Wow some turnaround, I really hope he does stay but this needs to be put to bed quickly. If he does sign then GJ deserves a lot of praise for the way he has dealt with this too.

The real deal too, no own brand.

Plus, if it is a club with cash who are after him then this could be a great Agent tactic. Agent gets Will to sign on better terms with us and takes his cut. Then orchestrates a transfer fee and signing on deal with new club and gets more commission.

This would be a huge step in the right direction. I'd fear that if the likes of WB were to turn us down then we'd have little chance of keeping CW as well. Fingers crossed.

Same as the Wes Thomas deal Crawley did, taking him for free from us and selling on for £200k in the same window. Only this time we take on the role of Crawley rather than the patsy like last time.

It would seem that an improved offer was made (?), which would surely have played a part in a change in attitudes. The leaving him out on Saturday was just childish and to the detriment of the team and the paying fans. - I would argue

If you have a player whose head ‘isn’t right’ because he is in contract talks, I would see that as a concern. Again, just what I think.

My interpretation is that WB may have been badly advised by his agent, GJ has likely told him to stop messing us around and sign or we will withdraw the offer. GJ also dropped the player when told to speak with his agent, this has somehow brought everything to a quick resolution.
I'd also imagine any new deal will include a commitment to let the player move on if a realistic offer is received for a bigger club in league one or Championship.

He was dropped for Morecambe away when interest from Blackpool was at it's highest so it's a fair call out.

JP tweeted half an hour ago that GJ has confirmed that "talks are back on track" with WB.
In other news, Rhys Lovett has signed a one year extension.

Some key issues and thoughts (if Boyle signs the new deal - and I hope he does):
1. The CTFC fans will be very happy that Boyle is signing a new deal and no harm will have been done to reputations. 2. It puts to bed the rumours surrounding Johnson's relationship with Boyle and shows that despite any animosity that may have sprung up, Johnson does not have any grudge anywhere. 3. It puts a different perspective on the other muck that is being slung around as the rumour mill has been going into overdrive - and crucially, Johnson has not “lost the dressing room”. 4. Johnson has very clearly stated that in dealing with players deliberating on contracts that have been offered, he has decades of experience and knows how to handle them. He is a shrewd manager in that regard and has to make sure the deal is beneficial to the Club as well as the player. 5. In letting players go, Johnson also knows their values and will make sure CTFC does not lose out. We are lucky to have a manager with such experience, as we have let players go in the past, well under market value and we have been taken for fools. It won’t happen with Johnson. 6. Getting Boyle’s signature will be a very positive sign for others looking at contract negotiations.
