Brizzol Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 I hope Lansdown was listening to the chants of "sign him up" from the south stand. He's a brilliant player and one I would look forward to seeing next season. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defensive record this season should scare everybody at the club. Signing a player of Tomlins class maybe the indicator to others that we mean business and actually give us serious consideration unlike what happened last summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bournemouth signed Tomlin for £3m, they'll want to recoup their money and more, if they can't, they won't mind paying his wages. They're rich after all, stubborn too. 2 hours ago, Cunnyfunt said: You have to bear in mind he's aged 2 years since Bournemouth bought him though. That alone should decrease any sell on value. 2m is a good price. I'll be over the moon if we sign him permenantly. Fingers crossed. Fromthese two posts, Bournemouth payed £3m for a player they no longer want and didn't cut it in the Prem. I think £2m will do it, maybe less if we pay his contract. Then his wages may come do-able Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Don't know why people are debating this. The transfer fee is irrelevant, it will be affordable. It simply comes down to wages, and how our wage offer compares with the other offers that he will undoubtedly get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Watts Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 BUT.....What if we signed him permanently and he turned out to be Tony Dinning the second???? How disappointing would THAT be? As was said to me today...it takes a special kind of player to make JET look ordinary. That player is Lee Tomlin. Most gifted player we've had on our books since Jacki.

At the end of Blackburn game, tomlin was talking to their centre back was on the big screen. Both esp Blackburn lad were trying to hide their mouths, but I lip read lee saying its a good club. Looks like he was advocating a move here to him, as Blackburn are in disarray. I think he likes it here and wants to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing on there that hasn't been considered, Bournemouth may want to use him as a makeweight for a deal of their own. They're interested in Lewis Cook from Leeds, if they want to offer up Tomlin to help get that over the line there might not be much we or even he could do about it, even if he wants to come here.

As mentioned further up the thread the instability of Leeds may not be good for a player like Tomlin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Leeds could sign a player they had scouted themselves, not just offered to reduce a fee paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redandy Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 If we are really serious about putting a squad together to make an impact on this division then surely we must make Tomlin a permanent signing. What a statement it would make about the club's intentions and determination to put right last year's farce of a transfer window. Unfortunately a failure to sign him would for me suggest that the Board are not prepared to invest sufficiently to progress the club. I think the signing or not of Lee Tomlin is a massive indicator of the clubs intentions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its clearly not cheap to bring them in but both matthews and tomlin fit the bill, if you dont sign them then at least the fan base will know what the aspirations are.
