    It will be interesting to see if any of the others were ever truly interested and now make a move. As is often the case with these things, it takes one club to make a move before it stirs others into action.
    Hopefully it creates a bidding war, albeit it will unlikely be a large one.

    I would let him go for £6m but ensure there is a 25% clause!

    There is still a chance for other clubs to come into the mix with Burnley understood to have made tentative enquiries, albeit with their valuation of the striker not aligning with what City want.

    A healthy cash offer for Conway could also help the Robins in their pursuit of the Clarets' Scott Twine who is understood to still be a target following his loan spell at Ashton Gate in the second half of last season.

    Weimann training with Blackburn.

    Is it just me, or does anyone else feel he still had something left in his tank for us?
    Absolutely gutted he left - assume it was money - certainly not lack of effort or commitment.
    I can’t imagine that Blackburn would pay him more than we could offer…….
    Great professional - by all accounts great with the youngsters too.

    He was awful come the end-looked lazy and overweight.

    Maybe because sir Nige had told him he wasn’t wanted?

    I believe it was to do with a clause in his contract regarding how many games he played, he had a slack handful before it was triggered, as his contract was up at the end of the season, and being our 2nd highest earner, the board bombed him out.

    I can see lots of clubs thinking we should pay 6 million for him with a 25% sell on. Why wait to get him for peanuts next year.

    NOT

    This seems like good news. Hopefully not as bad as first thought
