    If the reports in today's paper are correct, our former keeper might come to regret leaving us
    to join Stoke City. Looks like the Potters have now shut the door on any move for Jack Butland
    and have placed a £25 million price tag on him.

    Manager Nathan Jones has said " anyone who comes in now, would leave us short in replacing Jack.
    Therefore the shut-off time has gone for that."

    Bournemouth and Villa would like to sign him, but won't pay the price demanded. Stoke paid £3.5 million
    for him in 2013 and want £25 million for him because they have to pay Birmingham 20% of any fee they
    recieve for him. Looks as though if Butland stays, Davies could well be warming the bench week in week
    out, which would seriously harm his international chances.

    I don’t think he was ever signed to be number 1. If Butland had left, he’d have been replaced.

    As much as I rated Davies, for us, if you’re a side with aspirations of the play-offs then he’s not good enough.

    That sounds like they don’t see Davies as the answer either if he does leave

    All obvious stuff. Indeed the clue is in the post: 'would leave us short in replacing jack.'
    I don't think there was ever a question he'd be their #1 this coming season, and I don't think he care$ either.

    He will have to get used to bench warming on a regular basis for the first time in a number of years. Lets see how he reacts to that after being used to game time and that the money was worth it.

    12k a week might soften the blow.

    He won't regret the payday. Might regret ending up out of the Wales picture

    True, but a lot of players still tend to get in if they are at a decent club. I think he will still be involved. Hedges for a quick example.

    I’d also say Butland might still go anyway - sometimes clubs use this tactic to get transfers hurried up don’t they.

    It was his own choice - who cares? I don’t!

    Adam did some good stuff for us but you can't blame the lad to try and feather his own nest. Shame though because I think he will regret shifting when we are on the cusp of something great. Possibly!

    Great move for him.... not. Not even included in Stoke City's squad against QPR.

    Forgot about Adam Federici - Davies is 2nd choice at best even if Butland goes. Currently 3rd choice.

    Not even on the bench today. Agent busily trying to negotiate a season-long loan to Newport County to put him on the Wales radar??

    It may well ( a bit) but footballers want to be playing, he's gone from a No1 and captain to possibly a non starter, its bound to hurt

    Genuinely don’t think it will, it’s not a surprise to him that they have the other top class keepers there and I expect not playing was part of contract negotiations. To paraphrase ‘I see so many kids that love being footballers more than they love playing football’
