They were about to announce some 'exciting news' this afternoon but have delayed it till tomorrow now as there is another announcement, Ben Murdoch-Misila and another new signing perhaps?

You're better off staggering them, surely a big name and the details of the season tickets for next year and then drip feeding others too keep up the publicity.

I think that's a bit stupid of the Doc, he has in reality released 4 very valuable assets for nothing, for me at the very least any club interested should have been asked about possible swap deals for first teamers or good younger prospects.

I think he's probably viewing it as a 'Get things sorted quickly so we can all get on with rebuilding' decision. Essentially writing off his own losses rather than have a few moody players darkening the atmosphere, and I can't say I blame him after the fiasco's this year. Besides, they're only valuable if they're happy and not being replaced with similar or better players.

. might have been quicker just to list the players who wanted to stay ..2-3-4-5-7-9-12 see

Hansen & Fages to me will be the most missed .

- honest grafters in hopefully.

Full credit to HH and Paterson for their performances in the crucial Widnes game.

Shows the tremendous character that we'll be losing.

On to the next chapter in the MK soap opera.

Excited by the future,as I was last year and the one before that !

I suspect certain players spat dummies out , and certain players were offered another way:- providing they played their part in keeping us in the SL - we can all work out who's who . and as we know there's another way of getting gold past a Tiger Tank ..



-- Holding onto highly paid players under contract who no longer want to play for Salford is just throwing good money after bad. and has proved liable to involve the club in more controversy & litigation. if you add up these players that's a big chunk of wages off the clubs books.



lets aim to be more rugby club , less soap opera for next season .

Compensation agreed with Theo now, this one saddens me the most, brilliant prospect and with Chase going he would have been a starting half back for a good long while. You suspect he's had some incredibly bad advice.

He's obviously made some big loses recently, but there's no way on earth he was going to get fees near what he paid. So he may have weighed what it's going to cost over the next 1-2 years and decided to cut his loses and get all these on silly contracts off the books.

This allows Sheens / Watson to bring in their own targets to fit into how they see the team and tactics going forward.

TBH the team we had put together was a bit like avengers assemble and that failed miserably.

I really think you will see a completely new club going forward.

similar to Ratchford's departure, it will nag seeing him play elsewhere after believing he would be a one-club player with a captain's-armband & a club testimonial to be earned.

the most interesting part of this will be where he end up .

Yep MK thought he'd 'financed ' an epic packed with super-heroes , what we got was the "league of very-ordinary gentlemen".. which of course bombed .
