10 million bid from Nice for BBD.

Romano on twitter- as reliable as they come.

Oh well. It was good while it lasted. No way they're getting him for £10m though. 

[JacknOry]

Not enough. 

 

[JacknOry]

My heart sunk when i saw it was romano - a guy with 11 million followers lol.

Its real - just hope this starts a bidding war now with other clubs that were maybe holding out. 

[ItsRoverZ]

10m?  Yeah for his match worn boots 

[Butty]

10m will get his left foot, and after that goal at the weekend even that might be a bit short. 😉 Romano is usually on the money, regardless though we won’t accept that. 15-20 million though and we’ll have no choice but to accept it. 

[Sweaty Gussets]

£10m wouldn't even buy his fine china collection.

[Admiral Nelsen]

Simply not enough. At least five million short.

[JeffRover]

If the offer from Nice gets up to £15 million and the player wants it, we would be silly to squander that amount of money on a player with 12 months left on their contract.

The most important thing though is what happens next. Have any contingency plans been put in place for a scenario that even the most silly of fans could have seen coming?

This is what we will judge Broughton and the club on at the end of the window.

[Polky]

Has to be minimum £15m before we look at accepting an offer. 
 

What is the sell on percentage that Forest are due?

Waggott negotiated it so no doubt the club had its pants pulled down.

He knows alot!

As an aside, on holiday in Menorca and a family just rocked up to the hotel with 2 lads in rovers shirts.

Top work!

Here comes the bidding war! Simply don’t get anymore reliable than Fabrizio. £10million is an insult and I’d tell them to fuck off mind.

Double it and you can sit at the table.

Normally around 15-20% of any profit, not of transfer fee. So if he went for £15million, we’d pocket £13.4million if the case was 20% of profit.

Around the 10-15% mark apparently.

Of profit or total sale value?

[Polky]

Most his tweets have valuations in Euro’s which means it may be a bid of £8.4m rather than £10m…we shouldn’t even respond!

[AJW]

Minimum £15m then let the lad decide , the Leeds rumour won’t go away and maybe the lad wants to play PL and not go abroad either way we need to plan for his exit and get replacements .. yes plural .. lined up !

[Tormund]

As long as all of the money got re invested then I haven’t got a problem with it, if it’s 15m or more. Obviously we’d miss the lad a lot though and don’t want him to go.

[G Somerset Rover]

First concrete bid then - other very reputable journos now jumping on it too. So tough to know how to play this should they add at least another £5 million on. Our recruitment team will really need to earn their corn should BBD go - particularly given our start to the season as it would appear we have another BIG chance this season.

We simply can't feck this up.

profit normally, but obvs I have no idea really....the 10-15% came from Sharpe I think...he said it was much much lower than the 45% sell-on that was the AA deal, basically because we paid a lot up front for BBD so his sell-on was much lower. 

[Ossydave]

Strange one Nice.

Although so was Kasper going there as well I guess.

Rather let him go for nothing than take anything like 10m though tbh.

Definitely not a nice bid 🤣

[Tormund]

French league is poor does he really want to go there? 

[Displaced Rover]

Unless there is a concrete plan (and by that I mean targets already identified just waiting for the money) to reinvest the majority of whatever we get (£15m?) then I’d hold firm. It’s most likely the funds will be used to plug the massive financial black hole, rather than improving the squad. I’d much rather roll the dice, I’m sick of scrapping around in this shit league.
