The money being quoted for players in this article is mad. Bellamy £20 mill, Defoe £24 million. Come on get real. If these prices are to be believed then RSC is a bargain if the release clause is in place. If it is not then Rovers should be asking £30 million!

Nicko gets a mention as well!

insider knowledge from a City Steward says that City do not want to pay £18m or anywhere near that for RSC. They have allegedly offered only £12m payable over 3 years and that was the last bid on the table.

City have bid for Defoe believed to be £18m up front and they have bid for Bridge £7m.

They are also believed to have bid for a left back and it is NOT Warnock possibly NZogbia from NUFC.

They have also been quoted £19m for Bentley which pays off his signing on fee at Spurs !!

I hope City take Bentley for £19m - Rovers will get the balance of the full £17m on the nail I believe.

remember the poncing posers of City said they'd bid £12m for RSC in the summer and the actual written offer did not amount to £8m last summer.

How does that work? Did we sell him with a sell-on clause? An extra £7 million in our coffers without losing a player would be huge.

I believe that if a player gets sold on whilst cash is still outstanding to the club who previously sold him, it is common for the first selling club to require all outstandings to them to be settled first.

But surely that £7 million or so would still need to be paid to Arsenal? Whose coffers would that come out of?

That got settled (if it was that much) I believe out of the first tranche from Spuds.

Rovers are probably due half the £15m plus the £2m booster to £17m if Spurs sell Bentley now.

the word possibly says it all, he wasnt sure but thought it was Nzogbia unless he is wanted for a midfield slot on the left ??

It'd be nice to be able to afford to bid on a few players for one position. :(
