Naylor's been NOWHERE on this.

Afternoon nap.

He speaks. To say nothing.

£12M sends us away completely.

Why? Eminently affordable by us. So an acceptable starting point for a negotiation. Now they're THINKING about what it would take to sell him, ACTUALLY selling him isn't such a leap anymore.

£12M sends us away completely.

That £12M is made up by some kids on twitter.
Rest assured, they have not spoken to Wigan and do not know what Wigan actually value him at.

Says a deal is unlikely now before 11pm, but a bid was rejected.

I couldn't afford more than about £85 and I'm not sure what I'd do with him

Get him to serve wine and nibbles to your guests. While he's topless of course.

'Are believed to have made a bid overnight'.

Something he flatly denied earlier, having contacted his 'Wigan source'.

'Are believed to have made a bid overnight'.

Something he flatly denied earlier, having contacted his 'Wigan source'.

And the Wigan source is now saying we 've had a second bid rejected (see my last post #166)

He reckons £7-8 million minimum, so the £12 million figure guestimate value probably isn't far off.

Maybe. But that's the key word anyway.

I reckon a final bid being made of £7m with add ons will be sent to Wigan around 7pm - any later and your risking not getting a deal done. Can't imagine any other alternatives being worked on, we would have heard about them by now.

That's roughly where i'd end up as well in terms of valuation - any more than £8m and you're just lining their pockets.

However, this is easy for me to say as it's not my money. I only have Haribos at the moment.

Andy Naylors answer to the above. Sounds like a game of poker to me.

Seems like he is not getting full story. We were pretty much told no more business....then this happens overnight which is generally denied by AN, then second bid and again not much from AN... obviously we are very interested or we would not be submitting big bids..question should be how far will we go...

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Also, this so late, what about medicals? We know how fastidious we are about medicals on new players, just seems too short notice?

 

[RM-Taylor]

Do we really want to pay upto £7m for someone to come in and be 4th choice midfielder, not make the bench and then be sold for less than half of that a year or so later? Still a definite NO from me

I am still sticking with we will sign him for around 8 million and then loan him straight back, medical can be done by any number of teams up north with very good reputations he does not need to come down here.

The club are obviously trying to make one last signing and at this stage they are not going to be giving Naylor any titbits, he knows as much as the rest of us.

Would he be 4th choice midfielder, or would perhaps he be the backup to Gross? Considering we don't have anyone naturally to assume that role...I know Kayal/March could but it's not their primary role.
