Bit of a strange move for a local lad, but I would guess they probably have more money to throw about than Bradford. Good Championship player and one I would have like to have kept, but that’s sport.

I seem to recall him very nearly signing for them a couple of years ago and it was only really his friendship with Minchella that led to him staying with us.

I'm in two minds about this rumour. If he does go to Fev then he goes down as yet another of our products we've lost and it rather questions whether we're seriously aspiring to do anything other than tread water in the championship. That's not a good look for the club if they want to keep or even attract supporters. On the other hand while he has improved a bit he still has some issues in his game and it's not worth breaking the bank to keep him if we can find a replacement or even if Brown or Sanderson can probably cover just as well.
Best of luck to him if he goes - he's been a steady performer for us for some years.

Unfortunately if we keep producing good juniors they are going to want more money and it’s not possible to keep them all. If Fev are offering more than we are prepared to do then so be it

Pure speculation but let’s say Fev have offered him £50k pa, would this then be a case of ‘outbid in this example is acceptable’ ie they are paying far more than he is worth?
