    Why do millers fans think we under value and sell players cheap?. Isn't it about what other clubs are willing to pay. Any player at any level who goes up for sale is known by every club.

    Flipping the coin pal. How can Peterborough always gets many millions for the players they sell as a League 1 club?

    Going back as far as 12 seasons ago yes in 2011/12 they sold Ryan Bennett centre back £3.5 Million to Norwich

    Britt Assombalonga for £6.9 Million to Forest

    Ivan Toney to Brentford for £5.6 Million unproven as a striker then but still went for a colossal amount of money.

    Dwight Gayle to Palace for £5.30 Million in the 2013/14 season.

    Jack Marriott to Derby for £3.40 Million 2018/19 season.

    Connor Washington to QPR way back in 2015/16 season for £3.30 Million.......the list is endless. Again I ask why are Posh so successful at getting mega money for their players and all those years ago? A lot of those players hadn't become household names until they moved on to bigger clubs and developed more.

    To answer your question of, 'Why do millers fans think we under value and sell players cheap?' I feel we get very little for our players as we don't demand enough for them like other clubs do and who's in charge of all that? I think it's the 'we are only a small club' attitude that let's others take advantage of our weakness when selling players.

    It's a valid point. How much did we get for Barlaser? He was probably the best player on the pitch on Boxing Day and seemed to be running the game!
