It's such a non statement though, a third club came out of nowhere means nothing. Maybe a third club rang up to enquire about the fee and immediately baulked upon hearing it.
Nothing making it us either. Just feels like a report trying to make things fit to the local club so they can put it on their website, benefitted by the fact that he used to play for us and we've just been taken over.

I'm not sure I'd want us to pay £1m+ for JCH.
He would probably bag 20+ goals this season but his best years are behind him and he'd have little or no sell on value.
If we really did have that sort of money to spend (which I highly doubt), I agree with those suggesting Nombe would be a better signing.

I’ve heard a whisper that JCH is the transfer that we should be excited about. I think it’s actually happening. Totally agree

I listened to the Dmac interview and he sorta mumbles the word lower when referring to the club that have come from nowhere.
Hard to define what that means... lower than the clubs who have enquired... lower than Peterborough...
But I suspect the most sound logic is league 2 club, so I'd guess Wrexham.

I initially thought the fee for a 29 year old could be spent better. However there is one key point on it that sways me somewhat… Signing JCH guarantees you 20 goals this season, and it would probably be enough for an automatic promotion push. Is the championship worth the £1m+ fee alone, regardless of lack of resale value? Perhaps.

Think the Peterborough chairman is trying to pull our pants down ( again) if we pay anything like he’s reportedly asking . Just my opinion.

His last two L1 seasons: 22/23: 26 goals 20/21: 31 goals 20 goals is, imo, pretty pessimistic!
