Interesting that both clubs have described the deal as being "on undisclosed terms" rather than the usual "undisclosed fee". I wonder if it's just a hefty sell on clause rather than a fee ? I'm sure the fact that Corney is very friendly with the Brighton hierarchy will have helped get the deal over the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe only a nominal fee but a buyback clause and a big old sell-on clause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
