Hamer and Sheaf the only 2 players we’d struggle to replace from our current squad

We will never get that much, but if it was 10 million for O´Hare and Hamer combined, I would drive them to wherever they need to go myself.

I was told a few weeks ago Leicester are sniffing round O hare. Not sure if this is one of the bids the club are talking about.

He would maybe interest a Norwich or Burnley for the right money but wouldn’t get on Leicester’s bench

If Robins got the money to spend it’s worth selling anyone for £5m. Big if though.

Probably, just talking generally. We likely won’t make the playoffs and won’t be relegated so even if we cash in now and spend in the summer it wouldn’t be that back.

Seriously embarrassing for us to be putting figures out in the public for our own players at this stage of the window. That being said, Hamer barely looked like a £500k player today, let alone £5m.

If any of COH, Hamer or Sheaf leave between now and the 31st we’d be massively weakened for the remainder of the season. Even if we did sign an equally good “oven ready” replacement (we wouldn’t) they’d need to get fit and acclimatise.

Leicester obviously think differently as it wasn't a rumor in a pub or someone's uncle, friends half brother. It came from people who would be involved. But that's not to say a team that you mentioned wouldn't be looking as well.

There is little to zero chance a club has made a “significant bid” for one of our players and the first person to report it is Dave Boddy

No reason for Boddy to put that in the public domain unless prompted just shows the arsehole he is.

Hypothetically £5m is bugger all to them and they could sign him with a view to developing and loaning him out if they wanted. Not like he’d be a £30m outlay with a view to starting straight away. I could believe this rumour.

IF the 2 went for £10 million(which i hope they don't) IMR would not see any of it.The word would be too late for this window and come summer we have to use it to help clear some of the debt.

No championship club would even make an insignificant bid for a parasite like Boddy to be their CEO

I would only sell Hamer if an immediate replacement was lined up and available, John Swift at Reading for example

No chance - Swift's next move will be for big wages!!!

Why is Boddy a parasite ?
Only met the bloke a couple of times, but he seems an affable sort of guy. Is it that you associate him with SISU, so instantly dislike? Curious.

Think you’ve actually summed it up there. Fisher’s PR evaporated so they brought in a bumbler to do the same things but ‘seem alright’ so the fans are less bothered

If we got £5m for BOTH hamer and o’hare I’d run around the CBS in the nip twice before the next home game. No way would any buying club offer £5m for either of those two players.

Fisher made my skin crawl and agitated the fanbase.
Boddy engages with fans
For me, that's a plus, although anybody in that role will be somewhat tarnished working under the shadow of SISU.

And yet, practically they're doing quite similar things. So while I wouldn't use 'parasite', I don't see what makes him better or worse than Tim

The people on here who want to sell our best 2 players even if we were ger £10mill amazes me. In the teams we have played this season I have not seen 1 who matches COH for his industry or Hamer for his skill.We have them both in our team. If 1 or both went there is only 1 way the team would go and that will not be upwards

Personal opinion there but i don't think he performs as well in most games i've seen our pair maintain a very high standard week in week out
