Maybe, but I would expect the club to have been aware of his wage demands, and he's aware of what is going on at the club. Fact it's not done by now is a concern.
We should have had this tied up before the end of the season tbh rather than let it get to this point.
In all fairness, we don't know it isn't tied up. Might just be the club struggling to come up with some snazzy media announcement. Who knows!
I'd be disappointed if we lost out in signing Isted but it's not usually that difficult to find another decent keeper. There are loads who'd jump at the chance to be our number one.....or we keep Collins. I'm more concerned with recruiting a goal scorer, that should be our main priority.
We can't force him to sign at gunpoint... any agent worth their salt is going to try and get the best deal for him.
Let’s be honest Isted is a good keeper, no better or no worse than Collins, he was a crowd favourite these past few months, but we shouldn’t let that effect us especially if he joins another club, I’d rather lose him than Connell or Andersen.
I think the Collins / Isted thing is the issue. One bit of business needs to be done for the other to follow. If not we go Collins, but can't believe there arne't takers for him.
