Deal for Washington close

[Hove Ranger]

Was thinking that. Was playing for St Ives 3.5 years ago and Newport 18 months ago!

That said though, Austin & Andrew Gray have made similar rapid progress through the leagues and have both proven very savvy investments, so could be a wise buy.

True mate but neither of these commanded such high fees until they had played championship football

Yeah we pay 3 mill for a league one striker and sell a top proven premier league striker for 4 mill ..... great business that

It's reporting the story from the Mail.

I'd prefer Gayle and Bamford rather than Washington.

Oh right, wasn't knocking you posting it, just don't trust that site.

not worth more than £1.5m

Has that site ever got anything correct, seen so much absolute rubbish linked form there on to this board. What is the site anyway, never click it, looks like it would infect you with a poison.

Same with Vardy

Just seen his record at Peterbrough is 27 goals in 81 apps. Decent return but not worth £3m imo.

[MattyRangers]

£3m is a bit steep for a League 1 striker imo.

Contrary to claims I can assure you talk of #pufc striker, Connor Washington, going to #QPR are wide of the mark
That's from journo on Twitter who called JFH to us early doors. Looks like he's off to Reading. We're probably looking at 34 yr old Italian journeyman striker

Probably right as Reading sold their too goal scorer yesterday
