    Is this a real post? It's a private account so I couldn't check it for myself. Seems a like an odd thing for a pro footballer to say on deadline day. If a £5m bid comes in for him, I don't think he'll have much say in it tbf. That said, if it is real, a giant drone image of him at the next night match please.

    If a £5m bid comes in for him he's still got to agree to move. Granted if they're paying that much they'd likely treble his wages as well, but he still has the deciding say in it.

    Well yeah, I'm assuming any Club that came in with that kind of bid, would also smash the wages we're paying him. Obviously I want him to stay and would be over the moon to hear we rejected big bids for him.

    Maybe who does and doesn't respond gives us an idea of the day ahead.

    I’m in the Hope he Stays camp. We need his drive and goals to get that top two slot.

    Just stay one more season Adam and, once again, I’m really sorry my partner blasted the car horn and made you throw your food tray in the air outside the Harrogate ground :D

    Did you know? Adam has the best points per game rate (1.71) of any Reds player to have played as many or more games for the club with 59 goal contributions in those 139 games?

    Neither did I.

    Thanks, @gooderzone x

    He'll add the late caveat that it was a message intended for his Mrs :)

    That's incredible. Already moving into legend territory, especially if we go up this season. Assuming he doesn't get injured he'll be on close to 200 appearances by the end of the season - quite unusual in this day and age for a star player at a club like ours

    Sounds like he's properly knuckled down and taken getting dropped last season as motivation rather than getting the face on. Well done Adam, long may it continue.

    He's only recently made his account private I think, as I follow him, but I don't follow any players who's accounts are private. It definitely seems like a genuine account, plenty personal images of his Mrs and child. Also plenty of comments on it from fellow Reds players, Connell, DKD, Jalo etc.

    On the one hand, he's one of our more saleable assets and we need to balance the books somehow.

    On the other hand, this is ******* excellent news.

    He's deserved his own song for ages. After this (and if he does indeed stay) it's an absolute must!

    Would be a risky sidewise move he’s better off staying unless going to championship

    Isn't that because hes been with us since we got relegated to league one? If any player has a season in the champ its coming way down.
