Today's press has revealed that it was Hereford United that had the rejected bid for Crewe's Luke Rodgers.
Staffordshire-based paper The Sentinel, which covers Crewe, names the Bulls as the mystery £30,000 bidder for the pint-sized striker. While the bid was acceptable to Crewe, Rodgers rejected the move as he perfers to remain in League One.
The paper quotes Crewe assistant boss Neil Baker as saying a dozen clubs are tracking the player, but only a few are prepared the meet the asking price. Accrington are said to be happy with the asking price, but are yet to table a firm bid. Conference leaders Oxford are also prepared to splash the cash, and League One Port Vale are also interested but are reluctant to pay the asking price.
