Title: Brede Hangeland deal official - merged topics
Post by: Fernhurst on March 28, 2013, 04:25:02 PM

Oh dear, that's worrying it could mean that Brede had a last minute change of mind as the report was being written but let's hope that the reporter simply stopped for a cuppa before completing the article.
Shouldn't really joke about the matter as it is important to our next couple of seasons.

Maybe there was a spelling mistake in the initial article, so they took it down and are now making the corrections. Just a thought

I wouldn't panic. I can't see any way that it would of gone through to the reporting department unless it was already 100% . It will be an error on their part or they've gone a little early.

Fantastic news for the club and all of us fans. He comes across as a true Fulham player in the traditional sense of the word;a la Haynes,Cohen,etc.

Appears to be a good person and level headed. Proud he's at our club and captain. 049:gif

Well done to the club. Fantastic news. Brede seemed very happy to be staying (and so he should). That's the most important contract wrapped up. Cheeky one year deals for Geogios and Mark? And Diarra if he can stay fit (unlikely)

Very good news, especially with his return to form, as said above a very positive interview. Monday is looking like it could be a very memorable game.

Post by: filham on March 28, 2013, 10:02:57 PM
Great news for a number of reasons.
1. We would have had difficulty finding a replacement.
2. A replacement would have cost us millions.
3. He must be our best ever central defender.
4. He could become our longest serving premiership player.
5. It demonstrate a degree of loyalty.
6. It shows support for the manager.
7. Potential new players may realise if Fulham is good enough for Brede it should do for them.
8.Team spirit should go up a notch for the QPR match.
9. We won't have to live through the summer wondering if Brede will do a Dempsey on us.
10 Brede is a fans hero and we would have been so,so sorry to see him leave.

Assuming he won't be transferred out. Remember that we signed Kelly to a 2 or 3 year contract last summer and then transferred him in January.

Yes indeed. I'll be there too, admiring his skills as ever.

The one concern that remains is as Hatter Don points out....that the contract signed by mutual agreement makes him saleable ...

..but as they say, Let's not spoil today's sunshine with tomorrow's clouds.   049:gif

He may be but we'll at least get some fiscal reward if he is. I highly highly doubt it though, the only circumstance I can envisage is a falling out with Jol. He doesn't seem the type of player to throw his toys out of the pram though.

Fantastic news!

I remember saying during the January window that it might be best to try to sell him as he was playing so poorly and I really didn't think he'd sign on as the story had dragged on for so long.

Now he's back to his best (coincidence that it has happened when being paired with Big Phil?), and when he's playing like he does, Fulham can't really get a better central defender. Absolutely vital that he put pen to paper, well done to everyone and especially Brede!

There were any number of occasions in the last few months, when I feared his imminent departure. It's good to see he'll be around for quite a while still! It's a great start to the Easter weekend, which hopefully will culminate in 3 points from 'Arry & Co.

Happy Easter Brede ... and to you lot too!    078.gif

Great news!

With Brede, Senderos, and Duff signing new deals, it strengthens the foundation of next season's club. Now FFC can go out and add 2-3 quality signings in the summer to strengthen the squad instead of looking to replace departing members. That is the way forward for the club to start moving up the table.

very relieved. he's a legend. any prospective signings will appreciate having a player like that in the back and as an active leader. this could've been a lot messier and i'm glad it was sorted relatively quickly and calmly. Quality man, quality player.

It is of course always possible that another club in need of defender could entice him away but now that he is under contract they will have to pay us big money for him.

Sure, but we signed Kelly to that extension before we had any idea how good Riether would be, and thus before we knew Kelly would be surplus.

Yes, Samba can actually head on frame.
