Don't think we'll see him in a Vale shirt again mate tbh

Promotion sees it more likely rovers will sign him permanently for me

[The French Connection]

Seems more likely, doesn't it, and as he's a high earner at the Vale it might help free up a wedge of budget for a Pope improved offer, or another quality player?

Agreed. His face doesn't fit as well as Willo's or Birchalls's, ability aside and he's gone.

 

The real truth is he is one of them and he'll do better there. His heart wasn't in it for us

[Shropshire_Valiant]

Tend to agree, I'm not a believer of the crap that is spouted on here that he's been rubbish for us! I actually thought he was up there in the best 5 or 6 players for us in the season before he went. Sadly as Yukon has said there were times when his heart haven't been in it and his face doesn't fit(which is ridiculous with rubbish like Williamson and Birchall being offered deals!). Sad as I think he could be quite a talented midfielder who should be a lot better than Conference and League Two but he's a Bristol Rovers lad and clearly want to move back that way! Good look to him!

Wonder what sort of a fee we could get for him. he is under contract isn't he?

[MattW]

I suspect wed let him go to get him off the wage bill. He has another 12 months to run

[andy jones]

Some players fit in some don't.

 

Lines has the talent and if he is at a club where he feels wanted he could be a great asset to them.

 

Hope he does go as clearly his face doesn't fit at Vale Park and with their potential crowds they could afford him

probably for a nominal fee.

It'll all depend on whether Bristol Rovers can get some money out of Sainsburys who have reneged on a deal to buy the Memorial Ground. Presumably as he has a year left on his contract, there will be some sort of transfer fee involved? Also, he is no doubt on a higher wage than the other Bristol Rovers players?

I agree - as per - http://www.onevalefan.co.uk/site/2015/05/why-sainsburys-could-hold-the-key-to-chris-lines-future/

[MattW]

He will want to go there I'd think and if page wants rid they'd tear up his vale deal so he could sign for them.

 

I'd be surprised if there's any fee involved.

[valeparklife]

Well he keeps favouriting a ton of tweets on Twitter from Rovers fans asking him to stay. And he's tweeted he's "never been happier" while being at Rovers.

 

I'm guessing that's the last we'll see of him again.
