It wouldn't bother me if we sold him but £750,000 you're having a laugh,award him his contract and forget about Walker.

The local paper with the story has just the 1 comment.

 

you would have thought we've got a very good advantage on getting his signature having previously worked with our management. Looks a good player and cheap too.

 

I reckon he speaks for the rest of the Forest fans.

Rangers ready to sell McKay for £750,000 according to the local Nottingham paper.

 

That's a ridiculously low sum

So McKay is worth 750K but Walker a million and Motherwell just put a million price tag on one of theirs. We have the cheapest team in the league.

Good player who childishly downs tools when his boss leaves...maybe that reflects his value.

Players are only worth what another club will pay for them, remains to be seen what we pay for some of our targets if we get them at all.

Maybe so. At the end of the day, much like we have put a value on Walker, Hearts have a different valuation. Same goes for Barrie. At the end of the day, we'll meet in the middle - if at all.

BTW, we apparently played a closed door 2 x 30 mins bounce game against Raith Rovers today, winning 3-0 with Morelos, Hardie, and Windass on the scoresheet. Pena, Herrera, Alnwick, Rossiter and some others played, with Windass apparently the most lively.

Or another way to look at it is worth what the parent club will let them go for. And we would be foolish to let him go for 750K unless I suppose the most likely alternative scenario is he signs a pre contract in January and goes for free.
