Why would he come here? We couldn't even guarantee him first team football which he's getting at Ipswich 

he would be our best centre back if he came here

ipswich have another year option so effectively a two year contract. Would be happy if we paid for him whatever we get from Flint deal

He would be in competition with the club captain. Unless he was given cast iron guarantees, why would he come? And if he was, what would be do with the captain? Bench?

Pete O'Rourke saying we want Webster from Ipswich as Flint's replacement.

Wanted a quality leader not another young lad - we're never going to progress properly and stop throwing away stupid leads if we don't have some experienced heads. No thank you.

Maybe Sally Webster?

Yeah I'm also wondering if they will even replace Flinty. 

We have Baker and Wright as first choice CB pairing. Vyner and Kelly as cover along with Hegeler. If Bryan leaves maybe someone who is a specialist LB but can cover LCB would be all we want?

Better than Wright and Baker so hope he comes and strengthens us hugely.

Would hope Johnson picks strongest team.  Not sure any players get cast iron guarantees of a starting place

I agree and expect us to sign an upcoming player from L1. Jordan Willis being one we are monitoring, for example.

They will want £15m.......

Having only 12 months left on his contract makes NO difference..........

Check out the thread re Bobby for proof of that.......

£15 million I think is ludicrous when I’ve seen others suggest they’d let him go for £3-4 million.

He’s also whilst played a lot of games suffered an injury at the end of last season. Injury prone I don’t know?

I think it would be reasonable that we’d pay similar that of the price we sold Flint.

Pretty sure he can play RB too, with Pisano’s availability record he and Wright might well both be accommodated..

I was being ironic fella - referring to those that believe  WE will get £15m for a player in his last year.

Sky transfers reporting £5m fee agreed with Ipswich and believe he is in Bristol for a medical. 

High fee. But defensively he seems an upgrade on Flint. Obviously he doesn't score goals but he seems a very competent defender.

Ipswich fans seem to really rate him WHEN FIT which is a bit worrying.

Yep. Baker is top class...WHEN FIT. Having two top class defenders would be a coup for us. Perhaps we have to risk things like this for quality and perhaps why we have got a different medical team in?

Ipswich reckons he should be gone for more than £5m and a possibility of being worth a fair bit more in the future.

I know there has been a bit of a meltdown over Flint and Bobby but I think Webster is a very good player, with championship experience and should we get Marriot as a replacement for Bobby thats not bad business either.

So if £5m is to be believed then £17m in for Reid and Flint, £11.5m potentially on Webster and Marriott. 

Seems a lot but possibly saving on wages which too which would be the bigger deal. Just read on their forum someone else reporting fee is 2m which sounds a bit better. Think 3-4m would be fair and about right though it seems they rate him and think he could be a 10-15m prem target if he stays fit

Friend of a a friend is an Ipswich ST holder and he said anything over £2.5m and they would be absolutely laughing.  Just one persons persepctive but at least it’s valid!
