Might upset the apple-cart morale-wise, but the player makes sense

He's another Shane

A friend of mine said last week that Brighton wanted Church.

Church plus £1.5 million for CMS could be worth a shot.

:shock:

I really think Church is valued higher than the value most rfc fans give him. Full welsh international and has scored a few goals this season. Plus the Hammond effect

Robson kanu is also a full welsh international.

How much do you think church is worth?

I don't think CMS is worth anything more than a million more than Church, at most.

Reckon he'd do well alongside Rhodes and Doyle up front.

For those doubting the @12cms12 news - you may recall we were the ones telling you we'd signed him when everyone else saying "no chance"...

@laceyval1 it's not a rumour - #readingfc have made an offer for @12CMS12. That doesn't mean he will go of course.

Sounds genuine.

Exciting that we are going after expensive targets.

Disappointed that this means the Sharp deal is probably dead.

But does Brian genuinely not rate Alf?

That said our first XI, and squad would be tasty,

Federici, Griffin, Pearce, Gorkss, Cummings, Kebe, Leigertwood, Karacan, McAnuff, CMS, Roberts , bench Andersen, Harte, Robson-Kanu, Hunt, Alf.... Not to mention Cwyka

Fingers crossed this Russian deal goes through, at 18 months wages and a fee of 2m for Roberts and millions poised to be spent Brian must have asked about 4-5m quid!

Yeah this is an interesting one. Hearing BHA want or at least have wanted Church. CMS he hasn't scored many for Brighton though. I think what adds fuel is Brian was reported to be keen before.

Would be an excellent bit of business. £1.499.999m for CMS and £1 for Church would be superb business.

Well you were on it with Roberts so this is pleasing that we are actively looking for another striker.

18 months at 20k a week plus a fee of about half a million. Guesswork of course.

Quite. Roberts would have been closer to 200K than 2m.
