    Plenty going round today

    Moore’s not playing due to interest from Dirty Leeds (although Stendel said he came out of training because of a back problem following illness). One rumour I heard was we’d had bids from two separate clubs but Leeds was the higher

    We’ve had a 5m bid for Pinnock

    Moncur’s off to Portsmouth in Jan.

    Any more for any more?

    Anyone remember Moore in the championship? Surely that rules out any bids and also Leeds will probably go up.

    Moore for Leeds? I just don't see it as being credible. We all rate him as being important to us in L1 but I wouldn't be alone thinking this is his level. He is not top 6 championship standard.

    We want rumours in not out!

    The one with Moore is definitely a load of rubbish. I imagine he’ll be here until the summer at least. If we go up, then longer.

    5 million for Pinnock is a serious amount of money and I’m not sure we’d reject that. Not sure who would pay that for him though?

    Moncur I can understand. His game time in the last 2 home games speaks volumes for me. Not sure how I feel about George leaving, he is good at running past players and close dribbling but he’s never really done it on a consistent basis for us and his end product is often lacking.

    Can't see any top 6 championship team wanting moore he is very valuable to us but at this moment in time he isn't a top half championship striker. Wouldn't be surprised at a rotherham or Preston but could they afford him he still has 2 and half years left on his contract so we would demand a decent fee. I expect pinnock will attract championship teams but again we would demand a good fee.

    It would be a shame I feel if he were to leave and it would worry me if he were to go to a promotion rival like Portsmouth. That's the kind of move that would be likely to bite us on the arse.

    It would be a frustration if he were to leave because we've never seen the best of him consistently but there's a player in there.

    Moore was at the game today.

    Can’t see any first teamers leaving in January. Surely we’ve learned our lessons after Hill & Heckingbottom

    People who sit near us were saying Moncur is going to Portsmouth.

    If that is true then he is going. We won't turn that down.

    Will give us an indication of what the new owners intentions are if we sell a few.

    I can believe the Moncur one. He must think his days are numbered if Hedges and Brown are getting on the pitch ahead of him.

    Moore was in the Family Stand concourse at half time, signing autographs. Wonder if anyone asked him? Leeds seems like a silly fit to me.

    Kenny Jackett wants a number 10 to play in the hole behind their lone front man.

    If we sell him to what will end up being a promotion rival we need decent money for him.

    I would wager he’s a hit in that role for them. Plenty of goals and assists.

    Wonder if that’s why they are in front of him?

    Yeah it definitely seems like it could come back to bite us. And didn’t Pompey not want to sell us Chaplin as we are their league rivals? I guess the contract situation with Moncur puts a bit of pressure on us to sell.

    I feel like he needs to “apply” himself a bit more as I agree that there is a player in there. There’s a player that can turn a game on it’s head in an instant but there’s just no consistency. It’s been a shame for us and it’s a shame for him really. If he’d have applied himself he could’ve made a very good championship player I think.

    I'd imagine so. Shame as on his day, he's a fantastic player.
