It was nice to hear that Burnley had put in an offer.
“It massages the ego a bit but I’ve been happy enough here and it’s up to Coventry to decide whether they want to sell me or not
.
“I’m Coventry’s player and they deemed that the bid put in was not acceptable to how they value me.”
Speaking to the CT Lukas reveals he has been told by the coaching staff to save more of his energy for the box
“It’s something we talked about last season.
“I like to think I’m an honest player who gives everything for my team so I always work hard. But the coaches tell me I should try to save more of my energy for the box and ultimately I want to do that.
“I need to try to get myself in between the goals more and let the other lads get the service in.”
He didn't say "I don't want to go". Wisely keeping his options open as he knows he could easily be sold, but doesn't fill me with any confidence or optimism that he will still be here at the end of the window.
I'm confident he will stay, he understands the clubs situation and I hope he will do the right thing and stay. He looked happy here based on the way he played on Saturday and he sounds as though he has no intention of leaving.
He will only leave if it benefits the club on and off the field! The same goes to big ben! He answered te questions very well and personally can't see him leaving as it won't benefit the club!
Think your reading far too much into that, I mean why would they lie about it? If they had made an offer and we rejected it, it would make SISU look better to some of the SISU out crowd, no?

Why would they lie about having a meeting with the council?
Why say no offer has been received when it has? Why not just say "We have had an offer but he is not for sale". It would make common sense to come out and say "He isnt for sale" as it would please the SISU outters, but that would be too simple
Why feel the need to lie all of the time to the fans? Why would the juke come out and say he was touched by a non existent offer?

That was pretty much the point I was trying to make.
It could be that Juke thought a bid was made because of the speculation or a slip of the tounge etc. There is no gain whatsoever for the board/clouting to say a bid wasn't recieved if there was - as you (and I said) coming out and saying he's not for sale would go down much, much better.
I take it as the board say there was no bid, to encourage others to think that they may offer an acceptable amount. If they come out saying we rejected offers, other teams will think, 'well if they couldnt make a big enough bid, there is no way we will be able to'.
I am completely sick and tired of these SISU games. If your going to kill my club, just do it fast now, dont make this the most painful experience of my life.
