I thought the same, young goalie with potential, why would anybody slag him off for a good move for him, good luck to the lad, and hope he's a future England keeper.

Without a doubt given confidence to the defenders in front of him too.

A heck of a character as well. Would love to have him back if possible.

Yeah you’re right it’s not his fault if he ends up playing for them Burnley shits. 

Re Trafford, League 1 to Premier League? 

Nah

He's a fool......

The Kompany connection didn’t take him to Anderlecht where he’d have learned quite a lot being taken from his comfort zone etc so I certainly don’t see that connection seeing him jump from League One to Premier League. 

Wish him well but not fussed where he ends up after as he’s made it clear it’s not here. Can’t see him being a rag so keep calm and carry on.

He won't get a better gig (ie consistent 1st team games), than he had here.  Not saying he won't in future and good luck to him, he's a great character, but he's no better currently than whoever else we'll get for next season.  Its not long since we were very keen to keep Fossey and Kioso, but they move on and so do we, and who cares where they are now.

Theres a lot of bolton fans in denial over trafford

Dont get it at all

Hes a good un, very good

He’s good, he ain’t coming back, good luck but don’t care where he goes. it’s like worrying who ya ex is fucking

I’m with @Casino on this one Johnny. I really thought this last couple of months would have changed your mind. You’ve always claimed he’s just done the bread and butter and what’s expected, nothing game changing or outstanding. 

Have you not seen some of his fantastic work and great saves that have won us points, kept us in games and won numerous MOTM performances, especially these last couple of months? 

There’s a very good reason why he won’t be with us, why City will recall him, why Kompany was there watching him and why he’s being linked to playing prem football.

He’s much better than what you give him credit for. Surely these  well connected, professional coaches that have a high opinion of him prove this?

We do have to grow the fck up and be kind to honest players who make an honest decision to move on.

Trafford's not even ours ffs.

Loved to have kept him if we were Championship, but if it's not to be it's not to be. Good luck to him.

... & I do think he's replaceable at his current level.

I don't think so either in England 

I can't see a championship team playing him every week or a prem team giving him the type of game time he needs as there's so much at risk at them levels over here. 

I can see him going to a top euro league where he gets the competitive game time he needs where less £££ is on the line for the club he's at and there less focus. Kind of like Joe Hart saving his career but in reverse. 

Anyway... My son thinks Traff is amazing so he'll do for me.

Kioso is at Rotherham, I looked it up earlier as Yoof asked was he still at Luton. But you are right I was not bothered.

Fossey is at Standard Liege , done well for himself. 

Excellent goalkeeper yes but we move on

IE has a task on his hands good goalkeepers are hard to come by crellin & Dixon tells you that

Absolutely. Hopefully 2 games left then let’s worry about who’s next, he’s moving on and so should we. Fwiw I think he’s a prem keeper in the making.

I wish nothing but success for Traff and Bradley, wherever they end up.

We've been great for each other. Cant ask for more than that

Have a plus 1.

If they were our players rather than loans we would have had a job on our hands keeping hold of them. We would probably have let traf go to someone like Leeds for 1 million and a summer friendly.

I think both players have been excellent for us and wish them well
