Coley made it clear that there had been no fall out whatsoever with James and that unless a very good offer comes in for him he has 12 months left. In fact he has a good craic with the lad and spent quite. A lot of time in Northampton recently with his dad. He did add though that if the Cobblers offer £15 million he'll be off.

Gray was sent off before JC came in. We then won the first 3 games and had scored 7 in the process. That style of play requires someone to hold the ball up and bring others into play. Coley stated that James goes to ground very easily which is fantastic and dangerous when it goes for you but if not gives away possession and leaves you open due to the number of players committed to going forwards.

James is also one of the highest earners at the club and it makes sense if he is not playing to get him some game time and keep him off the wage bill. There is no vendetta.

Before Terry came back there was nobody to hold the ball up hence the Crooks experiment. JC stated that Crooks let himself down with his finishing. One funny moment is when he said although he doesn't blame Matty for the Yeovil defeat...indeed one could argue Shay McCartan missed an easier chance in the first game....he winds him up in training by telling him he owes us half a million.
