Hoilett

[Mercer]

Sorry if someone has posted elsewhere, however, Nicko reckons on Twitter that Bolton are in for Hoilett and that at the moment, there are no other bidders.

If he went there, that would tell you all you need to know about our club's standing.

Couldn't see it happening and think, if no other club comes in, he'll wait until summer.

[yoda's brother]

i thought somebody said elsewhere that it was liverpool that are after him and they had a meeting in bolton, hence the bolton link ?

[Hekla]

Haha, no chance.

[pick32]

He will demand too much and surely ask for relegation release clause, no point stepping sideways when he already has it good at this club.

And Hoilett's standing perhaps?

If Junior leaves it'll be the last we'll hear of him. Can't blame him though with the state of our club atm. 19 teams in the league are more attractive, sadly. Congratulations Venky's!

[rovers11]

He won't go to Bolton, just as Samba won't go to qpr

[roverandout]

we cant be too sure about that, coyle is respected remember, helped springboard wilshire and sturridge into becoming club regulars and england internationals, if he hates it at rovers so much and theres no other offers then why not??

[Waggy76]

He won't go to Bolton, just as Samba won't go to qpr

Do not be too sure about that .....If the money is right they will go .Both teams have a better chance of survival than us ...

[deryck guyler's spoon]

If Hoilett was as good as he and his Dad think he is the likes of Bolton wouldn't have a chance. As it is he is a poor man's SWP.

As has been mentioned further up the thread if he goes to Bolton it says as much about him as it does about the state of Rovers, in fact it would be quite funny.

Wherever he ends up I doubt that he will be overly missed.

[rovers11]

They won't. Hoillet will see his contract out and wait til summer if nobody decent comes in for him. Samba is paid a lot by rovers, won't be about money for him. He'll join a top club if he does leave

[Rover_Shaun]

Poppycock. Samba isn't getting any younger and he longs for that one big transfer payday. He has longed for it for well over 12 months.

And I'm sure Hoillet won't need a relegation clause if he signs for Liverpool

[LeChuck]

Couldn't see it happening and think, if no other club comes in, he'll wait until summer.

Dead right. No way will Hoilett go to Bolton. If that's the best offer he gets this window then he'll just wait out the next six months and have his pick of a host of clubs in the summer.

[Scott18]

Bolton made a £4m bid in the summer for Hoilett, Rovers rejected and said they wanted at least £8m. That's from Owen Coyle himself. Don't know whether they're interested in him now though.

[Hughesy]

Id be gutted if he joined them!! Dont do it Junior, not after we have spent years on you....dont join a local rival that is no bigger or better.

Bid gone in from #bwfc for junior hoilett. Cheeky. Surely #brfc wouldn't sell best player to relegation rivals. Would they?

[davulsukur]

Be a big indicater of Rovers, Venkys and Junior if we end up flogging him to Bolton.

Can't see it myself, however i couldn't see us bottom of the league with a complete muppet in charge a while back.

[Hughesy]

Hopefully will start an auction for him n push the price up

[Stuart]

This will be a massive indication of the real situation at Rovers.

If Hoilett goes to Bolton it will mean:

1) No bigger clubs want him

2) He would prefer to take a sideways move to get away from Rovers

Hopefully it's just a cheeky bid from Bolton to test Venky's / the banks' resolve, and we have the clout to knock it back.

I'd feel a whole lot better if Venky's had met the deadline for the £10m cash injection...

According to this report, Hoilett submitted transfer request pre Newcastle game:

My phones been a tad warm today with Wanderers fans asking my thoughts. My reaction to the earlier bid during summer was to laugh it off. Not too sure this time, I'm informed they're gonna use the Cahill money, Eddie Davies (Bolton's owner) has ok'd it and claim that Junior is keen to go (Bolton News report I haven't seen).

[cesus]

Don't let the door hit you on the arse on the way out Junior! Very good player on his day, unfortunately for us he has chosen to not have too many "days" for us this season! Joining Bolton would be nothing more than an insult in my eyes.

[Mercer]

Cryer says 'understands Hoilett not interested', however, we all know about initial sounding out that goes on, so, therefore, Hoilett must have expressed an interest if Bolton lodged a formal bid which, at this stage, doesn't seem to have been rejected !

[Dunnfc]

Hearing news that he apparently handed in a transfer request and his dad is in liverpool. Im not ITK or anything just what ive read online...

[DE.]

Tranfser request was apparently rejected, the stuff about Hoilett Sr. being in Liverpool has been doing the rounds on twitter.

We need Spurs or Liverpool (ideally both) to enter the race really so there's at least the chance of a bidding war.
