yes both twiceWere they offered new deals?

That was because they were offered deals by City yonks ago, turned them down and said they were leaving this summer. City accepted that they would not be staying and so haven't renewed those rejected offers. So ,as of the retained list date, there were no (pointless) City contract offers on the table for them.Hartridge and Kite didn’t get a special section on ours despite being offered deals. Listed under ‘players out of contract and departing’ the same as everyone else.
I know this. I was replying to SaintJames in relation to Dan Kemp. Just because he is ‘not retained’ on MK’s list doesn’t mean the club didn’t try and keep him, as with us and those two.That was because they were offered deals by City yonks ago, turned them down and said they were leaving this summer.

Yes but who says their bid was realistic, or that they value him the same as we might do? Didn't Mansfield offer a bid of about £200k for Watkins a couple of months before he was sold for nearly ten times that? Doesn't mean they couldn't afford to go higher, I'd imagine most teams start with a low ball number when out shopping. Plus they might not rate him that highly to go big numbers - we might and might be prepared to pay more.Just to be realistic about the market we are in. Peterborough have had a bid for Altrincham striker Chris Conn-Clarke rejected. If they can't afford him, we have no chance. Posh do love a double barreled striker though..

Peterborough United have seen a bid for Altrincham Town hotshot Chris Conn-Clarke rejected, according to the Mail Online.www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk
MacAntony, the Peterborough chairman said this story is false, when he was talking about it on his podcast. Now, he may well be fibbing, but he basically said don’t believe everything you read.Just to be realistic about the market we are in.

I’m pretty sure he’s said that about every player he’s signed from us and then 48 hours later the deal gets confirmed.MacAntony, the Peterborough chairman said this story is false, when he was talking about it on his podcast.

I know he did with Tom Nichols.I’m pretty sure he’s said that about every player he’s signed from us and then 48 hours later the deal gets confirmed.
The guy is full of crap!
Peteborough will always outbid us in the transfer marketYes but who says their bid was realistic, or that they value him the same as we might do?

So I wouldn't say that that means they can't afford him, nor that we couldn't either.
Depends how badly they want the player.Peteborough will always outbid us in the transfer market
