Yeah but its the player that it is, Possibly player of the year for sure and then let go in the same breath.
I am sure he will end up in Super League but wants to stay with us.

Well if the brass aint there he can't.... c'est la vie!

Plenty time for these threads after Sept 26th, best if they are bottled up till then.

I agree, please leave this crap till the offseason. What happens happens. How many potential recruits read these boards? They are going to be put off signing for Fax if they are concerned about their paychecks arriving on time. Whilst I appreciate your efforts to keep said player, please consider what you are posting. There is a massive difference between word of mouth and writing on a public forum for all to read.

Why is it Crap ???. Just Because you dont wanna Hear it. Would you prefer i put the thred on another site ?. i think not.

Yes. What happens happens. Scare mongering helps nobody. So please feel free to put it wherever the hell you would like.

Scaremongering ???. It has Come from the PLayers lips - FACT. Hardly scaremongering, If you get scared by something like this then i fear for you with lifes little hurdles. I am merely pointing something out.

I was at the game today against Batley, I go to every home and away game, also went to the blackpool 9's comp, some of the rumours of player departures at the end of the season really concerns me, if the rumours are true then we will have start next season will 3 or 4 players !!


From a thread called Rumours on the next page, I dont see the Mods havinng a go on this particular thread although its saying the same things pretty much. Dual Rules.

As I have said above there is a MASSIVE difference between word of mouth and writing something on a public forum. A lot can be lost in the translation between the spoken word and written text. Sarcasm for example. Players don't deserve things they may have said in confidence posted on a public forum.

I appreciate this and it stays as confidence, the players name will not be disclosed.

i think the term knowledge is power springs to mind. i agree, there was no need to post this on the forum. maybe we all no different things about certain players, but most of us keep it to ourselves, until it comes into the public domain. I dread to think what our future signings make of our forum sometimes. it's no wonder some don't want to come to us

Cant see the point of all this to be honest. Are you just looking for controversy to criticise the club or are you a true fan merely trying to create debate? The club needs positives at this time and not talk such as this. Please leave it until the end of the season and we can all get behind the team with unity for now.

A/ Totally wrong time of the season for this
B/ Unless you name the source its hear say
C/ & probably the main 'axe to grind' I have.
Way way way too many times more un scruplous players in team sports use blogs/forums to get back at clubs, enhance negoations or pre empt them.
Id make sure yer not a victim of either before announcing stuff on here.......

1st-.This season is not over yet!
2nd-.The club is likely to be a bit short of Cash due to things that have happened- No Pre Season games, Ostick Situation, Early knock out of rail cup.
3rd-.Maybe the people running the club do not want to get the club in to debt just to keep/sign certain players. IF a player wants to play at fax then he will fit in with what fax want. I am happy for the club to keep us out of debt!

Can we leave the rumours on this MB until after the season?

While link telecom going bust is unfortunate, in my opinion prospective cup runs should not be factored into our budget

If a high earner has to leave s be it, in the long term it seems more in our interest to direct funds towards nurturing new talent

exactly, after season ends they wont be rumours as all will come out then.
til then, c,mon fax.

Totally. And who knows, we may be due a windfall

Including suitable replacements for Halifax Insurance and the ill fated Link Telecom

If things are that bad how come we payed a fee for Barlow and we gave out free tickets to tick the box for super league when we need to pay the tax on it?

Of course i am a true fan, Season ticket holder for years now, i get dead excited days before each game and as one member said, i was just trying to debate this point. I am not going to say the source of the information as do not want any ill feelings toward him from the club. I was merely stating concern as a fax fan and i am sure i am entitled to express that, even if my timing on this is lets say, somewhat short of the mark.

In retrospect it was more of a reaction to what i heard rather than common sense prevailing.

Well if this player really wanted to stay at fax surely he'd be willing to take a bit of a pay cut??

Also even if it is from the player himself, apparently Ben Black said himself that Misi was signing to fax and that turned out to be false. Let's just wait and see. When I read the 1st post I had an idea who you meant and recently that player seems to be hinting on facebook about going home...please god let it not be him

Best player leaving?surely rudd isnt going just yet

.if it is true and we are struggling financially then why are paying fees to sign players?

There quite a lot of people on here referring to players on facebook. Do any of you actually know players or do you just randomly add them because they play for Fax and you support them?? Seems really odd.

Whilst I do not doubt your honesty or integrity in starting this post have you considered the possibility of Facebook Rape whereby a 3rd party acceses the victims FB account via the victims own phone. This is one reason why u should never keep your FB account open.

Fuller explanations are found in various web search engines and there is a FB page on it

It was in response to i direct private message that i sent to said player, responding directly to what i was asking along with bits and bats.
