    Yes, correct. Suggested a 'bad egg' and then brought up his Barrow spell to suggest he is shite.

    Absolutely no chance of that happening. Id be shocked and appalled if it did mind. GA throwing himself under a bus...

    If we are winning 2-0 then you may be correct.

    I think its mind games. They see him warming up on side and it teases them - as Borat said “you aint never gonna get this”

    he fails to get on then flogged to L1 next week

    If he doesn’t get on then that just proves that Alexander is in on the deception !!

    Exactly my take on it Dave, No doubt though there will be some who see it completely differently.
    Clean slate for the lad, good luck to him.
    If we had signed one of the leagues leading scorers this week, for x amount of £s, we would all be extatic.
    Also i will hold my hand up, i was one of the ones who thought this injury was fake news, but apparently Swindon and Flynn flogged him to death, knowing he would not be there come January.

    GA would be finished if that happened. I just dont see him taking the risk.

    I brought up the Barrow spell because his spell here forest green and yes Barrow suggest he is not as good as you think and the fact other teams are not offering over the odds for him backs that up. And when he left many people thought it was because of his attitude. If he stays here and scores goals then I assure you no one will be more pleased than me. Starting this afternoon if necessary

    No not whist this thread could have 5 more days to run if Jakes not called upon, just imagine if he gets a call and becomes a regular starter scoring goals, it may make fellow postes question Mark Hughes even more, you know bite your nose off to spit your face ;).

    He was 19/20 at FGR. 3rd choice striker behind Jay and Stevens who scored for fun.

    12 goals in 62 games. And a league title. Not bad for a teen.

    When the kid gets a run of games and his confidence is up he is a very good player - worth far more than £200k :laughing:

    PS - you dont know our asking price and what other teams have offered. So unfair to judge on that.

    Do you think he has a choice though? If they are winning and he brings him on to forsake 250k, 350k, 500k, or whatever, from a possible sale next week, has he been told by the owner that will that be deducted from his summer rebuild budget?

    maybe he’s been given that option but the club think its worth playing him to boost our goals tally and stop ST holders cancelling in the summer from a perceived lack of ambition at the club?

    £250k is peanuts and equivalent of retaining 1250 adult STs at £200 a pop.

    ……maybe it is worth keeping him as we could lose four times that many fans if we stay in the bottom half of the table and don’t utilise him?

    can always sell (even at reduced rate without a January premium) in summer if needed……

    I'm surprised he's on the bench, I really am. It'll be interesting to see if he comes on. It wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't, and is simply there to create an illusion of being part of our plans to support negotiations on a fee.

    My prediction for the reason why GA doesn’t bring JY on is that “JY said his ankle felt a little sore when warming up on the touchline. We’re keeping him fresh for next week”.

    Did you clap them off at half time? Drowned out those doom mongers at all cost.

    If the remains interest in him, then If I'm Jake Young, I'm in that dressing room saying 'don't even think of brining me on'.
