[Former Labour leader]

Come from one source that is not verified so do not take it as gospel.
Very underwhelmed, like other City fans. Only good thing is we play Bolton in a couple of weeks and he is bound to score if he does sign.

[Barry Shitpeas]

Could do well for us. Not so grainy YouTube footage shows him scoring the type of goals that Zohore doesn’t. And he can head the bloody ball!! He’ll do for me.

Sorry mate, we couldn't get the Messi deal over the line in time.

[Tall Midget]

Didn't score many goals towards the end of 2014.

Hope he gets on with Tomlin.....

10 goals in 88 Championship appearances in his career. £6m doesn't get you a lot these days.

Cardiff City have agreed a fee rising to £6million for Bolton Wanderers striker Gary Madine, HITC Sport understands.

Cardiff have been chasing Madine throughout this month's transfer window and saw their opening two bids rejected by Bolton.

However, with the transfer window set to close on Wednesday Cardiff have come back with an improved offer which could rise to £6million and Bolton have reluctantly accepted it.

I don’t expect Messi mate but 6m for Gary Madine?!?! He’s no better than what we’ve got in reserve.

[Michael Morris]

Bid thought to be worth up to £6m!!!

[Badly Ironed Shirt]

What about FFP?

[jon1959]

The final £4 million is due when we win the Champions League.

What a ****ing disgraceful misuse of funds if this is true. This is peak Cardiff City. Just don't ****ing bother if no one realistic is available. His goalscoring record, or inherent severe lack of, is laughable. We've already got one striker who can hold up the ball and not score, why exactly do we need two? ****ing laughable, Warnock has got desperate here.

Have faith in Warnock! In Neil we trust. IF we do sign Madine, and his goals keep us in the top 6, then we will all be happy

Agree. We often find people writing off signings before they’ve kicked a ball nowadays. Goal scoring strikers are notoriously hard to come by in January. He’s got ten so far this season, if he gets another ten it will have been money well spent. Give the lad a chance. Also I suspect the £6m is bullshit.

I take it you’re not happy about this one then?

[ccfcwelshlad]

We wouldn't be paying anywhere near £6m if this happened!! A chunk would be based on promotion and a chunk on goals, even then I'm not convinced we would be paying a final fee of anywhere near £6m!

Our initial bid was for less than a quarter of the £6m mentioned.

Desperation stage now though. I’d rather go with what we’ve got.

We would go with what we've got, rather than spend £6m on Gary Madine.

Remember when everyone was saying the Tomlin fee was in excess of £3.5m!! It's just pure paper talk.

If this does happen, (I was still under the impression there were multiple targets yesterday evening and usual things were being prepped for all targets) then a fee will be banded about by BWFC to appease their supporters. We've not got £6m to spend on anyone.

He's scored more goals this season than any of our strikers.

Oh well done. At the age of 27 he finally manages a season where he gets into double figures in the league to add to his usual 9,8,6,4,2 that he gets in previous seasons.

Hes also played a lot more games than all of our strikers, and he takes the pens, something he wont do here if Joe Ralls is on the pitch.

It will be an uninspiring signing no matter what positive spin the "In Warnock We Trust" gang put on it.

You should add to the equasion that tally is in a struggling Bolton side.

Apparently in a promotion season Bolton didn't win a game when Madine didn't play 16/17 and won the vast majority when he did play, so his effect to their side is apparent.

Promotion from league 1. Big deal. Alex Revell was effective in getting Rotherham out of League 1. Hes shit too.

[MacAdder]

I'm inclined to agree. Even if he performs well for us I think we need more than just him through the door.
If he's the right man for another season in the championship then maybe but it's a fair outlay.
I just hope it's not a desperation signing just because we need someone in but one thing looks certain, if we don't sign anyone, we ain't going nowhere.
