I'd be delighted with that signing. Especially with a view to a permanent deal. Would take Bannon too.

Has Anichebe gone to Blackburn as well?

Dunno why?

It said yesterday him and Rodwell were both joining Blackburn.

Vice would not betray Bolton this way

Or does it mean that we were actually talking to all these names and refused to come up with the money/market price?

Anything on the striker front? .............anyone?

Yeah. Told you yesterday

So Forestieri is definitely on then? Fair enough - I'd be happy with that.

Nothing to get your knickers in a twist for lusty. To be honest we don't really need him and if that's really his attitude we're better off without him. You know how delicate a dressing room's balance and morale can be and the last thing ours needs is some whining prima donna kid who thinks he's too good to play in the second tier.

Hence my comment.

BOLTON. One or two clubs watching Vela situation. Contract up in summer and no longer a sure starter. Maybe a late offer.

After yesterday's performance, offloading him might become a reality. He's no longer the prospect that he once was and it might be that a decent cash offer could be a bonus for us.

Unless he's going to a foreign club or Scotland, no one can sign him, except on loan. So the best he could do is a championship club.

I wonder if Parky knows that his way of "resting players" only ends up with journalists like Nixon making up stories about players no longer being first choice?

Parky rotates his squad frequently. It's ridiculous to suggest he isn't first call.

If Parky has any sense he'll be back on the bench at Preston.

Possibly. I suspect though he'll still be first pick.

I realise many want to get rid, but the player has to want to go to that club. Other than Leeds, I'm not sure he'd want to go to anywhere in the championship. 

Let's not forget only the other day, Vela was made captain, so I can't see Parky wanting to sell Vela, even if the fans want him out. It is just Parkys squad rotation policy. He hasn't been dropped.

Doubt Parky wants rid, also doubt any clubs would pay a fee for him. Possibly the club trying to trigger some interest so we don’t lose him for nothing.

In the hypothetical situation someone came in, I’d sell - on the proviso that money would actually be used to sign a striker.

I think we should wait and see how he applies himself now he has the captaincy, (really ?), and a family. We know he can play when he wants to, and here's hoping that he finds  a new passion for the game.

We lost £7,000,000 by selling Gary Cahill in January... should have sold him for the full season for £14 million.  Again, if Vela is not going to re-sign with us, take the money and run.

Don’t follow your logic on Madine to be honest.

Can't see how we lost £7million on Madine.

Madine? Observer said Cahill and to be honest he has a point but not in comparison to Vela. In his wildest dreams Vela's never worth more than 7 million anyway. In fact if we got an offer of 1 million plus I'd think hard about it and if it was 2 mil or more I'd rip their hand off. Vela's another one of those who looked so promising in the dev squad but isn't cutting it at 1st team level. I think L1 is honestly where he belongs. I'm all for giving players time but imo Vela's never going to be the player we need.

LPP - I was only making a comparison of how we lost half of what we should have been paid by waiting until the January window.  There was no attempt on my part to compare Vela with Cahill... only the loss of revenue by waiting.  We lose leverage as it gets closer to any of them becoming free agents.  KA is sharp... and will act accordingly (in my humble opinion).

With the loan window closing this week, we need to get at least one striker in, any bets on it not happening?

He'll bring someone nobody's ever heard of in at 5 to midnight on Friday.

That would be too late as its shuts as 5PM doesn't it
