Shocking business if Millers on that, you sure its not 260k over 3 years that would seem more reasonable but even thats on the high side for a project player. The guys not worth over 100k a year

I've nothing but positives to say about Gary Hetherington. Might be past his use by date as thr head of a club, but as a person he's amazing. I've spoken to him on a number of occasions about support for fund raisers and he's nothing but supportive. And you always feel like he remembers you. A great human being at a time when there's doesn't seem to be a lot of them around

I’ve been really busy with work etc so not had chance to catch up with my source until yesterday. So Blease & Hetherington are really pushing to sign Watkins but it all depends on dispensation on the cap as we have no wriggle room at all apparently which is a bit of a shock considering we’ve released 10 players and only brought in 5 signings however I think this shows that a fair chunk of our squad is on top money and some probably overpaid for what they produce. If Watkins was to resign for Leeds 50k of his wage would be payed by the RFL due to being club trained. The Harvey Livett Signing seems unlikely now as Leeds are fully focusing trying to get the Watkins deal over the line. Finally injury report and it’s the usual case of us been told Jarred O’Connor- likely return between round 3-6 Alfie Edgell- no return date yet from fractured jaw Ned McCormack- knock unknown how serious Ben Littlewood- knock unknown how serious Jake Connor- knock not thought to be serious and should play this week Lachie Miller- return to play round 1-2 We’d have to have some serious rotten luck if we lost all 3 fullback options to injury.

Didn't Littlewood have surgery on his hamstring in December?

[/quote:3o9acc5j] Isn't the club trained dispensation capped at £100k per year, and we are already at that limit? I'm also confused about the lack of cap space. Blease has said publicly several times that we are still in the market for another signing, if the right player comes along. Is he wrong, or simply making it up?
