    According to Internet newsnow site. Probably get more money than we are prepared to spend.I wonder if Dike due back from injury soon for West Brom?

    I really think the WBA fans would be disappointed with this signing, unless he was to be an "impact sub". That might work for him / them.

    What I'll miss most about Devante Cole, is his ability to make every first touch he ever had, roll up his body and go over his shoulder.

    It's a very particular skill I've never seen anyone else do.

    Not a particularly useful one mind, but a skill nonetheless.

    One of the worst places he could go IMHO , not the most patient fans in the world, and quick to make their feelings known.

    He's going there as 3rd or 4th choice striker, virtually no game time, but more than we paid him. Poor career choice, but a short term fix for a bloke short on offers. He'll be bottom of L2 or non league for his next move. Another one proving the grass ain't greener.

    I tend to agree. Did OK in League1 but will struggle with strength and pace of championship defenders I think. We shall see..

    A good move for him. Probably doubled his money and will play maybe once a month.

    Good luck to him. Way better than we've already got or will get in this season.

    good payout for him and at this stage of his career he should take the most money he can get. Not sure he is up to that level though

    Some Salty comments the guy did well for us got himself a good move, some people always seem bitter.

    Player leaves = good riddance

    Twitter has always been a sewer at the best of times. Then factor in the number of functioning brain cells present in many of our fans, and you've got a recipe for disaster.

    Thought he’d get one of the promoted teams, was leaning towards Pompey.

    Thats a great deal for him for him to get a contract at a team that should be wanting to be involved in the playoff mix. Probably got a decent contract but can’t see him getting many minutes. Probably be out on loan to a league 1 side come February next year.
