Wood obviously one, would be interested to know if the other was Botman before Lille hiked their price again.

Got to be overall package of £30m. Even we’re not that stupid.

Dobson seemingly a bullshitter with a long history of this.

Just checked - was actually 9/4 so more in line with what you had.

Got it last night on 888Sport.com

‘Big’ Ryan Fraser to score anytime and Newcastle to win - 9/2.
