I've heard it's 27p and one of those greasy chip butties they shing about.

No one knows what the bid is and we haven't accepted it yet.

I want us to sell if the deal is good for the club and enables the team to be strengthened.

Thomas is a weak link. Poor on the ball. Opposition teams are now playing to this. We can do better and £8m enables us to do it.

I don’t want to sell Rudi but if the bid gets big enough we will.

See that feels like a more accurate cost. Not sure id accept that. Unless we have players lined up better on the ball

surely Our transfer budget isn’t relying on us selling Thomas 2 weeks before the window closes, someone should have been lined up as soon as we sold Binks ?

Reminds me of when we signed Kitching. We were linked with him for the entire summer and only signed him on deadline day. Could see the same happening with Hughes

Particularly whilst he's injured.

We're not going to come out of the window with just Lati and Kitching though, are we. Will all depend what we get in replacements.

When you consider we paid £4m for Kitching from league 1, I think he probably is worth £6m.

Sheff Utd could afford to get either Doyle or the Hull lad, just seems a weird one for them,

To be fair if their bid for Thomas was £5m, and Hull want £10m thats probably why

it’s a great bit of business if we do, just can’t see it, leaves us 1 centre half with 2 weeks to go ?

On the bright side, selling Rudoni for 15 million and Thomas for £6 million means that DK can cover the clubs losses for 3 years, as long as we don’t do anything stupid like signing new players

As bad as some of Bobby’s errors have been, he’s usually a decent player and has the capability of scoring a goal or two unlike a lot of our players. He also seems to have a good attitude, rarely gets injured and has a bit of grit about him. I think he’s pretty decent and I’d be disappointed if we were left with no Binks and no Thomas replacement. Even if we got one replacement we’d still be down a CB, hardly squad development. There’s still time but it’s been a bit of a strange window so far.

Would be nice if the rumours about players leaving were ones we want rid of instead of key players we haven’t replaced.

Understood. It’s clear that we all rate Thomas differently.

I like him as a guy, seems totally committed etc. but if I’m honest my happiest moments watching Bobby have been his late goals not his defensive displays and that can’t be right for a central defender.

I’ve rarely seen Thomas have the sort of match Hughes had against us where he just seemed to read, block, and head every attack.

Something rose to consider … IF there has been a bid and we don’t know for certain …. Clubs rarely bid these days unless the players agent has given them encouragement that his client would be prepared to move there …. It’s not black and white sometimes they do to flush out other offers or an improved contract but If Sheff utd have bid they will have already had discussions with his agent ….

Maybe there are deals we just haven't been able to get over the line?
Jimmy87 said we've had a couple of bids rejected, he didn't specify for which position, but you'd imagine at least one was for a CB.

I don’t have an agenda. I was offering a potential reason why a player might suit one manager more than another ….
