There was a thread somewhere that Iain Hume was very critical of the PNE board for their transfer business this summer (sales of their best players) and said that they had broken assurances made to him when he signed and if he had known what would happen he wouldn't have. Wouldnt surprise me if he wanted to leave and they were happy to let him go. Would be a good signing IMO. Decent scoring record and still only 27.

This is true, but whether he wants to leave - I'm not so sure.
Whatever the case, he is a quality player and I would love for him to come (him leaving would weaken PNE quite seriously, too; he was still scoring regularly in the Champs last season, even though they went down and I expected him to leave in the summer)...but the price tag sounds a bit excessive and if it's from FR, it's probably a load of bollox anyway!
Phil Parkinson new manager so I assume people are speculating now.
Finally, according to the T&A, City are in talks to sign Charlton’s former Dagenham striker Paul Benson after the Londoners accepted their bid, which is understood to be a lot lower than the reported £150,000 buy-out figure. They are also hopeful of snapping up winger Kyel Reid, who is a free agent since leaving The Valley in the summer.
I would be amazed if Benson went further up north than Notts C.
