    I certainly ain’t berating him, rather how and why he might have come to his decision making process.

    Hugh amount of hindsight but I think things would have turned out quite differently if Barnsley had met the price for Lewis last summer. I doubt the fans would have objected to him going to a team at the top of the league above, the lack of move wouldn’t have affected him mentally and his form may have been different. It was a calculated risk going to Carlisle-careers aren’t long and money is important and maybe he thought he’d play a part in keeping them up?
    From our perspective, we seem to have gotten very lucky with Walker-but also an inditement of our scouting that he was a Doyle recommendation.
    You’d expect as a club to have a list of players for each position, in terms of preference, likelihood, experience vs prospect…. Or is that just common sense?

    Nobody has joined a w*nkfest. Not sure where you hang out but each to ones own.

    I personally just think he's one of those players who doesn't care about playing, it's all about money. He would play at Guiseley if they offered him £5k a week

    Not aimed at you personally, just see a lot of fans rejoicing in his apparent downward spiral. I know of another player who did a similar thing, made a decision that he now regrets but that's football. Not every move for a player will go to plan. I admire the lad for backing himself at a higher level.

    Good luck to him. Closer to home.

    Might be something in it, but lets see. Best to wait until someone a bit more reliable than someone who has chicken in their name gives us information, before reading the eulogy.

    Agreed. I also think though, if the offers are close then Jamie stays. I genuinely think that he enjoys his football here.

    He looks to be one of the few players who appear to have a genuine connection with the fans and the club.

    Indeed, good luck to him.

    We offered less so if we then lose him, none of that is on Jamie Walker.

    Isn't Walker still on holiday? Can't imagine he's making decisions on his future whilst away.

    Also, this account was created today and it's this is it's only tweet.....

    Seems like Paddy Madden is signing with Chesterfield. Coming from a Stockport reporter for the MEN.

    Which account is this. It would be a blow to lose Walker unless we have better lined up

    He was apparently at the club earlier today filming something for Andy's Man Club.
