I get what you are saying, I really do, I think as has been pointed out though, this feels bigger than one crucial player leaving, it feels like a pivotal moment in the clubs history. Keep him and it sends a huge message to the league that we truly are back and mean business and we are building something special. If he goes, I think we all fear the unknown...who is next to go? What stops Watkins, Martinez, Konsa etc (all with fewer genuine ties to the club) from leaving next season or the one after? Do we fall into a cycle of recruting well and sell for higher prices and repeat? It massively tests our recruitment strategy for sure and if the club have a great deal of faith in our youngsters filling key gaps then great, amazing, but that will still take time and losing Jack feels like it will leave a cloud, a gloom that will likely be hard to shift for some time. I hope this is not the reality and maybe plans are already afoot to replace him. Maybe he stays? We all hope so. Time will tell. I feel flat at the thought of losing him for sure but our club will remain and always will. UTV
