[LNB]"Burnley were keen on George, but they haven't met our valuation and we weren't interested in the player exchange," Fry told the Peterborough vening Telegraph. [LNB]"We did try and get Coutts back, but Preston want to keep him, as he's one of their cheaper players so that's dead in the water already."
