The following three things work massively in our favour:
We want him. Bradford don't. He wants to join us.
I'm confident that after a bit of brinksmanship he'll be joining us. Getting Pond signed up is my biggest concern. As good as Pearson and Miller are, I think Pond has been absolutely outstanding and was immense last night.

If you were the manager of a League Two side which needed a bit more firepower [Chesterfield, for instance] wouldn't Hannah's goal return for Town catch your attention? Not all clubs in that division are blessed with a Nahki Wells plus an Alan Connell as a back-up. In that scenario Hannah's supposed loyalty to Grimsby might well evaporate pretty quickly!

This for me. But he looks like he's enjoying it here and we're playing him in his preferred position. Plus the only team in this league who could outbid us realistically are Luton but Pond has always been based in the north. We need him to sign and I think he will.

Look at it this way, If you went into a car salesroom and paid the 1st price the salesman offered, You would get a lousy deal, If you barter and make it clear there are other cars for sale elsewhere, You get a better deal, Its the same when one club wants to sign a player from another club, At the end of the day, Town and Bradfud will reach an agreement that is suitable for both parties. Relax guys

But it works on the reverse as well if other people are also interested in the car you want the sales person won't be interested in bartering.

He will if the car says he only wants to be sold to you.

Is the car from the island of Sador? Does the car have a friend called Thomas and a fat bloke that drives him to and from work?

Agreed. It seems to me Bradford know how desperate we are for him to sign asap and have hiked the price up a bit. The longer January goes on the more the price will go down (and possibly the more points we'll lose out on). Or he'll just sign for someone else
