His contract is up in the Summer so I wouldn't be surprised if we use the threat of recalling him to try and force Posh's hand in to submitting a bid and then use those funds elsewhere.Lets face it,if Posh feel he is that important they won't want to derail their promotion push.
    I’m not saying he’s wrong, in fact that’s exactly what I think, just that he shouldn’t be saying anything like that. Look at us under Warne, the line then was always “X are his employers and it is their decision and we must abide by it” which is the correct thing to say. On the other hand, would a chance under new management to prove himself at a higher level also not be attractive to the player in getting a decent move in the summer?

    I get your point about Fry. I had to chuckle when Fatty was their manager and would loved to have been a fly on the wall when him,Fry and McAnthony had a meeting! That club always seem to push boundaries but have done some pretty good business over the years.Maybe we're too nice at times. I'm always dubious about players who don't want to be here so I'd be careful with Kioso. Sending him out on loan was a decision that raised quite a few eyebrows on here at the time and it seems another gamble MT made that didn't pay off.

    Beau, Kioso has no say in the matters. He is a Rotherham United player under contract to us end of. He might like it there simply because it's a lower level of football and he's found his level there. If they want him and he wants to say then get the money out Posh or Fry and Co or shut tfu.

    Or arguably you end up with a demotivated player that doesn’t look out of place with our current squad
