Peace admits Robbo may finally go

Paul Robinson could finally be on his way to Bolton as West Brom chairman Jeremy Peace has softened his stance on the left-back's valuation.

Peace has been adamant that he will not let the wantaway defender move for less than £1million, but is now considering cutting his losses on a player who has been vocal in expressing a desire to quit The Hawthorns.

Bolton have had a bid of £500,000 previously rebuffed and have gone back in with a £750,000 offer. Peace appears resigned to losing a player who two years ago was close to joining Wigan Athletic.

"We have been here before with Paul," Peace told the Bolton News. "He has expressed his desire in the press to play elsewhere in no uncertain terms.

"Robbie (Di Matteo) has already spoken to him. Nobody is going to leave here unless they go with terms acceptable to us.

"If, on balance, it is felt a player is better off being elsewhere, then we would look at that."

"Best bad kisser in the championship by far. Usless defender though. Good job Wolves are buying useless players as Bolton might have gone this time."

"I actually recon he might actually be a good signing. I know i'ma little on my own here but he can play football and would make a useful squad player if nothing else. I personally think £2m on Shittu was money worse spent. "
