Move completed on sky sports news ticker, can't see it anywhere else though. | |

I expected no less.
Anyway, I honestly don't think of Matty Done as a replacement for Grant. We definitely need another forward.

Two-year deal? Whatever the fee, I hope Dale negotiated a contract with some add-ons. | | | |

It frees up some wages for another player or two.....
Harewood....? | |

The Blackpool Gazette seems confident Grant will be playing for Blackpool in their friendly at Witton Albion tonight.

Sorry to see BG go, as he brought a touch of quality to the squad, but nothing like as disappointed as 4 years ago when Le Fondre was sold to Rotherham (and went on to score 30 goals that season). His going also removes the uncertainty of him not playing through suspension.
But it does leave the squad with only Donnelly as a forward with any sort of scoring record. | | | |

I'll miss his goals, but not the other side to his game, not too bothered about seeing him go. | |

Anyone have a clue for how much? Add ons? | | | |

£200k in first instance my Blackpool source says | |

There is probably some add ons from Scunthorpe so probably not a big a fee for dale but still welcome | | | |

A good move all round really.
Hopefully at least £75,000 as our half of the fee and something similar in wages on top of this, should allow Hilly to get a decent out and out striker.
I feel we have enough cover in the wide area's, hence KH saying that he wouldn't replace Bobby Grant.

I'm sorry to see him go. We'll certainly miss his quality, work rate and seemingly guaranteed sweet left foot curlers from 25 yards!
BUT it was the best for all parties that he moved on. Another guarantee was him missing 5+ games through suspension. The upcoming court case is bad publicity we can do without, especially when I expect a lot of fans would have demanded we sack him if found guilty. He didn't want to be here and that can't have had a positive effect on the squad.
He'll have been among our top earners, so it means more in the budget if Hilly changes his mind on needing more firepower. As things stand, I'd rather the wage was spent on a decent centre half!
Any fee upwards of £150K is good business, even with 50% of that going to Scunthorpe. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Well games against Morecambe have certainly just lost a bit of spice, especially as Redshaw will most probably be injured for the first of them in the coming season. | | | |

Would now like to see an out and out Striker with a bit of physical presence to fill the cog role and maybe an experienced central defender. | |

I'd expect to see three more join before the pool game, two def and an attacker [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Couldn't agree more about the striker. Getting someone decent up front is an absolute must.
Will struggle to score goals otherwise in my opinion. | | | |

Games against morecambe losing spice due to Grant leaving? What have I missed? | |

A few comments from Bobby there. Seems he is as glad he has gone as some of the users on here. Bit of a shameless name drop there too with Stevie G. "He's always there to give me advice"... yeah, bet he has been phoning him a fair bit for some advice on his court case and how to weasel out of a conviction like Stevie G did! | | | |
