Pretty sure a number of clubs will be in for Freeman. He seems highly rated.
Shitty have made a large offer thats been rejected already for him apparently. |

Zoko just signed a new contract yesterday until the end of the season.
Seems their cup run has enabled them to keep Zoko and I guess Freeman until the season's end. |

Its a tricky one. For example historically Wigan had dreadful attendances but now have a 25k all seater stadium and this season were in Europe. Would we say we are 'bigger' than Wigan still?
I guess there are a number of factors which establish how 'Big' a club is which can be discussed to death.
I have a very simple way of deciding...if the club in question's last major trophy was before ours...you're not a big club. It doesn't follow that the reverse is true, however. |

But what sort of attendance would they get if they went back to L2? Less than us I'd suppose |

Huddersfield just spent 1.5 mil + on Nahki Wells. Will they spend another 1M on Pritch after that?

When was the last time a League One player went for 3 million? Dreamworld pricing.
(Yes, I know, Fabian Delph went for more)

Nick Powell was my first thought. Can't remember how much his deal was, but pretty sure it wasn't 3m. |
