Is it bonkers? They signed him for 400k last year and he scored 18 goals last season.

More return on investment at that age there wouldn't be any

The lifespan of any player, let alone a striker, at one club at this level seems to be about 2 years. If so 28 is no obstacle. A two year deal and if we get promoted in either year, we can offload quite easily.
I wonder how well any striker will do as a sole striker, whoever they are. McNulty fed off Max and JCH, but I think I would rather have a hardened pro like Godden to a young tyro like Walker

That would put the fee up to £800k

Was just about to post the same sentiment. Think it was the second to last goal vs Notts County that sold it for me. Very composed finish

Having just looked at last season’s top scorers, it’s noticeable how many have moved this summer to better teams or been promoted. Think we’ve missed the boat striker-wise if we’re looking for proven L1 quality. The only higher scorer within that chart who I’d say would fit our style but also be achievable is Ched Evans, and I know he comes with downsides.
It’s a difficult one. Ideally I wouldn’t be wanting Godden but there’s not much choice. Mind you, it’s rare that our transfers are played out in the press so expect some hot prospect from Serie B to be signed imminently.

Sounds good, but looks like they will need to bid more than 500k If that's already been rejected from others.

The biggest problem is he won’t have service we don’t create anywhere near enough.Until that changes even the legend Kevin Kyle would struggle

Is that going off yesterday’s game? I couldn’t watch it, so I don’t know. But it didn’t sound like we lacked creating chances.
If last seasons anything to go by, it’s not creating chances that’s our problem. It’s sticking them away.

I think last season was similar until Bright came in,Yesterday we created hardly anything pre season we didn’t exactly score bag fulls either.Watching yesterday I just can’t see where the goals are coming from even with a striker we need creativity.

I don’t disagree. I want more creativity.

I think Jobello will offer us creativity once he settles in,
Yesterday was difficult because Southend came to park the bus, and didn’t even try to play until they went behind, and by that time some of our players looked knackered.
Also we didn’t have much pace or movement to drag defenders out of possition,
Hopefully we will sort that out this week.

Just explain, why did we look knackered after 80 min,and they didn’t?

They sat back for large parts and we pressed whenever they got the ball.. Easy to see why they ended up with some energy and we never
We will get fitter and fitter though
There were times last season, long before Bright came in, when we were creating chances for fun.

Nonsense, the problem last year was profligate strikers. Granted we didn't create loads but our strikers were very very wasteful.
McNulty the year previous with a similar if not worse record did more than fine. And I'd say he probably had less support
Yeah, we pressed high for 60 minutes. They barely got out of their half. It was a warm day and it took its toll in the end.

Na not for me I actually don't think he is that good and certainly not worth the financial outlay being quoted!

I am all for getting the lad in, but will be p*sssed off if we let Pboro jerk us around re £££s. Irrelevant that Pompey got turned down, as they've since spent their £££s on Marquis. Offer them a figure, wiyh a 'let us know by then date, otherwise look elsewhere. Might be just be, but can imagine Barry Fry and co messing us about with this.

We should tell them to piss off and offer half of that value take it or leave it - there are so many better players about anyhow
seen him a few times and in my opinion he really is league 2 at best.

Absolutely right. We name a price and date (couple days). They either agree or robins walks away.

Rumours that Peterborough need to sell to be able to bring more in as they are skirting right on the line of FFP

We were pressing high all game and they were sat back. Southend had 1 shot of note in the first half.
We nearly caught them out several times at the back.
