Is this the same bid that was rumoured to have been rejected or have we improved our offer?

the optimistic part of me says that why disclose this unless something has been agreed?

isnt the standard operating procedure of the rovers as much secrecy as possible?

is my glass half full? :blush:

I hope that is the case, if Billy doesn't want to leave Sheffield that is an awful commute for him to go to training, however Notingham and Leeds are not too far.....
Let's hope he enjoyed playing for us more than his agent wants to make in fees!

Now then Captain, that's not you who's won that £3.5 million on the lottery is it?

Somebody from Barmby Moor last week, and there can't be that many. Maybe you could buy Billy?

By the way, you are my favourite poster, and always have been, always will be.

Billy that is of course.

Sign up Billy. Two years please. Score 30 next season and we'll let you go to a Premiership club for 3 Million.
