It could be the calm of the early part of the January window and the craving for some kind of information but Bristol Rovers fans have been engaging in an interesting game for much of this week - just how much is Aaron Collins worth?
Even Joey Barton got involved (and probably sparked a lot of the debate) as, in the wake of the 2-1 win over Cheltenham Town in which Collins, once again played a starring role scoring one and making another for Josh Coburn, he declared: “If someone comes for him, Scott Twine went to Burnley last year from MK Dons. You’re talking those kinds of numbers, that is the reality.”
When you’re putting up the numbers Collins is - 13 goals and 10 assists - for a team that while performing, by in large, above pre-expectations are still not one of the obvious high-level attacking teams in the division, it’s going to attract a fair share of attention.
