Saw that myself earlier today, would make sense of the £12M increased offer I quoted, yer the same article hints at £8/10M for LO’B and Toffs, surely it should be nearer £15M for the pair ? |

About 5am this morning (don’t ask !) on TalkSport they said Toffolo will join Notts in the next couple of days and would like to be a fly on the wall when he goes into the changing room seeing as he was fouled but the penalty not given in the play off final ! No mention of LO’B though.

Players come and go , it's just part of the game, both always gave 100% so good luck to them .These days all our transfers both in and out are undisclosed, why is that ? |

It’s not that they’ve gone to the PL, it’s who they’ve gone to in the PL, there are 20 PL teams, 18 of them I’d have been happy to wish them Bon Voyage. As for undisclosed it does seem ridiculous that so many are especially when in most cases the papers will say undisclosed but believed to be £X ? |

They can only go to a club that values them sufficiently to make an offer that meets what Huddersfield Town find acceptable. No other club has made an offer for them...not sure how we can force Wolves or Southampton to buy our players if they're not interested or think they're over-priced for what they're likely to bring - and not sure if a club makes an acceptable offer we can turn that down simply because we don't like the other club!!? Plus - assuming Forest are likely to struggle as much as Norwich, Town, Derby etc did in our relegation seasons...we get the added benefit of labelling them "Agent's O'Brien and Toffolo" when they're getting ripped a new one every week ahead of rejoining the Championship in a years time. |

I’m not saying we should force other clubs to buy them, it’s football it’s not like selling your car for example, the bloke that turns up might be a total dickhead but you’re happy to take his money and say Goodbye, this is two of our best players leaving, obviously nobody wanted them to end up down the A62 and mainly due last season and their supreme arrogance I have put Notts on my own personal naughty step. It doesn’t benefit me in anyway and it serves no real purpose but it is what it is. |

Ha, I get where you're coming from - I've definitely been in that mindset in the past.
But, over the last 10 years or so, I've pretty much followed the car/commodity approach.
If someone makes me an offer that meets the value I associate with the car that I brought in for peanuts and I've nurtured it to a top level value - I don't really care if they're going to take that pristine vintage classic and fill it with crisp packets and wash it once every 3 years. Especially as I've just bought a new project car for a few quid thats a bit rough around the edges and I can commit some time to bringing it up to spec nice and shiny and well tuned so some other jerk offers me a load of cash for it.
The players see theirselves in those terms, so makes that as supporters we do. Toffolo didnt sign an extended contract with Town this season that would have made him our highest paid player. Thats how certain in his head he was that he saw the opportunity to 'step up'. Good luck to him. Hope he does well, but I'll also have a wry smile on my face if he disappears without trace.
