Oyston denies Gorkss QPR apporach
Blackpool chairman Karl Oyston has strongly denied claims defender Kaspars Gorkss has been granted permission to talk with Queens Park Rangers.
Rangers' official website have reported the 26-year-old Latvia international has agreed personal terms, but that has been refuted by Oyston.
"We definitely have not given them permission to speak to him," Oyston told BBC Radio Lancashire.
"I'm disappointed once again with the way they've gone about their business."
