    That would mean that GA who has never in the 30+ years he's been come across as one, would be lying. Plus there is no way Young will be taking notice of any authority figures at this club.

    It's more likely that the immature Young, thinks this ploy will mean we'll accept a cheap offer. So the contine to keep calm and if a suitable offer doesn't occur then on Feb 1st Young will make himself miraculously available. GA of course will only let him into the team if form warrants it.

    Frankly, I'm bored with this saga. This is a player who's scored in just 6 of his last 19 matches and he's getting viewed as though we've got the equivalent of Haaland.

    That said though Portsmouth have suddenly stopped scoring and paying over the odd pays for itself if it gets you into The Championship. So who knows maybe someone will put in a crazy offer.

    Why would it mean Alexander is lying?

    the communication. Between him and those above isnt the best and, ultimately, the decision to sell him comes from people higher up the chain.

    Young will have been told by those controlling the transfer to say he’s injured and then he won’t be available for selection to GA.

    GA may he telling truth - all he’s said so far is ‘nobody told me not to pick him’ and that ‘others have a say when it comes to transfers’ - or words to similar effect?

    You think Sparks and whoever, is going behind GA's back and telling him to pretend he's injured?? So GA who is in charge of the team - doesn't really know which players are genuinely injured?

    I think the truth is a lot less entertaining!!

    You aren’t allowed to criticise him unless you can buy him out m8, get your cheque book out with comments like that.

    In all honesty I cannot blame the club in wanting to cash in on Young. He clearly has no affinity with the club now.

    Let him go and let's move on. The whole squad is about to be ripped apart again and rebuilt. Weren't we at this stage 2 seasons ago. Not really moved forwards one iota it seems.

    That's the Bradford City approach. Look forward to the next managerial rebuild but don't look to the future!

    Our approach has failed continually for over twenty years now other than that period under Parky. I doubt very much whether Lady Luck will smile so bountifully on us once again.

    Its unfair to blame Young. If he is picked he will play. The club are desperate to sell him so he is in limbo. The club is obviously short of money and without sales the owner may have to put cash in he does not want to. Blaming the player is wrong

    Two bids confirmed so far both rebuked by City.
    Latest rumour I received tonight mentioned to me that there's interest from both Preston and Bolton.

    No not mentioned but if what I have been told is correct Jake doesn't want to sign for a Southern based club and wants to stay up this end of the country.

    Wish they’d stop rejecting offers and just let the sulky little tw@t leave. Just yet another distraction in a very very shite season

    It’s just a poker game. He’ll leave, we’re just trying to drive up the price.
