2 bids for strikers

Rob Staton on Twitter:

"Gary Megson confirms 2 bids for strikers were posted yesterday. Both players in last year of contracts. Megson says one will be signed #SWFC"

"I asked Megson directly about Le Fondre. He said not fair to mention names but do have two bids for strikers in last year of contract. 2+2=4"

Names being rumoured aren't particularly owt new: ALF, Cody MacDonald, Shaun Miller, Matt Tubbs

It could go another week but we will probably get one of ALF, Mellor or McDonald. I still think that Preston want to get Mellor off the wage bill.

There you go, 100k rising to 400k.

I think I might agree with Tony Stewart, that is a bit of a pi** take TBH!

I read that too, personally 100k + add ons is a bit frifty if you ask me, even for a guy in his final year of his contract. I think 250k with another 100k depending on promotion and given them a choice of JOC, Modeste or D Jones sounds better (if they are mad enough to take any of those three )

sorry meant to put another 250k depending in promotion not 100k

There is no point letting Modest go. He doesn't take a massive wage and could develop into a decent player.

I would let D Jones leave but he wouldn't go to Rotherham.

Jones won't move to Rotherham.
Modest will never be a L1 standard player.
JOC has never been a L1 standard player.

Agreed
Give him a chance
He's played at Championship for most of his career.

Heard a rumour on the grape-vine that one of the strikers we are in for is Sean Rigg of Port Vale. No idea how substantial this is, anyone else heard anything like this?
