Growing more surprised by the day that Bristol Rovers still haven't had a bid for him. Barton is talking about £4m plus.

Not suggesting we should get him at all, but it makes the money spent by Cov on Simms seem exceptionally high. I'm just really surprised he's still at Rovers.

I suspect that you have answered your question. AC is not worth £4m. Prior to last season he had scored 50 goals in 220 games at L2 level or non-league.

Similar (not playing style) to Cole Stockton, lower league forwards who have a good season or two later in their careers.

Collins not worth a million.

I like Aaron Collins. Think he is decent little player. Could he play on the championship. Probably. Would he excel: doubtful and nowhere near the evidence to take a £4 million punt.

He's 26 not an upcoming 19 year old. His record at Bristol Rovers is 1 in 3 goals (one season L1 and one season L2). Prior to that in League at FGR he was 1 in 5. He is more than just goals of course. Lots of assists.

I think his next move would be a step up in L1. A Derby or a Peterborough would be ideal. They won't pay that sort of money. His value would be closer to £1 mil with decent and ons.

Good player. Completely disagree putting Collins above Simms. Simms has a much higher ceiling, has scored goals on the Champ and Prem and is much younger so much more re-sale potential over a longer period.

Who do we think McKenna (not you) will partner Greaves with ?

Collins is 26 and has played in L2 for most of his career. Anyone paying £4m for him would need their head testing. We wasted enough money (wages wise) on Pigott.

Like I said in the OP. Not suggesting we go for him. Just surprised no one else has.

His goal and assist output dropped off massively from the New Year.

Hirst for 1.5m and Collins for 4m... I think you have your answer. He's not the next Toney!
