Slippin cider Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Signed for Derby from Reading for £2.5M ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithWelch'sTash Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Didn't make the game Saturday so can't comment on that but I think £2.5 million is a lot for a player who at 26 has not done a lot before this season. Has had a good (half) season though; Could be the be the next Michael Ricketts. Bit of a Gamble I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a Gamble I think When you consider he was out of contract at the end of the season, you have to assume that if he'd been under a contract of decent length that Reading would have wanted 5-6m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Not only us that lose out at the last minute then, 2 days ago Sheffield Weds had a bid accepted by Reading for Blackman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slippin cider Posted January 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 One of the Championships leading goal scorers on 13 so he's clearly doing something right....prime example of what we need ....along with 3 or 4 other players of course.

Bit of a Gamble I think Seems reasonable value, contract aside, considering we paid the same for Kodjia who has scored less goals, is the same age and had never played in England before - more of a gamble I'd say.

Bar BS3 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Great! He gets to score against us again this season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londoner Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Worth noting he was valued at 6-7 million. Only reason he has gone for 2.5 is because he is out of contract this summer!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
