A Bit of Fun Hull to bid £2 million for Dan Bentley

[SouthUpperShrimper]

This is a friend of a friend rumour, but there may well be some truth in this. I can't see Martin turning this down.

If he does go, I'd rather it was sooner than later so Brown can find a replacement.

There's a bit of noise about such a bid on the Hull board, but nothing too sensible. They have a rather large pot of money now to spend and they are a bit like kids in the sweetie shop.......just like we would be probably.

Just so happens to be in the sports section of that great journalistic read the SUN today.
Read it on the toilet at work so don't blame me for reading it

thought this sort of post might come up soon, it's so laughable:smile:

£2m....include add ons and a loanee or two or our way and I'd accept this all day long!!!

Could run the club for a year on that, maybe invest into the squad for a play off push!!!!

Just like the old Fat Judus days .

 

[HudsonNo1]

That offer with add ons really would be too good to then down I reckon. Wouldn't begrudge any party if it happens at this price

 

[ryansm05]

Don't they have McGreggor who is arguably a Premier League keeper in his own right (linked with Liverpool last summer)? Ideally, if this was to happen, the possibility of a loan back may not be out of the question!

 

[PrawNZ]

We have an England U19s keeper and people want a replacement?! Geez Ted would deffo want out if he doesn't play for Sarfend if/when Bentley goes. Cheers Bentley, you may leave if the money is right then arise Sir Teddy Smith. We can do with 2 keepers + the loan market?

 

[LennySUFC]

I think Ted could do with a season longer, maybe a loan this season back down to league 2 to get some experience playing men's football. However if it's £2m upfront then we can't turn this down, far to much money

 

[OldBlueLady]

Ideally I'd like Ted to have a full season as no 2, but I can't seen us turning down a bid for Bents of that sum. Of course, it is all just rumours at the moment.

 

[KiwiRob]

If Dan Bentley goes, I think Southend should rely on the Smiths.

 

[Another Surrey Shrimper]

If Dan Bentley goes, I think Southend should rely on the Smiths.

They don't even talk. And Morrisey wouldn't play if the ball was leather.

 

[marc2j]

If we don't rely on The Smiths, Heaven Knows We'll Be Miserable Now...

Or something...

 

[Kevin Hogg]

£2M? Sell.

 

[Supa Shrimpa]

£2m is too much to turn down.This Charming Man, Ted Smith will be ok. :winking:

 

[Jedi Shrimper]

Will 2m be enough for Ron? Please, please, please let Ron get what he wants.



I'll get my coat....

 

[superblue24]

Would make a change to substitute "Bentley" in for "Eastwood" when the inevitable phrase crops up in a few months:

"What happened to the Bentley money?!?!?"

 

[Little Blue Rooster]

After hearing this news, if true and the bid is accepted..... Well... Heaven knows I'm miserable now



...COME ON

They lost Steve Harper who was their number 2 over the summer so presumably if Bentley did sign he'd be back-up to McGregor.

It could be that we're all just over-hyping the whole situation and that Bentley's going nowhere.
