    I'm hoping that Kellior-Dunn doesn't go to Wrexham as it sounds like if that does happen then that will mean Wrexham allow Ryan Hardie to go to Bolton on loan.

    Sorry mate your player valuations are ridiculous . No wonder players like Bobby lose form if people keep telling him he’s worth umpteen million.

    City had loan bid for Bolton's striker John McAtee rejected earler in window. Since then McAtee has forced his way into their starting line up, and we signed Mullin instead.

    Hubby was saying exactly that. “We haven’t had anyone like him since Cullen played”

    Bolton have gone back in for Sam Nombe, £2m the rumoured amount

    I was at Everton vs Wolves when Keane got a red for pulling Tolu. It was pretty innocuous but in the laws it clearly states you can't pull hair. I think because it actually hurts more than pulling a shirt. It is classed as violent conduct too.

    I don’t disagree. I was very surprised when Orient tried to play Pepball against us in that first half.
    We have indeed been sussed out. Everyone now knows we love it when they faff about at the back against us, so they’ve all stopped doing it.

    Which valuation is ridiculous? Stones?

    I'm quoting what they want for him. The owner of York said he wanted over a million at least.

    Bobby is worth a couple of mill, he's scored goals in League 1 and was an outstanding performer in League 2.

    Why do we undervalue players? Our fans would be happy if we sold Bobby for 50p ffs.

    Come on Kev. Have you seen it? It was hardly serious foul play

    We aint dropping £1m on a non league player who is a 1 in 4 striker. We would be utterly mad too.

    Yes I have no issue with hair pulling being a red card offence. Its just that the guys hair was past halfway down his back and that was why he caught his hair. It wasn't an intentional hair pull. I don't think a player should be allowed to play with hair like that without tying it up or something. Imagine going up for a header with him

    Apparently Lee Evans could to be allowed to leave Blackpool, weren't we linked to him before he signed there?

    £1M for a 22 year old striker with a 1 in 3 goal rate for a team flying at the top of the national league?

    Doesn't exactly shout "guaranteed success" to me.

    That's crazy money for someone like him. Zero resale fee if he flops and hasn't exactly set the world on fire anywhere yet at 27.

    Oh just stop the FFS drama it has zero effect on adults . Let’s be truthful , Bobby has been , until V Donny, pretty poor for many months now , has not shown up away from VP ( other than possibly Birmingham last season) and has been subbed off through lack of effect many times by GA this season . Yet here some are saying he’s worth multi million pounds . No wonder the lad seems to be struggling if that weight of expectation is placed on his shoulders by some supporters . If he’s as valuable and in demand as you say where are all the suitors ? They don’t exist.

    Value only becomes high if there are multiple clubs chasing players causing transfer prices to rise . At the moment there’s NO demand , NO speculation and as best anyone knows, NO offers .

    So far from undervaluing players , people are applying common sense . Your numbers are pure fantasy under current form and circumstances.

    Because people have a difference of opinion? Doesn't mean you are demeaning the player because you think he isn't worth the money somebody claims. Personally I don't think he's worth that.

    Aye a few guys on a forum know more about players than the football league and scottish prem scouting networks. I'll take your guys words for it.

    It's more looking at how much other players are going for and have gone for in the past. The age, potential and how many games played etc.

    We'd be daft to not try and get 2m + for Bobby. He's worth what a team wants to pay...
