Bllx. They sell their (injured) 19yr old wunderkind for £25m, they feel our 22yr old is a potential replacement. He has 2 full seasons on contract. We should, as a minimum, take them for 25% of that, plus add ons.

Thomason hasn't played for England U20s though

I wonder why Ian Evatt doesn’t rate him 🤷🏻‍♂️

I dunno where you get that idea

I think hes so poor on his left and cant actually tackle that hes never going very far in the game, but i think evatt really likes him

That pass for the third goal v Lincoln was sublime. Left foot.

I feel like I'm reading a propaganda thread to get Bristol to up a bid here or something, I'm shocked there's interest at all let alone from a Championship club.

The only thing that would ward me from accepting an offer of a couple of hundred grand is the fact it's so close to the end of the window and we'd need a body as replacement. 

But if we could get them to somehow send some of that silly money they've just got our way and get close to 7 figures then I'd drive him down there myself, could comfortably spend a quarter of that fee and find an improvement. 

He's a player with a lot of heart but for me lacks the necessary quality to play regularly for us even at this level, and I don't see how he can improve to the point of being a regular for us and certainly not to a Championship level.

Don't you think that the transfer strategy is data driven and cutthroat?

Sure it's geared to the manager's chosen playing style and ambitions so it necessarily has some bias to that, but I'd have thought that as a general rule if Thomason wasn't up to the mark or a player with better performance data could be found, Thomason would be sold like a shot. He hasn't - yet.

Draw your own conclusions, but IMO that's the cold reality of the club's ambition ATM and sentimentality isn't a part of it.

That post went on far longer than I thought it would 

The telling bit was the reference to rmi cricket 

At least gets to the bottom of his obsession
