I'd rip your hand off for 5th. I've no issue with us rejecting the bid. Left it too late to try and engineer a move. If he throws teddies just put him on gardening leave.

I imagine it's relatively likely we told him to go home after he handed in his transfer request. I'd be very surprised if we rejected his request and then told him to go back to training.

Well, it wasn't us who leaked it to Sky this morning. I don't imagine Stephens (or more accurately his agent) would have allowed it to be kept quiet.

Depends how well the club spin it. I'm not sure I want anyone here who is happy to wait until 12 hours before the window closes before trying to force the clubs hand anyway.

Triggaaar You are of course correct - it's not. I'd still quite like us to play that level of hardball though. The way this story ends though is the way it always does - he'll be gone by the end of the day. Yep. Might send a message out we're not going to be bullied by players at such a...

I'd rather he rotted in the reserves for the rest of the season. If he wanted to go the time to do it was last week given there has been interest all summer. We now don't have time to replace him. Don't have anytime for players like that.

Well, it was you who repeated non stop in the Duffy these that we had accepted a bid and he was on his way despite absolutely no evidence of it.

You're becoming a bit like Ernest with the capital nonsense. Just makes you look a bit of a prick and doesn't help to identify the reasonable point you're trying to make.

Apart from one being a striker and one being a central midfielder.

He has played this year though which has made it a touch baffling - and it seemed the interest had gone away befor that game and hasn't come back.

He won't play until after the window. I think he'll still be here though - gone very quiet and it seems we're asking for more than anyone is willing to pay.
