Yep would accept with 25% sell on. He's 25, one year left on a deal and very much a hot and cold player. Use the money to get a real good centre midfielder and goalie.
 
The fact Bil has a reputation for being "awkward" and has stated his desire to leave, not to mention his failure to return to the club since May makes it extremely unlikely that the scummers will up their bid

We WILL accept the £150k i am sure

Depends if there is any other bidders. If other clubs were interested and see west ham making a bid after having him on trail, they may think he's worth a bid for themselves, I'm thinking of championship sides, the likes of Sheff Wed might offer 250k to nick him off west ham.
 
Didn't think they'd actually offer for him - what's Big Sam up to? Sturrock doesn't trust him at centre half in league 2! £150k + 25% will do nicely thank you. Well done to Bil too for playing himself into this opportunity.
 
just get him off the books where there is one player brought in on trial and signed for nothing there are other un cut gems out there just waiting to be given there chance plus rember we got him for nowt so any money is profit .
 
Get shot of him if the bid is the reported £150k . Perhaps then the club can pay for their tour to Madrid!
 
If we could perhaps negotiate a sell on/appearance clause then £150,000 isn't too bad an offer all things considered.
 
It's like tipping a waitress £70 it just seems disrespectful to me!

Typical case of **** on the little club!

If we don't sell I can see him playing next season!
 
The problem is he doesn't want to come back and PS has said he doesn't want him back so that lowers his value considerably.

Get real OBD its not sh*tting on the little club. A player in League 2 with one year on his contract, who blows hot and cold, I dont think £150k is taking the mick. He is a great player but shouldnt classed with the likes of Nick Powell who went for £4m alledgedly.

I dont think he will play for us again. Luggy has moved on and brought in other players in his position(s) in Cresswell and Hurst/Brogan.
 
150k for an unproven 25 year old who's only been playing professional football for 2 seasons (at it's lowest level) really isn't that bad. Add to that his well documented disciplinary problems, lack of outright position and the fact he only has a year left at a club 'he'll never play from again.' By the sounds of it he hardly shone on their tour so they're hardly going to throw money at us for him, people need to get real, Powell and vardy are both young, massively hyped and English all of which bring their price up higher than that of a talented loose cannon who is halfway through his career. I like him as a player but it's clearly a big gamble on west ham's part and I think we should take what they offer and move on.
 
I reckon we should include a clause in the sell on fee that we get an extra 1% everytime he gets sent off or booked....we will be quids in!
 
150k is less than I hoped, but didnt really expect much more than 200k.

Its still a decent amount for a player who isnt even really a first team player.
