As much as Stockley has monopolized the gossip recently I am equally keen to see what kind of signings we make defensively. Officially as it stands IIRC the only senior established CB we have is Inniss and as good as he is we can't rely on him all season due to fitness.
Personally I think that this has been whipped up to create a story.
i don't so, i think its Preston probably not being impressed with stockley basically having said i'm going to charlton and them saying well actually, you're our player and we might just have a say in this and how much we sell you for and who to
the word was that, barring 'outliers' - i.e legacies from relegation etc , £6k was generally the top end of league 1 (barring the salary cap period) and if we aim to get out of league 1, then in theory, we need a team full of top end League 1 players / earners. The salary sounds right to me.

But ultimately its his decision who he signs for. They can't make him sign for Pompey.

Yeah now we have Stockers in the bag we only need 3 wingers, 2 centre backs, 2 midfielders and a left back and somebody to take Ronnie off our hands so we can get another striker
Stockley will score 20 goals with good service from out wide.
I see a small flaw in your thinking.....
I see a big flaw in his thinking... mainly that Jayden scored just 9 in 41 matches last year and just 4 in 35 the year before and will be 29 years old next season. If anyone wants to bet he scores 20 next season in all competitions I am willing to take that action from the other side.
That's a very disingenuous way of using those numbers though. Stats are worthless without context. He played in 38 league matches and 3 cup matches last season. He made 16 league appearances for Preston in the Championship, but only 4 of those were starts (one of which he scored in). The rest were sub appearances, 5 of which were 11 minutes or less. One was 1 minute. In League One for us (the league he will be playing in again if he signs for us) he made 22 appearances, 20 starts, two sub appearances (one for 14 minutes) and scored 8 goals. 8 goals in 22 appearances for a team he'd just joined under 2 different permanent managers and, briefly, one caretaker, as well as multiple different team shapes is a great return. He obviously struggled in the Championship but we're not in the Championship and every player we sign can't be ready-made to push on to the next level. It's daft to write him off based on what he did in a different league a year ago when his most recent returns happened for us in the league we're playing in
Like been saying deal was done in May only last week we had to up the wages to 6k a week to get the deal done after games from his agent
Cawley already said a bid was only made last week
Confirmed yesterday by Pompey Twitter account Crawley was wrong see below
Jayden Stockley signed a pre-contract subject to wages with Charlton in May.
A pre contract subject to wages! I dont understand this! Is that worth the paper it’s written on?
I will sign for you unless you don’t pay me when I want
He’s making it up
I think so too. Pre contracts are not something of any value so rarely used. Conditional contract maybe, where you are and document key terms but with some 'subject to' provisions.

no, but they can charge a higher price to us and potentially reduce his salary

I don't see why they would though. Our money is as good as anyone's, they're better off just starting a standard bidding contest instead of playing silly buggers.
Well that's our first signing sorted. Hopefully that will calm some collective tits. Sounds like a lot of work went into this one despite the fact Stockley had spent half the season with us, so it's unsurprising other signings are going to take a while, especially if we're competing with other teams for individuals in a weird market

How can he sign anything, with anyone, until Preston accept a bid?

Not much to do then LOL
