Kinnear Has Meeting With Owen!
Kinnear: "I have had a long chat with Michael Owen and he told me that one of the problems with the players has been that they have been kept in the dark as to what is happening.
"Now after talking at length to Derek Llambias, I have been able to have a clear-the-air-talk with Michael in his role as skipper, and this has been passed on to the rest of the players.
"They are now up to date with what is going on and they are a lot happier.
"My stay could be extended beyond the end of October, but I don't think so, to be honest, because I know for a fact Mike is talking to eight consortiums.
"I don't know the outcome of those. I haven't got a timescale on it, so I don't really know what the outcome is.
"But I know he is in talks with at least eight consortiums because he has told me that himself.
"Who they are, what they are, when it will happen, there is no timescale on it.
"I am contracted for eight games, but I assume that should due diligence and the deals go on a little bit longer, it may run into 10 or 12 games."
