Simple as this, really. No need for too much melodrama about it.

I think the statements from the club and the player pretty much tell the story - bids were made last summer which fell short of the asking price at that time, but a new bid has come forward that meets the asking price now, and no doubt the wage package is extremely lucrative. It's business, MK Dons are one of the financial big hitters in the lower leagues right now and many if not most players would take the bait if it was offered.

Dan Crowley is, without doubt, a immensely talented player for this level, but he's also got flaws, which is probably why he's moving from one League Two club to another and not to a team far higher up. It is what it is. Hopefully the lads we've signed from Everton and Hull will each bring their own spark to the squad.
