Josh Maja update. Yesterday Josh asked to see Jack to say he will sign. Today I got a call from Sky TV saying he won't sign. Josh advised his agent has said don't sign but no courtesy to tell the club - Also we offered what the agent indicated!!! Busy January ahead

Absolutely bizarre like, why bother specifically meeting with JR to say he wants to stay? Sounds very final, anyway.
 
Because agents dont like being slagged off in public? It could put off other agents from working with the club in the future, if they feel like they might also get the same treatment. Agents work behind the scenes and dont announce things publically when clubs pull out of a deal etc, its about remaining professional.

This agent I imagine will think twice in future about bringing their players to you.
That may be the case but the club have given maja and his agent everything they've asked for and he's still advising Maja not to sign - as far as i'm concerned that is a kernts trick and the club are right to go public and fuck him off. Other clubs may see that and think "fuck that we aint dealing with this twat of an agent"

agents dont give a fuck..its a money thing..they sill be back next week if sunderland is the best deal for another of his clients
 
Because it's going to come back on Maja the same way people were booing Cattermole at Hartlepool after Donald came out and slagged his agent off. Honeyman also got it in the neck.

Donald coming out and publicly talking about this stuff is a bad move on all counts. They're turning the situation into a circus when we need to be focusing on the pitch.

It was already out, Sky were calling him for comment and the media being what they are they would have just printed a load of shite. Why on earth wouldnt he make sure OUR side of the story was in play rather than be vilified by the agents shit house games.

It’s small time bollocks
Very much so.

Can’t think of any Premier League chairman who would do something of the sort.

The podcasts were great, interaction with fans on any kind of issue is great. Constantly commenting on transfer rumours and then coming out with this is embarrassing.

Soft backed shit. Get sold ASAP.
 
to be honest, at least everyone now knows the situation. Time for Maja to get a taste of the grown up world where you have to start dealing with the consequences of your decisions. Hes going to have to find a new club now where he wont get the tolerance he gets here (how is Asoro getting on?).
its a shame for us and the lad, as clearly he is a work in progress and if he keeps doing what hes doing the big rewards will inevitably follow, but IMO hes not ready for a step up in level and needs much more game time at this level to develop physically and improve his overall play.
 
My guess is his agent called someone at sky to pass on his "News" to raise the profile. Probably wrong but one thing is for sure, our new owner is really open about the crap that agents put them through. If he does play tomorrow, I really hope the 3000 fans get behind him and show him what he'll be missing
I don’t, he can fuck off for me. Hope he doesn’t play again until he signs. The fans have been behind him since he made his debut, it’s him that needs to grow a set of balls and fuck off his agent.
