Ward - Done Deal (pending medical)

[One Teddy Maybank]

Agree. The money that Bristol City seem to want is well over what I'd value him. Once Ward is signed though, I will relax a bit as he covers the position we are most weak in.

Yes definitely. I really don't see us wasting money on Baldock - the £4m quoted by BCFC is a bit of a joke, and I wouldn't offer much more than a million.

Agreed, there must be better value out there than 4 million for Baldock.

B'llocks !!!!

edit - @ the baldock in team photo

Does it matter ?

He's still a Bristol City player until a deal is struck, whether he appears in this seasons team photo is neither here nor there. I don't see why anyone would think its a factor in whether the player is going to leave or not. He might even play a few games for them this month before arriving here, if we reach an agreement (looks like we're way off that though if they're seriously holding out for £4m)

Why would Ward need a medical?

Why would Ward need a medical?

Insurance purposes. Standard practice before any contract is signed.

 

[daveinprague]

Would imagine its only cursory, as surely they have all his medical details and test results already...

Not necessarily. He wasn't our player.

Something could have happened after the season finished

 

[daveinprague]

Well, as long as he signs...all good..

Only matters in so much that we are not close / due to announce it .
