Question Unsettled?

Whats this all about?
I though Jay Jay was happy with you.

IF it's true, he's pretty much soured the fans and club towards him now regardless of a move coming off or not.

He's said a lot but it's often taken out of context. If Chelsea bid £12 million they can have him and we won't hold anything against him. He's got one year left on his contract and he's free to leave for nothing at the end. What will anger the fans is if someone bids £3 million and the short sighted board take it. Bolton hold all the cards It would require stupidity from the board for us to lose in the Okocha situtation, at least lose more than he would. The only problem is that the board once sold one of the best strikers we've ever had for at least £10 million less than his market worth, how is Eidur by the way?

Remarkably fitter now than he was at the end of the season.
He lost an easy stone or more that he put on at the run in.
Great player that young fella and i hope he will be around for quite some time yet.
He signed another extension to his contract last week and thus will be obligated to the club for the next 3 years.
I have a feeling that his time with Hasselbaink is all but over though.I could be wrong, but, i think Hass will be the one forced to leave if all the bollox about another striker turns out to be true.

Abramovitch (i'm actually geting better at spelling his name now )and his agent have said that they will pay silly money for nobody though.
One thing that is unclear from the bits i have seen is whether Jay Jay has just put out a feeler to see if there is any interest or somebody actually asked about him.

We'd welcome Eidur back with open arms and we possibly could have done if we didn't sell our best ever striker for peanuts

Okocha was probably asked about Chelsea and had it all changed around by the press, they seem to have a grudge against us since West Ham went down. He's happy at Bolton and he has one year left on his contract at which he'll be 30, so he'll still be able to play at the highest level. He can leave then for nothing and will still be a hero at Bolton. Okocha's presence alone is worth this coming seasons Premiership money, £12 million at least. He'll attract players here and his influence will help us build on our superb finish to the season. Hopefully the season after next we'll be in a great position to 'do a Spurs' and sit around in midtable for years on end but we need to build for that this year, we're close but not close enough. He can walk without us really missing him. If he bangs in a transfer request we'd be better off sticking him in the reserves for 12 months and potentially ************ing up his career, he wouldn't risk it. So the way I see it the only way he'll move is if someone bids silly, yet realistic money (contradiction!) or the board stupidly accept a 10p mix and a bag of hula hoops for him in which case they wouldn't be the board for much longer...
