    I wouldn’t say we were even in the running when competing against the other 3 for his signature, unfortunately.

    Yeah the same intent we had for Kieffer Moore.

    Can’t see Blackburn being in for him. He’s very similar to Dack and you wouldn’t be able to play the both of them.

    Preston and Bolton though would be too enticing if their offers are genuine

    Thanks for the heads up - I won't be backing this 'NAG' ........ City will fall at the first hurdle ! :(

    Blackburn - they have Dack so will he replace him or be direct competition?
    Bolton - another struggle ahead and he is too gifted for a long ball manager
    Preston - probably the most likely based on the above.

    Agree with the above comments, he’d be a belting signing but I very much doubt we’ll be anywhere near signing him given the competition!

    I would agree, The other half said that, probably the same time you were typing.

    He might not be guaranteed first team football with the 3 Championship clubs, if he wants guaranteed first team football and a sustained promotion push he may side with our good selves.

    Wonder how much he would cost if he was in contract??? He must be worth around £1m?

    I think the only way we could entice him to continue in League One is offer him a huge bonus if we get promoted to the Championship. And a suitable release clause if we don't do it after one season.

    Being touted as £1.5m on some sites ............ So maybe just half that ?
    Even so ........... Match it or not - City in League 1 are far from the most attractive proposition for the lad.

    Would be a top drawer signing, can't see it. But a 50/1 won going over hurdles for the first time the other day, so it isn't impossible. If the other teams would politely piss off and leave us to it it'd be nice.

    True, we are. But it isn't just about the league we are in. Obviously wages will come into it and again we lack, but a one off bonus for promotion could give us an edge over the others. I think we are the only club that can guarantee him 1st team football as well....maybe Bolton too TBF.

    Look at Dack last summer - he had a pick of clubs but chose Blackburn.

    If he wanted to stay in league 1 he would have just signed a contract at Walsall.

    I hope not, Tawheed ............ I have Walsall to be one of four to go down, next year. More budget cuts.

    Well that's a bit of a nonsense. Higher wages and ambitions are available in League 1 to what he is currently receiving at Walsall.
