Of course it is.

This is a football forum not a laboratory ….

My informed opinion is that he has demonstrated all the behaviours of a player who wants to try his luck elsewhere if the right offer comes along.

I hope I’m wrong.

GIMOC on twitter saying O’Hares been offered a contract he’s not happy with and he has till next week to decide if he wants to sign it

Considering what he was spouting re Hamer, this is probably good news. I expect a contract extension announced before KO tomorrow

Yeah that's fair enough, my response probably read more harshly than I intended so apologies.

I just don't get the sense that he's agitating for a move and I don't think many better options than us are open to him at the moment. We shall see.

That’s absurd money for a League 2 player if it’s anywhere near that.

We have the dosh and nobody else has been linked, can't see any other top end championship side paying that or any league 1 team, has to be us. The account seems like they're usually reliable going off the comments

It is a reliable account but I just can't see us taking a punt on a £2 million quid gamble. Doesn't feel like a Robins type signing.

Surely that would be like 2 million up front and a further 3 million if he scores 86 goals and gets 50 England caps?

I’d be extremely surprised at us spending 5 million.

I can’t see us spending 5m on him, yes he’s scored a lot of goals, but only in the 4th and 5th tiers.

The tweet even says that. Says it's worth £5 million with add ons, goals scored and resale clause

I'm not convinced on Binks in a 4. Looked good in a 3 but if we're now going forward with a 4, I could see why we're looking for another CB

Binks has played 2 games in a back 4.

Both of which we won

Give the guy a chance

I really hope we make his loan permanent. Would be good business and help to further knit this squad together

The club also need to look at how hard and expensive it is to replace players of that quality.

We don’t know what COH’s demands are - if he wants silly money then you have to draw a line and not cave in. It’s too early tell whether or not this is a purple patch or not.

I really rate COH, and his G/A output has improved after his injury. However, I don’t think his overall impact on games is there yet. I hope it isn’t a case of him getting too big for his boots.

You do also have to factor in the cost of replacing him.

Rumour is he wants £25k as that’s what Wright is on. I think it’s worth it TBH. Certainly more than more over three years for Langstaff.

Crikey, tough gig. Maybe we can reserve the discussion of signings for when we make one.

Proper football thread. No politics just football-related bollax about incomings which may or maybe not happen.
