they are wothe alot more than £1.5 to us which is the point.
Totally agree but its a lot easier for us as fans to say that. It would be a lot a harder for the board to turn down that sort of offer. |

Well seeing as our best 6/7 players cost well under £1m you could get 4 or 5 top class players at this level for £1.5m.
However thats irrelevant cos i wouldn't sell them at this stage of the transfer window unless its for stupid money (£2m+)
But our best 6/7 players were more or less unproven youngsters knocking about the reserves at the time we bought them. They had little value to the selling club, therefore they cost less. To be serious about promotion we would need proven players that we know will do a job for us. They will cost us muchly. |

Ipswich are a club that we should really look to emulate, it amazes me that a town with a small population of 128,000 get the following they do. They have such a great history for a little place

Maybe, however if it was fitton and not wray i think we may have a diffrent story, im pritty sure wray and the board have learnt from hte mistakes in the past but as you say every player has a price, and would the player want to leave, i think caddis would stay ritchie would go. |

This window is likely to be the real test of Wray's ambition to build success at this club.
Taking the money will be a message that we aren't serious about being anything other than a lower league club forever.
I'm sure it would lead to Paolo leaving sooner than he would otherwise and a real risk of us lingering in league 2 for a sustained period and consequently much smaller gates.
Resisting at this stage would give the opportunity to go straight back up.
Then we will need to extend and improve Caddis, Ferry & Ritchie's contracts or sell them in the summer break with an opportunity to replace and rebuild if necessary.

Gary Rose: has checked into the Caddis and Ritchie rumours and sources in Ipswich suggest that a bid for the pair could well be true |

Urgh, those pesky Adver writers on Twitter are pouring fuel into the fire.
... and now BBC Wilts.

DiCanio would walk if these players were sold without his consent and i can't see him agreeing to it.

Various scenarios to consider. So let's suppose....
1) Ipswich HAVE made an offer.
If so then from a fans perspective the club should come clean. Then hopefully issue a swift rebuttle.
If they say nothing, then they in my minds eye would be considering it.
2) Ipswich have NOT made an offer.
Send out a statement of intent that no offer has not been forth coming and that both Ritchie & Caddis are not for sale at any price.
3) Maintain a dignified silence.
This will lead to rampant speculation and a degree of unrest with the fans, like now only worse.....
The worrying thing for me is if they do sell MR & PC. What does that tell us about the clubs ambitions and more worryingly where would that leave PDC?

Latest from Gary
Ritchie: I am happy here, I am enjoying my football. This is good times at Swindon. I am enjoying my football and long may it continue
Post match comments, not sure if the interest was known then.
