Reading boss Steve Coppell has reacted to comments from Stephen Hunt by insisting he had been 'more than fair' in rejecting a bid from Everton.
Hunt feels he 'probably deserved a little bit better from the club' after a bid from David Moyes' side was rejected but Coppell insists that the Royals behaved impeccably.
He told the club's official website: "It was always going to be a difficult summer, what with relegation and aspirations of certain players to play in the Premier League.
"I think that I and the club have been more than fair to everyone in the squad.
"Everyone had a price and if that price was met I made a deal available to the player.
"That gave every player the opportunity, if conditions were met, to move on."
