Just to let you know an official approach for Britt Assombolonga has been rejected around 3mill

No surprise then after our earlier dealings with Peterborough?

{Ed034's Note - their owner confirmed he would do business with us

Gonna take a lot more then that to get him

I heard somewhere that Peterborough have always been a bit weird with their pricing, is this true?

ps Assombalonga is one of the best names I have ever heard.

So a proven League One/Two striker should fetch more than £3m but two proven Championship youngsters can go for £3.5m each?

I wouldn't be keen on spending £3m on Assombalonga. Is he any better than Callum Wilson or Nahki Wells?

Thank goodness for that. He's not worth £2M let alone £3M. Listen to what the Posh fans think of him. Callum Wilson is a better striker than Assombalonga and I believe he was sold for the amount we have allegedly offered for Assombalonga so I would rather we turned our attention to a better prospect such as Sam Baldock or one if the many talented foreign strikers but our lack of scouting staff is likely to prevent the same (thanks Billy!)

P.S. Just because my username is Forest Grump it doesn't mean that all of my posts will be negative before anyone calls me a pessimist/negative/moaner!

This is complete blag! don't usually attack posts but I have some insight at POSH and it won't happen.

I have been known to be wrong in the past though!!

{Ed034's Note - blag by who??

From tails
#nffc expect to sign a striker tomorrow. Deal close to being completed. Very likely to be Britt Assombalonga. Which would be very impressive
