  • "You have no real idea what the fee is do you?

    If you understand it to be £200k even though the contracting parties have decided to keep the matter private, the bigger story is - who inside the club is feeding you with information - did the cleaner find something on the copier?

    I suspect you are not correct as I have been told that the opening bid was £500k"

Scott Loach has completed his move to Watford’s Championship rivals Ipswich Town.

The ‘keeper leaves the Vicarage Road club for an undisclosed fee and has signed a four-year contract with the Tractorboys.

Although the fee is undisclosed, the Watford Observer understands it to be around £200,000.

Watford pulled out of a deal to sign Tom Heaton following the club's takeover and Loach's replacement is expected to be either Carlo Cudicini or Manuel Almunia.

Loach was with the Ipswich academy as a youngster before his family moved away from the area.

He made over 150 appearances for the Hornets and has also racked up 14 caps for England at Under-21 level during his time in Hertfordshire.
