The Yates thing isn't inside info, it was reported by various people, Kevin Nolan being one of them, that Yates was given the choice and wanted to play in League One, which he did well by all accounts.
And I'm not sure what you mean by Grant 're-loan story', it's not up for debate that he wasn't getting in Luton's team and we don't know if Hardy just presumed Grant would be going to League 1 because he was told he was unavailable to us, we'll find out if he speaks about it, which knowing him he likes to talk about things that should probably be kept private so it won't be long.
I really can't see Forest flat out lieing to Hardy and telling him that Jorge was definitely going to a League One club only to then loan him to Mansfield, I think it was either a guess or an excuse but either way it's backfired and made him look stupid.
