I don’t know if you’ve noticed but football has become ridiculous.

An inevitable result of Sky’s ‘great for the game’ TV deal. It’s great for players, agents and sofa surfers because earnings and commissions go up, and there are more televised games than ever. But not so much for anyone else.

Kone has started on the bench on numerous occasions this season.

Would be the first time we had a former England U21 manager who had also caretaker managed England since...the last time.

Mr Taylor got us promoted but in a very tepid style. Who can forget that home defeat hanging on to hear that we were promoted!

Worth = The state of the market

Also worth pointing out that Kone is currently outscoring a £15M striker in the same division. Appreciate that Stansfield has a few Championship goals to his name, but are we really accepting that his worth is considerably less than half that of Stansfield?

Not sure why people are shocked by the fee. Luton will have a large pot of money for transfers and he’s their no.1 target. Do some of you not attend games? Kone’s movement off the ball and his physical presence and predatory skills will cope fine in a league up!!

Carsley would be an unbelievable appointment.

The last manager of the England full international men's team at Wycombe Wanderers. Just imagine!

The U21 squad he coached played some great football.

Exactly this.

I haven’t quite arrived in the brave new world where we can turn down six million British pounds for a player. But maybe I’ll get there soon.

I think we *should* keep him, but I also worry that these bids are getting closer to a price the club can't refuse. £6 million is a huge amount of money for any League 1 club, turn that down, and the bids might get bigger. I'm getting worried.
