Well, this is the thing, isn't it. It's all very well to have oodles of invented media speculation. That's speculation, not fact, and should make not a jot of difference to reality. It's all very well to have people talk about what their ITK mate has heard, but it all crumbles slightly when an article appears that is obviously reporting from the official source. I know that people will speculate at the time when no news is forthcoming, but when we get a retrospective article setting it out as it was then all the confusing pieces can be put into the jigsaw.
As for putting Jay into the 'they shall not pass' category, I think it's only sensible that Reed point out that rival clubs shouldn't be getting bids sorted out because the general response will be don't bother, the answer is NO..!
Of course, like last season, there will be a rider to that, and it will be, unless you want to pay twice his worth to us.
