He's not ready to give up playing just yet.
Why would he risk getting injured again with no pay?Can he play with the U23s without actually being signed by us? Like a long term trial or whatever? Then do it. We have to save our boy.
Given all that he's been through and appears to still be going through there should be an open door policy for Jack to train with us for as long as he wants.
Realistically you couldn't justify signing him as a player at this stage even on a free, though I'd still kind of love it if we did.
If he's looking at hanging up his boots fairly soon he should have some kind of ambassadorial job here. Got to look after him.

If he had lowered his wage demands, a Championship club probably would've given him a chance.Dont think money is an issue for him.
Emotionally it's hard to let go of players like Jack. With the talent he had he deserved so much more out of his career.
