Could be a goer then, he would be a great signing, we need some experience too, it’s a very young squad

Hmmm. Personal reasons.
Don’t imagine the Posh boss / owner will be feeling charitable right now

Yes, this wasn’t a wild or random bid, as was clear to anyone who actually understands how the football business works.
Bet it gets done for half a million on Monday

There's not a chance I'd let a player leave who's so important to staying up. Can't see it happening this window.

Amazing how this thread has gone from "what a waste of time, making low ball offers no better than when the O's were here" when no one really had a clue what was going on, to "might be a goer now that we have a better idea of the full situation"

Theyve just signed Fuchs, so maybe they'l let Norburn fuch off.

Kemp was not bad loan cut short as he was offered a permanent deal.
Grettarson and Mitchell cost nowt and we got a fee for them, again not bad players or they would not have had interested parties.
Williams was a stop gap till we could sign other midfielders and again got a contract elsewhere.
Lubala off field issues
Robson is attracting interest and may yet be needed in midfield.
Casey we do not know enough to judge as to succeed he has to displace Eki.
Moore is a good third keeper.
So in essence you are talking complete bollux

Me too, but if we can get over 4 million for him I think that would do a lot of good.Usually a good sign someone not playing.
I just hope Bowlers plays.

They won’t let him leave for what they paid for him. He’s now a captain in the Championship. Min £500k and they still won’t be happy with the situation. Can’t really blame them tbh

A no brainer if he wants to move back to family in Bolton us or Huddersfield you would think.

He wants the north west, so that kind of gives us an advantage. Is his family still in/around Bolton?

Hypothetically...... If we sell Bowler and get Norburn and Brannagan and Stewart is fit to play, where does that leave Kenny? Where does it leave Connolly?

It leaves Kenny as our number one defensive midfield metronome, obviously, and Connolly trying to break into our defence.

We won't get Brannagan. It will only help us to get Norbury, we played Wintle and Kenny all season so Norbury fits, Stewart great player but as we have seen injury prone. I'd hate it if we sell Bowler, read today that Fulham and Bournemouth are going to bid for him, chance of Premier football next season may tempt him.

Er
Er yeah, i posted that yesterday when news of our bid broke, and have posted other stuff since. They won't want to lose him still, and will hold out for as much as they can get. And there may be higher bids and wage offers.

Your lack of appreciation of Kenny's consistency, reliability and importance is getting embarrassing pal.

Connolly is only really a squad player and with Gretarsson gone he will be cover at CB. Kenny will be fine given Stewart’s record and you need competition for places. You can then play any two from Brannagan, Norburn, Stewart and Dougall.It leaves Kenny as our number one defensive midfield metronome, obviously, and Connolly trying to break into our defence.
The links with Rogers may be just in case we lose Bowler.

Posh forum...
On the basis it is the daily shitstick I'd vote lie, however, I have heard a fair few stories about this re Blackpool from trusted folk so I am minded to be disappointed and find out it's true.
Of course, the management may have been fully aware and Fuchs is his direct replacement.
Really hope it's not true. For me, he's been the signing of the season so far, all though I'll admit I didn't think so at the time.
He's played well, but I think we'll cope just as well without him
He’s been alright but I’m hoping that Fuchs is much, much better. I must admit that I am a little surprised that a championship club would sign him
The fact that Norburn has been one of our better players speaks more about the rest of the team than it does him.

Sorry if it has already been posted, but Peterborough press are saying that he isn't likely to play for them today. Make of that what you will.
