Big thanks to David Nugent, who has either signed or is on the verge of signing for Boro' today for an "undisclosed" fee.
A great bloke, brilliant attitude and not too shabby in front of goal with 59 goals in 180 appearances. Many of them absolute peaches - a deft touch and a good footballing brain.
We will miss you. Hope the Boro' fans get behind you as we did.
Thank you Nuge

Oh bless HGF!
My favourite footballing story of the week.
This is the kind of fan commitment you are leaving behind Nuge. Good luck up North.

Prawn, I'm sure that his positive attitude and no small amount of goals will see him loved up there.
I really hope that he leads Boro in at the KP in the Prem next season so we can show our true appreciation of his efforts while he was with us.

Here's hoping he doesn't wave as we go past !

Yep, very sorry to see Nuge go, he's been first class for us, right from the start.
I hope he's going because he wants more football, not because he was squeezed out. We don't yet know where our goals will come from (as opposed to where they should come from, you understand). I'd have hung on to him a bit longer.

Hey TB, I had you down as one of our more positive contributors, I'm sure we'll be ok 👍🏻
Agree, MFR - would have been a super player to wheel out in the cups, and probably a good influence in the dressing room too....

I echo the sentiments on this thread. Has been a top player do us but probably a good time for us to part ways and for him to find a new challenge.
I hope he succeeds and think he will.

Malling - I understand he was told he wasn't needed, his wife made a comment on twitter about it, I agree that maybe a bit more time may have been sensible.
Hallgreen - I am positive and think we'll be fine but Sod's law says he helps Boro get promoted and we get relegated.

I know Nuge has his detractors, but I remember getting excited about his guess who's back tweet

Nuge on the bench today for Boro against Bolton - obviously asked to wear no 35!
Best of luck with your new club and thanks for your valuable contribution.
