I have to safeguard the club. It's up to him whether he wants to stay. I'm hopeful he will. He's one of the professional players I have been associated with.

Until our investigation is complete there is nothing more I can say.

I really hope Luke takes the option up because he is the most professional footballer I've come across. His value to the club is enormous.

At the moment I have no comment until I finish the inquiry. I am hoping to do that as quickly as I can.

We have offered Frank a contract. It's up to them to see whether it's going to be accepted or not.

I'd be very surprised if he played next weekend.

I have investigated the matter. I can't be the judge and jury ? that's for the board to decide.
