There is no way Sinclair gets 60k. I actually think he would be a key player in the championship and I'm glad we're holding firm. Too many times we give players away and I think £6m is a fair asking price for a striker.


Based on his performances in the championship for Swansea (admittedly a few years back) Sinclair is one of the players I would rather keep.

Gabby is our clown prince and Nzog was signed for bucket loads and was though of as a decent signing at the time
That may have been your view of NZog at the time; it certainly wasn't mine ....

Quite a few thought he was a decent signing at the time in fairness. I hadn't seen a lot of him but he was dreadful.

When we consider new players I hope we get ones with nice, simple common names.  It always takes me at least three attempts to write N'Zogbia's name correctly.  Also names predictive spelling does not get its knickers in a twist about.  I have spent all day on Off Topic attacking Nigel Garage.  Nice ordinary names.  Green would be a good one.

Having watched him closely in the last game aginst the Geordies I can safely say that anything above £100k as a transfer fee would be too much. Awful player. Bet he doesn't enjoy playing football. Stealing a living

Yet under Sherwood he was one of the better performers and there were plenty on here pleased when his loan became permanent. I don't think too much can be read into performances under Black.

Been linked with Chris Gunter.

Would be in the Elphick mode, good attitude and dependable on the pitch. We're being linked to a few Reading players probably down to Clarke being here.

Also linked to Kane Hemmings who plays for Dundee...pretty sure he was at Tamworth a few years back?

As a fan of Welsh football, I think a move for Gunter would be a decent one.  Got a big move to Spurs when he was young, but didn't quite work out for him and he somewhat had to rebuild his career.  Still only 26 I think.  Was excellent in the qualifying campaign for Wales and has done well in the tournament so far.

Not that you can entirely judge him on the Euros but what I've seen of him playing for Wales he's looked solid. As long as he's better than the last fullback we signed from  Reading.

According to The Express and Star we have turned down a bid from Celtic of £1m for Sinclair and unbelievable Crespo is still on our books.

Have I just dreamt Burnley about to offer £6M for Westwood?

Reportedly on £40,000 a week and unsurprisingly his wages may be a stumbling block to any deal going through. £40,000 a week?!!

According to that list in The Star I posted elsewhere, Sinclair's on £35k a week and Westwood's on £30k
