It sounds as though Power accepted the bid from the Quatari club but Mass turned it down. So I guess 4.6 million ($7m) is Power's asking price.

A one season wonder aged 27. I think that fee is more than reasonable. bbc football quote a 7 figure fee which is also easily their record transfer fee received.

The first quote I've read that suggested Mass thought about leaving us. Well of course he thought about it! I just hope he can help us to promotion and then leave for a Prem team. He's better than the Championship.

Franchise have got Keith Andrews back. If he's half the player he was in his last spell that's bad news.
His first game is going to be against the 82ers on Saturday and if their recent record of nobbling opponents players is anything to go by they will break his leg or arm because of the dirty way they play like they did against Scunthorpe.

Don't be ridiculous, they are all saints, Cotterill said so so it must be true.

that must be a different Steve Cotterill, the one in that thread sound like a ranting loony who sets his team up to rough up the opposition.

the one at the 82ers clearly doesn't do that, and has done a fine job taking them 'back where they belong' despite a financial handicap of having a smaller budget than Preston, and only losing > £10m a year.

As petty as we are being, I did have a wry smile when I saw Korey Smith booked for a quite deliberate trip on a Fleetwood player last weekend.
