Fordy62 Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Sometimes people raise a topic on another thread that deserves a thread in its own right. I'm not going to give that person any credit, it's his own stupid fault and I'm going to retain all the glory and credit for the creation of this magnificent talking point... so what would you expect Tomlin to cost in wages and transfer fee? i would suggest that his value has gone down since joining Bournemouth and we should be looking in the region of 1.5-2m. His wages... I suspect we'll be talking 20k p/w. What do you think? @ChippenhamRed any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fat Controller Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 The price of Tomlin.... Is worth paying. If we were willing to pay £9m for Gray then £2m + wages for Tomlin should be absolutely fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveybadger Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Think you're optimistic on cost as he is a proven top drawer championship schemer, so £3.5-4. Wages i agree with. But the big problem for me is half a dozen other sides in this league will be after him, with frankly more chance of promotion next season. Even with his links to us i fear he will be playing at AG next season, just against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Seems to like it here, but will come down to wages I would think. If he has attracted the interest of any of those on parachute payments, or even lower premier sides, it will be almost impossible for us to win out I would think. Love for him to stay. If we are lets say a mid table team next year, he is the kind of player that still keeps you wanting to go and watch him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenkibby. Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 I think it all depends on what Tomlin wants to do. Reckon he will be here next season if he wants to stay. Can see us matching any offer from other championship sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samo II Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 He's a rare talent, and one that we have all seen can lift this side. Must be responsible for ten goals since his arrival, in terms of assists and his own strikes, and it is also without doubt that having a threat like him marauding around have opened up space for the likes of Kodjia to exploit. Yes; he'll cost us big money. But I doubt we could find a player with the similar kind of impact without spending serious cash, so why not splash out on someone we know fits with our team.

Northern Red Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 If we're serious about doing something in this league then he's the calibre of player that we must sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 One thing we will be able to offer is pretty much guaranteed football which he probably wouldn`t be as certain of elsewhere. That and the fact that he feeds off the crowd and is already a hero at AG will hopefully swing it for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 One thing is for certain, he looks like he is truly enjoying himself here. No matter who comes in for him, we will have that going for us. In my opinion, if he's playing in the championship next season, it'll be with us. That's just based on how happy he looks.

Chappers Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 We offer a fair and reasonable fee, and wages are realistic according to ability, affordability and wage structure. Hopefully a deal can be done, but we need to keep it real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MelksRed Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 I completely concur.....We need this bloke....He's a great play maker, can find the net when under pressure, never stops chasing the ball and best of all the ball just sticks to his feet....almost as if he's super glued the bugger on!

JamesBCFC Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 A Frenchman who scores 20 in his debut season; 2 million (plus add ons). A goal scoring centre back; 300k. Lee Tomlin; Priceless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderbeans Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 On a side note, if Newcastle stay up which I think they will, I can see Aarons being a realistic loan prospect next season or even a free if he doesn't sign a new contract with them. Him, tomlin and kodjia in a front 3 would be quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallaceboy Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 If Lee Tomlin is to become a Bristol city player on a permanent basis in the summer.I shall be rather excited. get that boy signed on.he's worth every penny.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charliesboots Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Influential since his arrival and a player we have to sign if we want to be serious about competing in the Championship. If personal terms can be reached then the fee we pay as far as I'm concerned is irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like LJ is happy to build team around him from his RB interview tonight. I reckon the fact that he'd get game time for us might swing it. I'm not sure every manager would be prepared to accommodate him. Optimistic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
