At £250,000 a big yes please!

Bring him in, keep Ryan Lowe and of course Madine then we need 1 more hungry young striker - someone like Beavon from Wycombe?

What will his wages be like ??

Like others have said, nothing wrong with £250k transfer fee.

But he's on more than twice as much as anyone else in our squad.

People forget the budget includes players wages for the whole season.

I doubt he will be willing to take a pay cut such that he falls into our structure, and I don't think he's worth breaking the bank and the wage structure for.

Ranger has shown some good glimpses - along with a lot of mediocrity IMO.

Glimpses, that is all. Is it enough to want him permanently? Well I don't see him in training, so I can't comment.

I am indifferent to him - ill leave it to Jones.

But ATM I wouldn't offer him a high wage, long term contract.

Define hungry? in this context it means nothing. Are you just saying he's hungry cos he scored a few goals?

And he's 28 I think.

Its probably not good news that Newcastle will sell him. The fee I would imagine would be doable but getting near his wages and a four year contract would be tricky Think for us the lesser risk of a season long loan on subsidised wages would have been the better option

Against Wycombe I would have taken him off at half time.

He was second to every ball, mistimed every header and didn't impress.

He had a better second half and obviously scored.

So, what do I know?

But, I am not over excited about retaining him.

All about opinions I suppose.

Sorry I agree with this - we need someone who is going to make a real difference up front if we are going to try for the playoffs next season.

To be fair he has only just turned 21 - worth a punt at £250k and then we have two hungary young strikers leading us into the Championship.
