The Irish Mirror have reported the 350k valuation so have referenced their report for that. Can’t say I’ve heard a specific ‘that’ll do it valuation’ more there’s just general confidence an agreement can be reached.
I’ve championed Rob Apter’s potential for a while so great to see Michael Appleton speak so highly of the youngster. Real first team potential there.
