Well he wont come from league 2 because Super Sam was the best player in that league! He was also easily our best attacking player in the last 2 attempts we had in league1, and he's much better now than he was then.

So we'd be looking for a better replacement winger/wide player/defender/forward for about 250k. From either non league or league1 or above. Good luck with that one mate!  Grin

The little imp on the right and Jacobs on the left would be fcuking tasty. Work rate, goals and pure class....

Exactly.
Any thought of selling Hoskins is raididculous for the reasons above.
It's only being entertained on here by people embarrassed by the constant negative posts they put in previous years. Let's hope he scores plenty of unimportant goals for us next season.

Feels harsh saying this since he was genuinely fantastic last season, but it's not uncommon for a player to have one stand-out season they never replicate. We've certainly had a few duds that were red hot before joining.

But agree it would only make sense to sell for an absolutely silly offer. Couple hundred grand is nothing in the scheme of things, we'd struggle to find a replacement for that let alone improve on him.

The season ticket money is in. A cynic would say......................but Thomas and Bower still need your support. Sam will therefore stay unless he wants to go.

I certainly wouldn't expect Sam to have another 20-goal season, especially in L1, but he's not a one-season wonder. His scoring rate had already been going up steadily in the last few seasons. He was one of our best players last time in L1 and as has been said on here already, he's a better player now than he was then. I hope and expect him to do well again next season. We should not be thinking of letting him go at all if possible, and certainly not for less than a million. He has plenty of assists as well as his goals. Both are worth money.

Every other fan of other teams who know about him I talk to rate him very highly. They see the highlights of him in games, we see the spurned opportunities as well. The one thing people don’t mention so much is that he always puts himself in the situations for a shot or an assist and that is so valuable regardless of spurning gilt edged chances. Keeper unless it was a silly offer!!!!

He was dreadful the last time he was in L1, as were most of the team, we got relegated.

I can remember when he first signed and I was watching at Bristol Rovers. Before the game started the ntfc bench were all chatting in front of my section. He was eying up my missus at the time ( super hot, how times change). I thought he was a youth teamer and thought you cheeky little s*** (if I was still with her, if Sammy promised me another 20 goals he could have a go no problem!)

We should slap a one million pound price on his head with add ons , if Charlie Goode is worth that then so is Sam. After 8 seasons with us though I just can't see him leaving.

Sam's like a fine wine, maturing with age.

I don't think he was enywhere near dreadful, but I admitt that saying he was one of our better players isn't saying much as I agree we had a poor side last time we were in L1.

Bradford fan’s thought that Appéré was sheer class. They can have him for £500k!
