We knew it would happen but the news will unrest many Stoke fans. Only just today Kris Commons in front of these premiership scouts had another wonderful game topped off with a fine goal which he produced himself, with a nifty 1-2.
Stoke need to keep the team together in order to progress this season - otherwise we will suffer relegation. We cannot afford to sell a vital asset if we are to move forward.
Chairman Gunnar Gislasson today said the Icelanders will show their support for Steve Cotterill before the next home game, instead of signing a player or making funds available as first thought - maybe we would prefer this news to be NOT selling Kris Commons.
We will keep you updated.
Acceptable bids made for Commons are expected to be over the 2 million mark.
It is possible that Scouts were also checking out Belerussian International Captain Sergei Shtaniuk.
