It's just the usual speculation. How would they possibly know how much we are planing on bidding? As if the club lets anyone know beforehand. Also it says we've been after him for 12 months. We've had two new mangers since then!!
Is he any good? I ain't heard of him to be honest
We must be absolutely mad ....... One million pound for that guy is crazy money
My first instinct was that we shouldn't be looking to spend what is a lot of money by our recent standards on a player who will be 30 in July, but it's encouraging to read how highly the Aberdeen fans rate him. He may not be in the Tony Book class (former Man City captain, and City Assistant Manager I believe, who signed for his first Football League club - Plymouth - at thirty and retired at the age of forty having made over three hundred and twenty appearances), but some players are late developers, perhaps the best of Hayes' career is still to come?
Bid made by Cardiff last night - and rejected by Aberdeen:

Think footballers who look after themselves can mature and play on into the age of 35 at most levels now , this lad may see this a good chance to earn a good buck and secure his future financially , and perhaps force himself into the Irish team who may yet qualify from their group ??
So we put in a low bid, who knows how much it was, you do not put in a bid for what you actually want to pay.
The squad will be far weaker after this transfer window.
