Listening to DC on the Shrewsbury preview Bennett was the first choice and was the player referred to when it was announced the club had just missed out on a player. Obviously DC was able to go back with a better proposition. |

Agent told him that if he waits 5 months he will be able to pocket the fee as a signing on fee. It’s just money.

Maybe - but I don't imagine DC will give him a second go, unless he has already agreed something behind closed doors. If his attitude was that he'd rather stick with little Yeovil than join Rovers, that would annoy DC somewhat! |

He's currently serving a five match ban, so wouldn't be much use to us for a while anyway.

Maybe holding out for a summer move? Maybe a lack of ambition? Maybe just wants to be the big fish in the small pond down there?
We’ll never know. I do fancy DC to never look at the chap again mind. Bid accepted by all parties and he says thanks but no thanks, I hope for his sake he doesn’t regret it.

Or the fee to the club, could go to him in the summer. We probably won’t make the play offs, greedy player, not really, ‘‘tis normal behaviours

He is under 24, so unless he goes abroad i dont think he will be free to anyone.
It seems Bennett was first choice. So unless Khan was an addition to him, we may not have missed out.

He's a Manchester lad, wants to move back home somewhere. Wigan, Luton and Bradford were all rumoured to be interested and Wigan would have been his choice.
Release clause is £100k and he's in contract till June 2019, I believe.
Good player, probably our standout player this season, albeit a disappointing one. As someone has stated, currently serving a five match ban for barging the ref v Chesterfield, an action that saw him banned against his boyhood heroes Man United, also the team he came up through the youth ranks at.
I wouldn't take his turning you down as a snub, it's more of a geographical thing IMO.

His story that he "tripped and fell" was a cock-and-bull story of the highest order and his weak apology to the ref was cringeworthy. His ban was increased from three games to five anyway as it was deemed to have no prospect of success". |

But low release clause in the contract, a la the Snake. suspect he'd prefer to get a deal elsewhere when his stock is on a high. His january led to his stock failing... |
