Surely not. He’s one of our best players.

If that's true then Cardiff can f**k off

Put a copy of the Twitter feed up mate as I’m sure someone (not me) will be able to suss if it’s a dodgy account.

I seen a photo of a message to a cardiff from from “cardiff city stadium Steve” not being funny but if it was true not sure why you’d throw your source under the bus like that so doubt it

Rumours gathering pace on Twitter. Unbelievable if true.

Harris says lots of things..

If he’s replaced by better, it’s good business. If not, it’s still good business. Average at best..

That story originated from a known bullshitter on Twitter.

Someone who repeatedly claims to have "reliable sources" but they are never true.

Joe Ralls, through his official Twitter account (his account with the blue tick next to it which means the account is verified), has also liked a tweet that said "Joe Ralls isn't going to Bristol City".

Non-story.

Lol - this is complete bullshit.

Rumours will abound and the truth will out at some point...

Would be somewhat but not totally surprised, as I now believe City are on a cost-cutting exercise and we may see a couple of 'shock' departures before the current window closes

If an off for £3m came in he’d have been driven there and sold immediately because he is not worth that at all. I’d have driven there for that because he’s crap. He runs a lot and because he’s got energy everyone loves him. It’s the same as Paterson, he’s blood and guts everyone loves him, but he’s crap the sooner he’s gone the better. The squad needs trimming for financial reasons, but it’s needed reshaping for ages. If this and Paterson is true, add hoilett and I’d be over the moon.

Sadly however this I am pretty sure is a non story.

How people on this thread can say Joe Ralls isn't a good player beats me. He's the best player we have by a country mile. He covers every blade of grass and always finds space and his man. Massively underrated.
Sell him and our season is over regarding top 6.

Easy, because he’s got energy that’s it! He’s not creative, his passing is average, his positional play is woeful he doesn’t really offer anything apart from tonnes of space to anyone he’s marking, but he isn’t quick enough to make that back. As I said he covers grass by running around, he finds his man as it usually goes back from where it came. He cannot control a game.
Ralls looks ok in a good midfield with decent players because of his energy. Don’t confuse that with him being a quality midfielder. Flip your statement, if he was as good as everyone makes out how come no one has come in for him especially as we are currently a selling club?
Sell him and replace him with a decent midfielder. Massively overrated.

3 million is good business for an average championship player but I don't think the money will get reinvested in the playing squad! I think it will be used to keep the club going for a while remember Tan has got a number of clubs to try and keep afloat with no revenue stream coming in so I can only see more players leaving and none coming in.

Just hope we got players lined up for replacements

Hope this is just rumour. City play better with Joe Ralls in midfield.

In these times,its a very risky business to go all for broke,on possible promotion imho,those who do and fail,could be in for some very hard times down the line,I would say cutting your cloth is pretty much happening at all businesses ,and if no crowds at sports things will be worse next year.
And yet Wednesday can offer 25k week for Zohore loan? :old: :bluebird:
