We've definitely had a bid accepted but three other clubs want him.

Sorry if fixtures, but does this signal our interest in Marshall is over?

He goes to Watford and Vydra comes to us - seems a logical outcome and probably what Naylor is hinting at with his "one deal leads to another" tweet

No it just means Blackburn & Marshall know the Albion won't be bullied into paying what they think is over the odds.

Smells suspiciously of agent silly beggars again. Won't be remotely interested as being possible unless it happens.

Multiple bids can get accepted by the Club it is then up to the player to work out which deal is best for him of the contracts offered.

I thought 2 bids (Watford's / ours) have been accepted. Can't really criticise the agent (yet)!?

Pozzo family will use Watford to buy him and then loan him to either of their Spanish/Italian teams as an investment for the future...

Different era and division in both cases.

Apologies to [MENTION=717]Hans Kraay[/MENTION] but i don't remember him for his playing ability, more bouncing up and down in front of the goalie.

Hopefully Watford.

So they can then sell us Vydra...

I go along with that however as other clubs are interested he is more likely to move to a club that were not in the relegation area last season

I'd be very happy with that. Elvis could turn out to be the king but Vydra is a proven Championship goalscorer and still only 23.

That's not to say I would want Elvis. If I Can Dream, I'd have them both.

Accepted by the club. A nice bit of business negotiating the amount of ££££ for the player now. With more than one club involved that will do nicely for them I am sure

Where we finished last season will make no difference to Vydra whatsoever.
