    O'Brien to Leeds, Watt to the Dogs is my guess. Tuesday might be a busy day.

    Doncaster will crumble in the end so they can bring in their own target.

    Whether we are one of the 2 league clubs interested remains to be seen though. Adams said last week that not a target, so either that was a bluff or Nixon is way off with his comments

    I'm guessing the latter.

    He’s defo not we will be laughing if we get 300k for him. We need to sell a player a year as Rupp no longer puts capital in.

    Not so sure Petrov. I think Nixon has persisted with this rumour for about 3 or 4 different articles now, personally, I think there is something in it

    I have to go against the general consensus and say I find him rather reliable.

    Nobody can be expected to get it right all the time, but he does appear to have good contacts within the game for sure

    As I said on the orient match page yesterday Watt looks deprived of confidence maybe transfer talk is the reason behind it. I will go on record now and say he will play championship football for many a year when he ends up there in the future and if people thinks £300k is his value I guarantee it will be alot more in a few years. Also do wolves have a sell on fee am sure they do so we wouldn't be getting the full amount anyway.

    Ironically Parker has just tweeted no approach for Watt

    You could be right, he is a bit like a bear with a sore head about this one.

    Could all be smoke and mirrors. If the parent club of any of our targets thinks we are in for a windfall, it could push the price up of who we are after

    I suspect a lot of bluffing going on in the next couple of days leading up to the deadline

    Parker is a dancer! Ignore.

    Not saying it will happen but you can’t believe him.

    It's been a long time since we've had a regime who keep transfer targets very close to their chests.
    Nixon,Parker and Raynor will all have to wait to claim an exclusive by the sounds of it.

    For me he can go, songo Sutton Cooke scales and Staunton according to adams that one as well as Evans cash in get a loan player from above and be fine in middle.

    Some Bantams didn't rate Lewis O'Brien and thought he was a bit of a headless chicken. If you watch Watt closely you can see the quality and that would come out at Championship level.
    £300k is probably the best we will get but in today's transfer market I would be disappointed with that personally.

    The bit in the article that makes sense to me is him not being able to drop down without the severance to make up for the drop in wages. Whether he can have enough of an impact and score enough goals to gain a second contract we'll just have to see. Could be one of those who ends up as a decent league 1 striker with the right club or could be in the conference in a year's time.
