To answer you Stranded, no we don't HAVE to accept it, but we would be extremely foolish not to and would accept it at that value, when we have the bodies in place already to cope with his exit.
Ian Royal Certainly is speculation, but as so often is the case, posted orginally as fact.

There is a difference between claiming to know what a player's wages or contract clauses are, or whether a transfer bid has been made or accepted and saying the club would accept a bid of a certain value. Although it's a close one.

Ian Royal I don't see how that could possibly be the case unless someone makes a public statement.
I'll bow out graciously though, admitting that Deathy has tied me in knots with that one. The git.

IMAMATEOFJOVSKYStranded Yes we could turn it down as we do not need to sell.
I do not want to lose any of our better players, of which Harper is one, unless we have a better replacement lined up.
Exactly where does Harper rate in your list of players then? When you say one of our better players, do you rate him top 3/5?? - if Harper went do you really think we would notice the difference in performance of team? He's good off the pitch - not so much on it

It would be a blow, but one we could afford to take for £7m and could actually lead to us developing a slightly new formation/tactic, which I think we'll need to do anyway if we go up.
W_R I didn't mean to suggest hat Tabb is a similar player to Marek, just that from what I've heard, he would need an excellent ball winner next to him, as would Marek. Unfortunately Cisse isn't good enough to be described that ay. At least not yet. Tabb would probably cope marginally better than Marek. But I don't think significantly well enough.

You would notice the difference trust me. Murty has said of Harper in the past, "If the Reading team is a car, then Harper is the engine oil - he keeps everything ticking over"

Royal Rother Sometimes the departure of an ever-present is the making of others as it forces them to step up and assume a greater responsibility.
